We’ll show you how to add columns in Google Sheets, including how to insert a single column to the left or right and how to add multiple columns to your sheet.

How to add rows, columns, and cells in Google Sheets Let's say you're a coin collector and organize your collection in Google Sheets.

The larger a spreadsheet gets, the more likely you'll want to start hiding rows or columns or maybe you've been given a sheet that has hidden rows or columns.

Learn how to hide columns or rows to reduce data entry errors, narrow focus, more easily compare data, or insert more columns or rows to increase the size of your Google Sheet.

How to sum in Google Sheets Adding up columns or rows of numbers is familiar to most spreadsheet programs. Google Sheets includes a built-in function named SUM to add the total value.

Google Sheets overrides the original data. If you want to use full names later, copy the rows, paste them to another column or sheet, and run the Split text to columns function.

You can easily freeze columns in Google Sheets on a computer or mobile device. The same methods can be used for unfreezing columns as well.

Google Sheets' freezing function allows you to pin not just the topmost row and leftmost column to your view but even create larger, more specific freeze-frames based on your preferences.
