Unable to open hidden Excel sheets

Hello,
Here is my problem:
I accidentally hid all the sheets in my Excel.
Result: I can’t display them again, all the commands are grayed out and when I open the document, a message appears saying “The workbook cannot be opened or repaired by Microsoft Excel because it is corrupt.”
Can you please help me???

Hello
You say I accidentally hid all the pages of my Excel., are you rather talking about the tabs/sheets?

It is impossible in Excel to hide ALL the tabs... you always need at least 1.
Therefore, it is impossible to close an Excel document without a tab and to save that error.

To display the hidden tabs, a right-click on the remaining tab offers you to unhide...

See you soon

Hello, thank you for this response, but I don't have an open sheet. I clicked on "hide" thinking I was hiding just one, and all the sheets disappeared. When I currently open the doc, it is empty.

In this case, it seems that the format has changed and I can no longer access it. It is in .ods format, is that normal?

Hello
ODS format is an OpenDocument format mainly managed by LibreOffice or OpenOffice...
Excel can open them, but that doesn't change the fact that an Excel workbook/document must contain at least one sheet/tab!!
Catch you later

Hello
But in LibreOffice and OpenOffice, it is also impossible to "hide" all the sheets/tabs, the hide option disappears on the last sheet/tab

Okay, in that case, I don’t understand why all my sheets disappeared when I clicked hide. Moreover, I can no longer use the commands.

Hello
But if you used the Hide Function for the entire workbook in the View menu, you should still see the Show button in the menu/command bar by clicking on the View menu.
See you!
