How to Delete Multiple Worksheets in Excel

Today, I accidentally added multiple worksheets in my Excel workbook. After some time I noticed that my workbook became a large file. Then I started to delete unwanted worksheets one by one. In my mind came a question how I can delete multiple worksheets in Excel workbook at once. After researching a lot I find the solution.

There may be two cases:

  1. Sheets to be deleted are consecutive/ adjacent
  2. Sheets are non-consecutive/non- adjacent

To delete Consecutive/Adjacent worksheets:

If you want to delete multiple sheets and these are consecutive then follow this process:

  1. Click on the First sheet tab to be deleted.
  2. Hold down the SHIFT key
  3. Click on the last sheet to be deleted
  4. Right Click of the mouse on the Sheet Tab
  5. Select Delete

To delete Non-Consecutive/Non-Adjacent worksheets:

If you want to delete multiple sheets and these are non-consecutive/non-adjacent then follow this process:

  1. Click on the First sheet tab to be deleted.
  2. Hold the CTRL key
  3. Click on the each additional sheet to be deleted
  4. Right Click of the mouse on the Sheet Tab
  5. Select Delete
