HOW DO I CREATE ROW HEADERS that cross multiple cells?
Can I eliminate the "lines" between cells to give the appearance of a header? Can I create a header that automatically crosses several columns since there is no "MERGE" option??
Update Form Not Working
I have confirmations from two weeks ago that I updated the Smartsheets through an update email that was sent; however, my updates don’t appear.

Anyway to disable keyboard shortcut ctrl+1?
I use chrome and I use the keyboard shortcuts for switching between tabs. The first tab from the left is accessed with ctrl+1, but in smartsheets this hides and unhides the toolbar. Is there anyway to disable this functionality so I can switch to the first tab quickly? I use pinned tabs so I can't make shartsheets the 1st…
Automatic letter send when drop down field is changed
I would like to set up an automatic "customized" email (letter) to the person who filled out the form (they submit their email into form). I would like this to occur when I change a drop down field in the spreadsheet.
Is anyone using an Air Pen or scanner to add data to a sheet?
We'd like to enter data from hard copy files into a sheet. We've found air pens or scanners, but we're not sure if we can use them with Smartsheet.
