Editing multiple sheets at once

Hi,

I've been working with over 50 sheets in a workspace. Each sheet contains info of a different country.

Now if I make a change in one of the columns in a sheet, I have to replicate the change in each of the files individually.

Is there a way to make a change across the same column in all the sheets at once?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Adarsh

Ok, I found it. Classic case of submit something for help, then find the answer. I think what may have happened previously, is that I turned on all the filters, but since there isn't one for a Deleted Row, maybe the Deleted Row was hidden. When I came back, I didn't click anything on the filters for the Activity Log and when scrolling through looking for the 'magic' delete word, I found the record I was looking for.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":447,"urlcode":"activity-log","name":"Activity Log"}]},{"discussionID":108801,"type":"question","name":"Adding users to our account if they are already licensed on another account","excerpt":"Hiya, Couldn't find an answer to my exact question, so hoping someone can help.

Excellent, and yes, I am too! Thanks!<\/p>

I'd recommend using Dynamic View.<\/p>

Share it with your company domain.<\/p>

When the user accesses it, they would only see their own submissions.<\/p>
