Combine Contacts from multiple columns into a single cell
Allowing contact columns to be combined into a multi-select contact column would make team management and index sheets much more useful. If Columns 2 through 10 on my sheet are all contact columns, a formula like =Contact2@row + Contact3@row + Contact6@row should produce a multicontact cell, not a text cell. That would…
