Hello Sapphireslinger, sorry for not replying earlier, but I thought you were having success with Shiraz etc.
I don't use spreadsheets enough to offer a solution but I understand what you're trying to do. I think you may have to cut and paste the formula into each F cell. There is probably a way to include a formula, but I'm not sure how to do this. Further reading of the plugin's notes may explain this. As well as using the spreadsheet prototype, the *Demo: Tabulator* example may be useful to you as you can use a filter to include each tiddler to add data to the table. You could also create a button or form to enter this data. Hopefully, one of the other TW users can offer more help.
