Use this interactive demo to learn how to name and save a title in your Excel worksheet.

Quick summary

Adding a title to a Microsoft Excel worksheet helps organize and identify your document through the built-in Properties panel. You can set a custom title in just a few clicks via the File menu without altering any spreadsheet data.


Steps

  1. While your Microsoft Excel worksheet is open, navigate to the menu bar and click File.
  2. Select Properties from the list of options.
  3. Click the Summary tab to proceed.
  4. Enter a unique name into the Title input field for your Excel document.
  5. Click OK to apply the changes and save the title to your worksheet.

📌 Why this matters

Adding a document title in Microsoft Excel through the Properties panel makes it easier to identify, organize, and manage workbooks — especially in shared or large-scale environments. The Title field in Excel's Summary tab stores metadata that improves file searchability and professional presentation. This five-step process requires no formulas or formatting changes, making it accessible for users at any skill level. Properly titled Excel files also improve workflow efficiency when collaborating across teams or archiving documents.
