The votes are in, and hyphens it will be. I don't know what you mean by columns. Other than Athens and Rome, I draw a blank.

Use the Full Editor below.

I think if after you compose your post, click on Full Editor & Preview, instead of submit, and there should be a bigger toolbox

or prior to making your post, is probably better....

I can see i opened the hornet's nest and made it harder for you, tormato. I'm sorry. I'm going back to lurking.

Dear Tormato,

Please excuse my morning rambling, I hadn't had my first coffee. Whatever format or system of user input that works well for you is great. I was just feeling a little leery over the prospect of having to scroll through hundreds of posts to find out what everyone is looking for and subsequent updates that follow. A Master Sheet on first post is perfect.

Do you come with English subtitles?

As a quasi-Luddite, I understand basically nothing you said (ask MissS ). It sounds good, whatever it is.

The master sheet will eventually stay, and be, the first post, for it will be the only post, as all comments and questions will be deleted after we get to where we want to be.

There's ways to do that, like the address list from the Houzz seed swap.

I searched for an editable spreadsheet tool but didn't find an easy way to make it happen.

I know if you make a personal SS and copy it over it's editable but the descriptions won't line up. If you make every entry in the same column it works like this if you post it as Text.

This is what it looks like as an image

That is a google spreadsheets document supposedly editable by all. I don't know how to make it so all can edit it, though. Working on it; could use help

Is it now set up so anyone who uses the link can edit it?

It doesn't work for me

Are your real initials MB? I think you tried before I got it set up. Would you please try once more?

No still does not work

I removed what used to be post #30; not sure what was going on there. Sorry.
It showed the Google docs spreadsheet for the wishlist. Here is a different URL:
(I also edited the URL in a previous post.)

The link in post #35 worked for me (I added a new line for interesting cherry tomatoes, just as a test, Nan).

My DH added Pizza at the bottom as a test.

Would it be better to have separate lists for separate vegetables?

1 main list for toms

as opposed to every veg in 1 list. just my 2 cents humble opinion.

You can post a normal link if you use the link/url button, paste the link, highlight it and click.

I'd like to propose a section where anyone could use help growing out certain crop varieties, either for preservation, swap, food bank, seed library or distribution purposes.

There will have to be a priority. The tomatoes should be at the top of the list.

After that, do we go with other very popular items, like peppers next? And, then perhaps legumes, cucumbers, etc...? Or, should listings after tomatoes be categorized in alphabetical order?

Much like when I run a swap, I'll just be a host. It'll be your master wish list, so input is requested.
