I'm trying to do this in a thread, and I'm getting a "too many characters" error. Any suggestions on how to work around this would be appreciated!
Thanks!

copy/paste
I was hoping you would show up. :D
just @ me next time lol

so it depends on how big of a file you are trying to copy paste. can you show a screen shot?

each cell itself is going to count for characters beyond the actual characters in the cell, because the coding behind the scenes is using characters to format your table when pasted

I'd put it in a Google Sheet, make it view-only, and paste the link. The forum does not love uploaded files.
