Oh! I never knew the two were different!

By the way, whenever I view my plant lists or someone else's, each plant takes up 3-4 lines, usually because the "Status" field takes 3-4 lines. In the public view, the photo takes up even more room.

Is there any way we can change column widths, or hide columns, so that we can see or print more compactly - ideally one plant on one line?

I tried to copy-past rows from the public view into a table in a document file, where I could delete and re-size columns. However, in my browser, I can only highlight one screen-full at a time. That does allow me to paste a "table" into documents like Open Office.

Being able to "select whole table" with a few clicks would also be great, because then I could paste it into an Open 0ffice or other editing programs. I've tested this a few rows at a tim e and it would serve the purpose.

Being able to export a category of a plant list as a tab-separated textfile would be really cool!

Hmm, if that export could pull check-boxes and comments from the Plant Databse, or LINKS, that would also be cool, and filterable and sortable and searchable.

Also, if I filtered and extracted some of the rows, and sent those to someone else, the ATP links into the Plant DBF would follow along ...
