Keep auto number as number, do not turn it into text when using Numerical Places.
When creating an auto-number column, if you choose anything different than Numerical Places being 0, it will detect the column as text. Therefore, making calculations with the auto-number column behaves different depending on the properties used. For example, the formula =[Row ID]@row + 1 shows different outcomes as the…

How to find a column
Hi One of my sheets has around 40 columns in it! And sometimes it's hard to locate a specific column (given the sheet has 40+ columns!)

For example,…

Using Sheet Summary To Populate Columns - and Have Same Restrictions
I'm using a sheet summary to add some global sheet data (i.e., it's not associated with rows, it's associated at sheet level.) I've got a sheet summary contact list field where I add the project manager - then it populates the top cell in a column. I then use this cell as an email recipient in a workflow. However, it…
