1.4.4 Switching to Another Worksheet

The tabs on the bottom of the workbook window show the various worksheets in the workbook. Clicking a tab switches to the next worksheet.

Click the appropriate tab at the bottom of the workbook window. Use the scroll button if necessary to see additional worksheets. You can also use the key combinations Ctrl Pg Up and Ctrl Pg Dn to cycle through the tabs. If you’ve already opened the worksheet, clicking the tab switches to it immediately. If you haven’t opened it yet, Discoverer Desktop searches the business area to find the data that belongs on the worksheet. Because each worksheet involves a query search of the business area, opening a worksheet for the first time takes a few moments while the search is completed. A dialog box reminds you that the search will take place. Figure 1–21 Open a Worksheet 1-14 Oracle Fusion Middleware Users Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Desktop 2.

If you decide not to open a worksheet and click Cancel, but then later click on the worksheet tab to open it, this dialog box does not appear. Choose Sheet | Refresh Sheet to retrieve the data.

1.5 Saving a Workbook

Saving a workbook saves all of its changes. You have two options: ■ To save a workbook, choose File | Save. The changes are saved and the workbook remains open. ■ To close and save a workbook at the same time, choose File | Close. If you haven’t made changes to any worksheet in the workbook, it closes. If the workbook contains any unsaved changes on any worksheet, a dialog box reminds you to save the changes. Figure 1–22 Save Workbook Reminder Click Yes to save the changes; click No to close the workbook without saving the changes; click Cancel to keep the workbook open without saving the changes.
