Can you search for a column name?

Gina Adrien

I can't find an answer to this question which means it is likely obvoius to everyone but me: can the search function search for column names? I'm trying to clean up our sheets so that reports work, but there are almost 200 unique column titles currently in use. I'd like to clean them up, but I can't find (for example) the sheet that has a column named "Column 18".

Hi @Gina Adrien

Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment

As a possible workaround, you could maybe export the sheet and search in Excel.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!
