getActiveSheetIndex

public int getActiveSheetIndex()

gets the tab whose data is actually seen when the sheet is opened. This may be different from the "selected sheet" since excel seems to allow you to show the data of one sheet when another is seen "selected" in the tabs (at the bottom).

This method makes sure that if the removed sheet was active, another sheet will become active in its place. Furthermore, if the removed sheet was the only selected sheet, another sheet will become selected. The newly active/selected sheet will have the same index, or one less if the removed sheet was the last in the workbook.
