Inserting Columns into the Datasheet

RockWorks | Utilities | Columns | Insert Column(s)
Right-click | Insert Column(s)

Use this program to insert a new, blank, untitled column in a RockWorks Utilities datasheet. 

! This tool is not available for the Borehole Manager data tables being edited as a spreadsheet, such as the I-Data or P-Data tables, because the columns are being pulled from the borehole database.  See Defining I-Data Columns, Defining P-Data Columns, and Defining T-Data columns for information about adding columns to the database.

Menu Options

• Insert blank column to the left of column: Choose the name or number of the column to the left of which you wish to insert a new column. This will default to the column where the cursor is currently located. 

Step-by-Step Summary

1. Access the RockWorks Utilities program tab.
2. Open the datasheet to be edited, if necessary.
3. Click in a cell in the column before which the new column is to be inserted.
4. Click on the Columns menu above the datasheet and select the Insert Column(s) option, or right-click and select Insert Column(s).

6. Click OK.

The program will insert a blank column with an "Untitled" header, moving all subsequent columns and column titles to the right. The file header will be updated such that each column’s settings will be moved along with it.
