I am creating a table that
1) reads a current table
2) adds 10, null filled, columns to the current table
3) adds 1 column that I want to populate with =counta(newcol1:newcol10)
4) write new table
I have no problem with steps 1, 2, and 4 but I cannot figure out how to populate the final column with a counta formula
The purpose of the new table is for the user to mark an appropriate column and the last column to show the number of columns selected.
What I have done to get around the problem for now is to create my table with steps 1, 2, and 4 and then manually populate the last column with the counta formula.
I would really like to be able to add the formula as the table is being built in the query.
thanks for your assistance,
