Hi,
My name is Christapher and i use smart sheets to run my company and keep up with all of my data and a few minutes ago i created a filter to try and print out a report on one of my drivers. I also deleted a couple of columns at the same time so the driver could not see them. Well when i went back to see my sheet as normal those columns would never come back.
