The Add method creates a new worksheet under a default name like SheetN, where N is a number that is greater by 1 than the maximum number used in worksheet names of the same type. To change the worksheet name, use the Worksheet.Name property.

To insert a new worksheet to the specified position in the collection, use the WorksheetCollection.Insert method.

To remove a worksheet from the collection, use the WorksheetCollection.Remove or WorksheetCollection.RemoveAt method.

Example

This example demonstrates how to add a new worksheet to a workbook. To do this, use the WorksheetCollection.Add method of the WorksheetCollection collection accessed via Workbook.Worksheets.

To insert a worksheet at the specified position in the WorksheetCollection collection, call the WorksheetCollection.Insert method with the passed worksheet zero-based index.

To specify a worksheet name, use the Worksheet.Name property or pass the worksheet name to the WorksheetCollection.Add or WorksheetCollection.Insert method as a parameter. When naming a worksheet, take into account the constraints listed in the How to: Rename a Worksheet document.
