Issues changing rows/columns
I have owner permissions on a smartsheet that I need to make adjustments to. I need to delete/rename columns, etc. The options aren't coming up for me to use. Is there something different I should be doing? I didn't create the sheet but I am set up as an owner, so it should work, right?

If you are in fact the owner of the sheet then you should be able to, but if you did not create the sheet (unless someone transferred ownership), then you are not the owner and are restricted to the permissions given to you by the owner.
I would start by double checking exactly what permission level you have.

Hi,
You might be set up as System Admin on your account but not the owner of that particular sheet. You can click the Share button in the upper-right corner of that sheet to check your permissions. You need at least Admin permissions (and you also need to have a license) in order to be able to delete or rename columns.
More on sheet-level permissions can be found in the help center: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/1155182-sharing-permission-levels
Also keep in mind that you can't change the column names of a report. More information on reports here: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/522214-creating-reports
