The columns contain the following information

It's also possible to directly jump to the Sheet Table or from the Sheet Table to the desired sheet or the Sheet tree.

 

Right-click on the desired row in the Sheet Table and select the Jump to command to open the desired sheet.

 

To activate the sheet in the Sheet tree of the Project window, select the Jump to Sheet tree or double-click on the desired sheet.
