Can't Recreate Deleted Column / Disconnect Deleted Column
Hello,
I created a "Latest Comment" column. It didn't appear to be working so I thought I would delete and recreate it. Now I'm getting an error saying, "This column was deleted. Disconnect the deleted column before creating a new one."
How do I disconnect a column?
Thanks! Todd

To delete the latest comment column, right-click the column and select Remove column.
If you want to add the latest comment column back to the sheet, you must first delete the connection that populates the column with comments.
To delete the connection:
- Save and refresh the page.
- or -
- On the top right corner of your screen, select the Conversations icon.
- At the top of the Conversations pane, select the More icon.
- Select Manage Latest Comment column > Disconnect.
