Naming a sheet version
You can create named versions of your sheets, to make it easier to identify a specific version of the file.
To name the current version of the file:
Clic on the File menu
Choose Version History
Choose Name Current Version
Type a name for the version and click on Save
You can click on the ellipses next to a version of the sheet to name that version or make a copy of that version of the file. This allows you to keep an old version of the file without losing the changes made to it after that version.
