Don't make it hard for yourself @cathybird. I, for one, am quite happy to stick with the linked lists. Who knows mse might think again about the new 'improved' upgrade. 🤞

@maman (and @everyone), you're not wrong. I did my best today trying to set up a table that might work (you can import tables from excel/word/google sheets or set one up in MSE and I tried both). It works OK for small tables, but bigger ones are so awkward. There doesn't seem to be any way of making the font size smaller (which you would think would be part of a "rich text" editor) so none of the names fitted across the first column, and it wasn't letting me make the column wider without starting with the column on the extreme right and working in. Then when I copied and pasted it to see how that worked, it lost all that formatting anyway! With the best will in the world I think it's too hard, will stick to link only for now, sorry everyone. There might be another way though, I'll see. It's such a shame because actually the totals/emojis could look quite good as a table if the text editor wasn't so clunky. :/

Absolutely agree, don't make it too hard or too time consuming for yourself @cathybird, as im sure im speaking for everyone here that we're all SO grateful that you keep regular updates 🥰.
I personally wouldn't even know where to start!
Im enjoying a 🍷or 2 today, so I'm finishing on 28/31 for January please.
I'll stay on 21 AFD for February as I think 28 for January was just a fluke, and for me, I'm probably better having a target to be accountable to.

What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?4
