Excel has no way to organize tabs
Excel has no built-in way to organize worksheet tabs. If you work with workbooks that have 20, 50, or 100+ worksheets — financial models, data imports, multi-department reports — you're stuck scrolling left and right through an endless row of tiny tabs.
You can color-code tabs, but that doesn't reduce the visual noise. You can right-click and "Select All Sheets," but there's no way to group related sheets into folders, collapse them when you don't need them, or create a logical hierarchy.
This is a problem Microsoft has never addressed. Power users have asked for tab grouping in UserVoice for years. The closest workaround — hiding sheets — is clunky and requires unhiding them individually.
The Solution
Drag, drop, collapse, done
SheetGuard adds a Tab Folders panel to your Excel sidebar. Create folders, drag worksheets into them, and collapse or expand groups with a single click.
Folders are stored in your workbook's custom properties — no external files, no cloud sync needed. When you share the workbook, the folder structure travels with it (if the recipient has SheetGuard installed).
The free tier includes 2 folders — enough to organize a typical workbook into "Input" and "Output" groups. Pro users get unlimited folders for complex workbooks.
