Multiplan: Deleting an Active Worksheet PSS ID Number: Q67819 Article last modified on 01-10-1991 PSS database name: D_MPlan

3.X 4.00 4.01 4.20

MS-DOS

Summary:

You can delete a spreadsheet or worksheet while the file is active on the screen by choosing Transfer Delete.

If you want to delete the file while it is in use, save the file to the same name or to a new filename before exiting Multiplan or loading another file.

In Multiplan version 4.00 and later versions, you can recover the deleted file by doing one of the following:

Exit Multiplan Clear the active window Load another worksheet file

Any of these actions will give the following message:

Enter Y to save edits, N to lose edits or press Esc to cancel

This message gives the user a chance to recover the accidentally deleted file (press Y to recover the deleted file).

In Multiplan 3.00 and earlier versions, the above message will not appear. In this case, the file should be saved before the program is exited or another file is loaded.

There is no way of recovering deleted worksheets. Multiplan does not automatically create backup files of worksheets.
