Unable to delete content of a column
Hi, Has there been a feature change?
I used to be able to click on the column header and hit delete and the contents would be deleted leaving the column blank
Now when i do it it only deletes the top cell?
Any help or comments would be appreciated
Thanks
Dave

You can delete columns, make sure you are actually selecting the column with the column menu rather than the cell of the top most row. Note that you need to be a licensed user to delete columns.
