First I have to say that I’m loving the Glide and this community. I´ve never ever seen a so active community that really support us. Well, unless I don’t know, my tab has over 30 columns and I´d like to add a new column between 2 in the beginning since I added, but it added in the end. So I have to drag to the beginning where I´d like to put it. Got it? ---

I agree. It would be nice if we could right-click a column and `select insert a column here`. > ---

You can always rename the column you want to move , adding for instance… move. The same with the column immediate after where you want to insert the new column. Then filter columns by …move…and you get the 2 columns. Finally just drag the new column to the left… And remove …move…from names. ---

This is a really handy technique to be aware of. Especially when you combine it with a consistent column naming scheme. I usually use a common prefix with all my non-basic columns that identifies the column type. For example, all of my User Specific Columns will be `usc-xxx`, and my Relation columns will be `rel-xxx`. That, combined with the above, makes it very easy to organise my columns 🙂 ---

Closing this one, as it is a duplicate of the below: > [@Glide Table: add a column where you want it](https://community.glideapps.com/t/glide-table-add-a-column-where-you-want-it/22589): > > Nothing fancy here, it would just be nice to be able to choose where a new column is placed / inserted in the Glide Table, instead of it always landing at the end of the tab. Case use: I have one tab that has over 50 columns in it and, when creating new ones, it’s a bit of a pain to have to drag it all the way to the left so that it’s positioned where I need it to be for ease of reference and use when I could just put it where I need / want it in the first place. ---
