How to insert a new worksheet?

In Microsoft Excel, the easiest and most common way to insert a new worksheet is by clicking the “+” (plus) icon located at the bottom of the Excel window, next to the sheet tabs. When you click this icon, Excel immediately adds a new blank worksheet to your workbook — typically named Sheet2, Sheet3, and so on.

Here’s a breakdown of the other options:

• 
  

  File → New is used to create a completely new workbook, not a worksheet within the same file.

  
  


• 
  

  Ctrl + E is used for Flash Fill, not for inserting a new sheet.

  
  


• 
  

  Alt + Shift + S is not a valid shortcut for adding a new worksheet.
