Only one tab displaying in spreadsheets stored on Dropbox
This morning when we open our spreadsheets on dropbox only one tab is being displayed and we can't access the other tabs on the sheet , if we download the file and open it all tabs are displayed. They spreadsheets are saved as xlsx files on Dropbox.
Any idea's why this has suddenly happened ? All were fine yesterday
Hi everybody,
Our team has made some changes, so please let us know if you're still having issues.
To clarify: there is no data corruption (i.e., we are not treating the sheets as a range within a single file). This behavior seems to be our Google editor deprecation banner "hiding the sheets tab," and we'll be adjusting this soon.
Thank you for your feedback!
Sam

Just adding in that my company also has this issue and also desperately needs it fixed.
Excel files opened on Dropbox web so viewed via Google Sheets - a crucial tool for several team-members working on a spreadsheet at the same time.Latest Chrome update on MacOS.

Has anyone received an update about this? We still can't work and haven't had any contact from dropbox regarding a fix

Nancy is there phone number we can contact concerning this issue we are having. This issue has been highlighted since yesterday and we have had no updates on progress on getting it resolved in about 4 hours. Well actually you may say there has been no resolution offered at all. I need to speak with someone directly as my business is being affected.

When I try to open a shared Excel document from DropBox, it opens it in a browser window using Google Sheets and could edit from there. I do not pay for Microsoft Office so I cannot edit from there. My hands are tied as of right now and I need to access all of my tabs.

I am having the same issue and it appeared overnight as other users have mentioned. It's definitely a change on the Dropbox side. The tabs are gone but I can get to them by clicking the down arrow in the upper left hand corner and then selecting from the list. It seems to be treating the sheets as "ranges" within one file rather than separate pages.
