Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for tracking spreadsheet table cells from a base table to an organized table/organized table view, and updating of a formula reference based on the tracked cells are provided. In some embodiments, cells may be tracked to convert a first range of cells in the base table into a second range of cells in the organized table/organized table view, such that the second range of cells includes the same cells as the first range of cells, despite any reorganization of rows and columns. In some embodiments, a summary reference cell that provides a sub-group summary based upon the grouping within the organized table/organized table view may also be provided.
