Remove Column
The Remove Column tool allows you to delete an entire column from your dataset by specifying its index. This is useful for cleaning up unnecessary fields or removing sensitive information before sharing your data.
Key Features
- Column index selection – Enter the column number you want to remove.
- Applies to all rows – The specified column is removed from every row in the grid.
- Non-destructive editing – Other columns remain unchanged; only the selected column is removed.
- Error-safe – Prevents removal if the column index is invalid or outside the dataset range.
How to Use
- Open the Remove Column dialog.
- Enter the index of the column you want to delete (e.g.,
0 for the first column). - Click Remove Column – the column will be removed from the dataset.
- Click Close to dismiss the dialog.
