Newbie please help - is this possible
Hi there I'm new to smartsheet and I'm wondering if the following is possible... I'd like to have a template waiting in smartsheet.

Continous Merge (Real-Time)
Hi everyone, I am new to Smarthsheet, and I just figured out how to merge a Smartsheet with a Google Doc and automatically send it out in an email.

In calendar view, how do I get my all my text to fit? It won't wrap. When I export from Calendar view in excel, it comes to me in grid format. Exporting the Calendar view in an PDF format doesn't help becuase I cannot manipulate the text so that I can see it all. HELP!

Limit entry of % complete column
Is it possible to limit the entry of a % complete column to make my sheet more 'foolproof'? So only allow entries between 0 & 100 %? E.g.

Dependancy
Everytime I am attempting to change my predeccssors type (Finish -Start/finish-finsh etc) it tells me there is an error. "Circular Dependency". Can someone please give me a sample of how to setup? Thanks
