Problem/Strange behavior by renaming sheet
I recently discovererd a behavior in Excel 2016 where I'm not sure if it is "works as designed" or a faulty behavior: Two open workbooks Rename a sheet in the first book (Original name "Sheet1") ...

Hi Bernhard,
My guess that's since by default Excel 2016 opens each new workbook in the same instance. If you start new instance for the second workbook it works - rename without Enter and clicking in same workbook, go on second one, return back on first and we sheet keeps new name.

Hello Sergej,
thanks a lot for the quick reply.
We fought so hard for this feature over the past. And that is the reason why I raised the question "works as designed" or faulty behavior? Problably nobody paid attention when they changed the document Interface. And of course I admit the described way is not a way everyone works every day. xD
