That’s what every column is by default. You want to be able to use the features we sell for free—I’m sorry, we won’t offer that. ---

We do plan to eventually allow you to add regular columns that are not stored in the Google Sheet. ---

i created workaround for this problem… i was making a counter of views, so every time someone click any item on my lists, it increment by one the counter. this eat my sheet edit so fast ! i added glide table with click count column and math column: click count + 1 , and a relation to items… Now just a little action to set columns and show details… and I have a working counter without using sheet edits ! LOL that takes 8 glide columns to achieve so hopefully glide will give as a Global-specific column to save glide servers 😉 ---

Hi David, I would like to know if the editions in glide table are also counted within the editions of google sheets? ---

From the [documentation](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/reference/data-editor/glide-tables): ```auto Glide Tables are like Google Sheets, but they live in Glide and have some exciting properties: * They can hold much more data than a Google Sheet. * You can share tables between apps. * They don’t cause sheet edits/sheet reloads. ``` Note the 3rd dot point. ---

If I create a glide table in the pro version, would I still have a limit of 25,000 rows? ---
