Tables

Tables are a range of cells that constitute a single object with its own name, internal structure (areas) and formatting style.

Tables have a unique name within the document (by default, Table1, Table2, and so forth) and consist of the following areas:

  • Header row
  • Data area
  • Total row

The table name, column and area names are used in structured references.

When working with a table, you can perform the following operations:

  • Edit column names. Column names are automatically updated in the structured references of the table. If the name you enter already exists in the table, a sequence number will be automatically added to it, for example, the name “Date” will become “Date1”.
  • Insert rows and columns between the existing rows and columns (but not at the end of the table).
  • Copy tables within one document or from document to document, provided that both documents are open in MySpreadsheet. The copied table is automatically assigned a unique name. In all structured references, the name of the original table is automatically replaced with the name of the copied table.
  • Quickly configure column sorting and filtering using automatically generated sort and filter buttons in column headers. You cannot sort rows in tables.
  • Customize the table: Choose a design style from those available in the collection, include or exclude table areas.
  • Expand the range of the table by adding new data to adjacent cells.
  • Select the type of calculation in the total row.
  • Convert a table to a regular range of data.
