Hi :) We all get all messages to the list so you can respond to more than 1 person in a single post. If you are specifically talking to just one person in 1 paragraph and then another in the next you could use @ signs, for example " @Tom blah, blah
@Jay blah de blah @Everyone blah " I don't know why we don't do that sort of thing on this mailing list but i've seen it a lot in other projects. I gather that gwibber or twitter or something uses something similar for their main addresses so it might get confusing for some people. Maybe that's why i haven't seen it here much. Until my recent move to GMail i would only see 1 message at a time so i would reply to each individual one. It's taking me a looong while to get used to the much more sophisticated approach of threaded mailings but its' helped me cut down on traffic quite a lot! Since you are running into problems with the old spreadsheet might it be worth considering 1. starting a fresh new one and then 2. copy&paste or import by Csv only the data you really need access to most often and 3. keeping the old file as an archive to refer to. I found that when moving from 3.3.x branch to 3.4, and again from somewhere around 3.4.x to the next ones, sometimes weird little hitches happened that were smoothed out by starting afresh. Maybe it's because so many forks of LibreOffice merged at around that time because i've not found similar issues with any upgrades since then. Of course it could have been just my imagination or unfamiliarity with LibreOffice because i hadn't used it much before the forking. With Excel i found that spreadsheets over around 5 sheets tended to become a but unwieldy (people couldn't cope with the tabs disappearing under the scroll-bar or having the scroll-bar so short) so i would either break them up (the spreadsheets, not the people) or convert them to databases depending on which seemed more appropriate and/or easier. So there are 2 good(ish) and probably many other good reasons for breaking up the spreadsheet but doubtless there are many good reasons to keep all your data together! So it's just a suggestion that might well not be possible.
