Resource View / Completed Projects
If a task/project assigned to a person has been checked off as 100% complete before the assigned deadline, is there a way for the Resource View to update in order to show that person being available during that time, without going to the sheet and updating the duration/end date of the task? This way that person could be…
Improved Way to Alphabetize a List Using SMALL()
I have a project dashboard that links in data from several other sheets to show an overview of project financials and time charges. In a couple of cases I needed to sort the results by project number which includes four numerical characters, occasionally followed by a single alphabetical character, none of which I could…
Maximum number of sheets pulled into report?
Theoretical question - is there a maximum number of sheets I can use to pull data into a report? Say we have 300 active projects that all require their own sheets, but I'd like a report to pull a specific set of data from each of those projects (therefore each of those 300 sheets).

API - Bulk Operations Documentation
Does anyone have or know where I can get some information or an example on the Bulk Operations for the API? I am writing an app that outputs data to SmartSheet, however it seems to be a bit quick for SS as it throws errors saying it's already being updated by another process. It only succeeds if I put in a 300 ms delay. So…
Report Builder / Expanded Folders
I'm building a report for a Sight that will have the "Where" data updated often. right now, when I click Where, every single folder is expanded forcing me to close them one at a time and slog through a shared workspace that has folder I do not want to pull from. Is there a way to have all of the folders Closed by default…

Identify all cells that contain a formula?
I'm trying to look at all my formulas and am wondering if anyone knows of a way to (temporarily) highlight or identify every cell in a sheet that has any kind of formula in it.
