I am trying to copy nested tabulator data to clipboard functionality that Tabulator provides. I am stuck as when i hit 'ctrl+c' and paste it to excel file, it doesn't give me the nested tabulator.
My Table is something like this : Screenshot
I even tried
rowGroups : true
but it still doesn't give me what is displayed in the screenshot.
Can you help me out in this ?
At the moment you cannot nested tables to the clipboard, the rowGroups option refers to the Row Groups option for grouping whole sets of rows.

I have a large imported .csv as a (Query) table in an Excel workbook. I'd like for users of the workbook to be able to select a small subset of that data and update some values without having to play around with filters on the table.
To that end, I've set up a FILTER on a separate sheet, something like:
=FILTER(my_table[some_column], my_table[id_column]="some value")
That pulls in values from the relevant column and displays them.
My question: is there any way to allow users to edit the values retrieved with the FILTER, so that the changes are reflected in the original table? Attempting to edit such a value now just edits the underlying field, causing the FILTER to update and display #SPILL! (which makes sense, since there is not enough free space to render the result).
I've looked at options for FILTER, and thought about writing some custom VBA code to do what FILTER does "manually", and then watch the sheet for updates in that range - but that seems like a lot of coding to do something I would imagine is more commonly needed?
Am I going to have to code this up in VBA? Or is there some alternative approach to using the FILTER?
Dummy here. I always use Freeze Pane to freeze the first row of the Table, but recently I downloaded an exercise file where the first row of it is frozen without using Freeze Pane function.
Please tell me what's it called and how can I set this to my table?
Thank you

This is known as an Excel table. You can create it in two ways - by selecting the range and then go to Home -> Format as table or Insert -> Table. There can be several tables on one sheet.

Its a bit of a weird one but I have a linked table within my database. The table is an excel table with identical field headings and data types and until recently has worked fine however now when I traverse the linked table in Access the data will change every other move, changing from the original row to show data in the row below. Iv had a script output the values of the top row and it displays normally however I cant append this linked table into anything and I assume its this glitch.
Im stumped and would love any ideas as to how this happened and how it can be fixed.
This is an unusual post as I've never quite heard of this type issue. To sanity check things I would suggest that you delete your excel table from the navigation pane in Access - and then relink it.
So then perhaps I didn't understand, and I am wondering what is meant in your first post by: "The table is an excel table with identical field headings and data types"
A link to excel is a qualified "table" so to speak. You should be able to double click on it within Access, it opens in data sheet view and you see all the data but you can't write to it. You can't write back into the excel.
You can query it....
You can append the query results of the excel into a true Access table.
What I'm trying to achieve is to extend the length of a table within a current Excel form (not appending to the bottom of the whole spreadsheet), while not replacing the content below the table.
To do this, I want to insert new rows (for example on row 30). How can I do this with xlwings?
I figured out how this can be done. Unfortunately xlwings doesn't seem to have the functionality built in, but it's possible to do using the API.
This is how I inserted a new row:
sht.range("30:30").api.Insert(InsertShiftDirection.xlShiftToRight)
I have got two adjacent tables. When I apply data filter on first table, it filters the whole row hiding rows from 2nd table as well. How do I restrict filter to only the first table range?
To answer your direct question How do I restrict filter to only the first table range? the answer is - you can't.
Reading the comments it seems what you need is to display the filtered table data next to a chart and another table. There is a little know tool in Excel that you can use to achieve this - the Camera Tool. With this you can create a dynamic image of a range and place it where you want. The image updates when a filter is applied to the source range, without affecting the rows on the Dashboard sheet.
Screenshots to demonstrate:
Setup with tables on seperate sheets, and camera images beside chart on dashboard sheet
With Filter applied to Table A
The Camera tool is not on the Ribbon (Excel 2010) or the standard toolbars (Excel 2003). You need to add it using Customisation. (Add to Qucik Access Toolbar in 2010 or Tools/Customisation Menu in 2003)
Unfortunately you won't be able to do that. When you filter, it filters the entire row (something to think about would be how the row number would display if that weren't the case). You will need to restructure your setup if you wish to prevent that (not sure of your particular use case, so sorry I can't give a more specific suggestion).
I had a similar issue, where i had a table I wanted to remain static - like a key, but wanted to filter the main table.
To get around this, I copied the static table, and pasted it as an image. This way, when you filter on the main table, the image remains where you have put it.
A simple workaround for this general issue that others may have mentioned (but I don't see here):
You can't filter just a range (e.g. a few columns in a spreadsheet), but you can sort just a range. And by sorting the range, then deleting some blocks of unwanted cells in the range, then sorting the range back to the original order, you can fake a filter.
A bit clunky, but easy for some jobs if you're careful.
