GDocs Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

Note on references : references are of the form : <sheetname>!<column>($)<row>($).

I'm reasonably certain that the $ must appear before the column or row you wish to be absolute, not after it.

And you're right. *facepalm*

Why can't you print straight from GDocs? Why must you download it first? >.>

Why do word documents downloaded from GDocs to print have the format all messed up?!? X_X

...? Gdocs prints directly for me.

It never does for me. If I use the browser's file print it comes up as a completely empty page. If I hit print from GDocs's print button it makes me download it into Adobe and open it from Adobe. This occurs on both my home's Macs and Linux computers as well as my school's Windows computers.

Maybe browser dependant? Try chrome?

I've tried Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and IE...

I have seriously no idea then. I've used the print under file command and had absolutely no problem whatsoever. Printed perfectly fine. No downloads.

I have no issues with any method (from Docs, from browser, to PDF...) of printing from GDocs.  Seems it is likely a software/driver sort of problem as opposed to "simple answer".  :s

First, sorry for double post.  This really doesn't fit as an edit to my last post though.

GDocs - I discovered today (on accident, of course) how to 'tab' between sheets in a workbook on the Google Spreadsheet program.  Use Ctrl+Shift+PgUp or Ctrl+Shift+PgDn to scroll through them.  In Excel, this is without the shift key but in browsers (where GDocs live) that goes between browser tabs!  Stumbled upon the GDocs method today and thought I would share (possibly everyone but me already knew this?).

TL;DR - Ctrl+Shift+PgUp or Ctrl+Shift+PgDn to change sheets in a workbook on GDocs Spreadsheet.


(Can the above really be too long to read?  Maybe, I suppose.)
