The following code example shows how to add a button to the page and then adds an event handler to the button onClick event that displays the name of the worksheet where the selected range is located in the browser status bar. The code example assumes that you are working with Excel Web Access Web Parts on SharePoint Server 2013.

<script type="text/javascript">
 
var ewa = null;
 
// Add event handler for onload event.
if (window.attachEvent) 
{ 
    window.attachEvent("onload", ewaOnPageLoad);    
} 
else 
{ 
    window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", ewaOnPageLoad, false); 
}

// Add event handler for applicationReady event.
function ewaOnPageLoad() 
{ 
Ewa.EwaControl.add_applicationReady(onApplicationReady); 
} 

function onApplicationReady()
{        
    // Get a reference to the Excel Services Web Part.
    ewa = Ewa.EwaControl.getInstances().getItem(0);                                     
}  

function getSheetNameButton()
{
    // Get the active range.
    var range = ewa.getActiveWorkbook().getActiveSelection();
    
    if (range != null)
    {
        if (range.getSheet() != null)
        {
            // Display name of range worksheet.
            window.status = "The selected range is on sheet " + range.getSheet().getName(); 
        }
        else
        {
            alert("Workbook is in named item view.");
        }
    }    
    else
    {
       alert("No range selected.");
    }    
}            

</script>
<input type="button" id="ShowSheetName" value="Show Sheet Name" onclick="getSheetNameButton()" />
