    I found your templates to be quite generic and unappealing.

  4. Tariq Ito

    I would like to add another page or tab to the downloaded template. How may I do that

    • Someka

      Thanks for your question! To add a new sheet, first, you have to unlock your template with the password provided in your product zip file. Then, display the Sheet tabs on your Excel file (because they are hidden in our templates):

      For Windows: Go to File > Options > Advanced, and under Display options for this workbook, and make sure the Show sheet tabs checkbox is selected.

      After displaying your sheet tabs, you can add/delete new sheets by clicking on the plus (+) sign.

      Hope this helps!
