Get sheet in Excel/OpenOffice by name #195

Closed mcarans closed 7 years ago

Is there a way to get a sheet by name rather than number?

@mcarans Hi. Not in current tabulator version. But I suppose it's possible to implement.

This is important because getting sheets by number is brittle if there are lots of sheets because you cannot be sure that the number will be fixed (eg. doc owner could copy sheet data to another sheet and rename sheets accordingly)
