Window properties, such as scroll bars, gridlines, and worksheet tabs can be turned on or off using Visual Basic commands. They are accessed as properties of the Window object. Some of these properties affect every worksheet in the window, while others affect only the active worksheet. This behavior is consistent with the behavior of the Window Options setting. To set these options, click Options on the Tools menu, and then click the View tab.

The following is a list of window properties that affect only the active worksheet in the window.

DisplayFormulas

DisplayGridlines

GridlineColor

DisplayHeadings

DisplayOutline

DisplayZeros

These properties are per sheet-window properties. To change these properties on each worksheet in the window, you must select each worksheet before changing the properties.
