What is SHEET function in Excel?

SHEET function is one of the Information functions in Microsoft Excel that returns the sheet number of the reference sheet.

Syntax of SHEET function

SHEET(value)

The SHEET function syntax has the following arguments.

  • Value(Optional): Value is the name of a sheet or a reference for which you want the sheet number. If value is omitted, SHEET returns the number of the sheet that contains the function.

SHEET formula explanation

  • SHEET includes all worksheets (visible, hidden, or very hidden) in addition to all other sheet types (macro, chart, or dialog sheets).
  • If the value argument is not a valid value, SHEET returns the #REF! error value. For example, =SHEET(Sheet1!#REF) will return the #REF! error value.
  • If the value argument is a sheet name that is not valid, SHEET returns the #NA error value. For example =SHEET(“badSheetName”) will return the #NA error value.
  • SHEET is not available in the Object Model (OM) because the Object Model already includes similar functionality.
