Documentation rule: this VauSheet section describes the current implemented product behavior. It avoids claiming full Microsoft Excel parity or live-cursor collaboration where the current build does not provide it.
01
Use one header row
Keep one clear row of field names and one record per subsequent row when the sheet will be filtered or queried.
02
Keep columns consistent
Avoid mixing unrelated concepts in one column. Numeric columns should primarily contain numeric values; dates should follow a consistent convention.
03
Separate presentation from data
Use merged cells and decorative layouts outside the main data range when you expect to run SQL/filter operations on the table.
