Hello, I am looking to solve a consistent issue we have on Workvia where hidden rows are still counted in sum/subtotal formulas. One solution would be for us to use Subtotal 109 excel formula as a check to only calculate visible rows, but Workiva ...
I was working in a Wdesk spreadsheet, and I needed to combine cells that contained text into one cell with a delimiter between the text from each cell. However, some of the cells that I am trying to combine contained repeated text, so I thought i...
