Converting a Text Timestamp into a Numeric Timestamp Value
Problem: When timestamps are imported into smartsheet, the timestamp must be imported as a text field to retain its time aspect. Although the timestamp can be separated into a Date field and a Time field, this separation of Date and Time makes arranging the sheet into timestamp chronological order difficult. Solution:…

Copying Rows and their attachments work around
Currently Smartsheet doesn't have the ability to copy rows including their attachments. I've found a workaround that is much quicker than uploading all the attachments individually on other rows. This is especially useful if you have MANY rows that you need to copy including their attachments. Save your sheet as a new…

How I calculate HH:mm
Here's how I figured out HH:mm. I welcome all simplification suggestions. The combined formula in A38 is this monstrosity (but it works): =IFERROR(IF(INT(SUMIFS({Duration}, {CURWK}, 1, {Event Type}, A$37) / 60) < 10, "0" + INT(SUMIFS({Duration}, {CURWK}, 1, {Event Type}, A$37) / 60), INT(SUMIFS({Duration}, {CURWK}, 1,…

Turn Numbers Into Letters
Here's a handy formula to turn the numbers 1-26 into letters. Assume that the number you want to convert is in a column called "Number". In another column, create the following formula: =RIGHT(LEFT("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ", Number@row), 1) If you need to increment these beyond Z, it gets a little more complicated, but…

Poor Man's Datamesh
Prior to getting Datamesh, I devised a solution to transfer data from one page to another, without having matching columns. This process uses an intermediary sheet. It's kind of a pain to set up, but it works well and requires little to no maintenance. I still find some very small use cases where this comes in handy.…
