The Tab Pattern option in Savant allows you to dynamically select one or more tabs based on their names. This is useful for files with many tabs where you need to match specific naming conventions without manually selecting each one.
Configuration Options
Select Tab Pattern under the Tab Settings section.
Enter a pattern to match tab names. Patterns use wildcards to create flexible rules:
*(asterisk): Matches zero or more characters.Example:
Orders*matches tabs namedOrders_Q1andOrders_2024.
When to Use Tab Pattern
Use Tab Pattern when:
Your file(s) contains many tabs with predictable naming structures.
You want to dynamically include all tabs that follow a naming convention (e.g.,
Sales*,Data_202*).
If the selected tabs have inconsistent schemas, Savant will display an error. Use Common Headers to include only the shared columns across the matched tabs.
