- Elwyn Morris points out the benefits of hidden columns in PipeDream.
-
- "Many of my documents are ever growing and constantly revised in the
- light of new information gleaned. By having one (or more) columns
- (which can later be made invisible by making them of zero width) with
- coded references therein, subject matter can be sorted into groups or
- into logical sequence, even when each entry is simply written in
- haphazardly below the one previously entered. At the touch of a
- button, my often inconsequential jottings turn themselves into fully
- fledged lecture notes! I believe there was a program published some
- time ago which actually made a great feature of sorting random ideas
- into some sort of pattern, yet this facility is free within PipeDream.
- Further, a SUM or DCOUTNTA of various aspects can be appended which
- updates as new information is included. None of this is either a
- database or spreadsheet in the true sense, but it is invaluable to me."
-
- Elwyn asks, "Does anyone else use PipeDream in this way?"
