How to Properly Drag and Drop a Worksheet Tab in Excel

What will happen when you drag and drop a worksheet tab into another workbook WITHOUT holding the Ctrl key down?

Choices: A. The worksheet will be MOVED. B. The worksheet will be COPIED. C. Nothing will happen.

Answer:

It's definitely not C, so the correct answer is either A or B depending on what Ctrl does.

When you drag and drop a worksheet tab into another workbook WITHOUT holding the Ctrl key down, the worksheet will be MOVED, not COPIED. This means that the worksheet tab will be removed from its original workbook and placed into the destination workbook. It's important to be cautious when moving worksheets in Excel to avoid accidentally losing important data or disrupting the structure of your workbooks.
