I did what you said then made another plain column (EditCol) and bulk S&R from the plugboard sourced column into it. I now can populate the EditCol easily and change it how I like without messing up other stuff.
Heres why:
Plugboard sourced column that went to my reader:
"David Brunelle Short Story [2]: Beyond a Reasonable Doubt: A David Brunelle Legal Thriller Short Story (David Brunelle Legal Thriller Series)"
What I prefer to see and now is in my EditCol column:
"David Brunelle Short Story [2]: Beyond a Reasonable Doubt"
My next thing it to see if I can get the plugboard to use the my #editcol if populated and the current formula if not. Hope I'm not creating a monster (It's Alive!!
).
