Why delete Bob's row if he dies? Why not just mark him as deceased and change his percentage to zero? Wouldn't that cause the percentages to automatically recalculate?
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

That's the problem with the spreadsheet as it exists right now, percentages are "fixed", but need to be recalculated when someone dies. For simplicity's sake - assuming Bob (worth 15%) dies, and that still leaves 15 people alive on the list, then each one of them gets an additional 1% (15% / 15 people). If there's 30 people still alive, each gets an additional 0.5%. I'm not sure if I had conveyed that properly in my initial post...

I may be totally wrong, but my initial logic says that if you add up the "percentages" column and then give each person T x "MyPercentage"/"TotalPercentages" it will keep the proportions if one or more lines are deleted/cleared, or even added.

If it can tell me that, why can't it make that a clickable so I can see what my reply was??? 
Or am I just too old to intuit what I want to see from a Microsoft product?

If Microsoft wanted you to intuit what you want to see from a Microsoft product, they would let you know what you want to see from a Microsoft product.

From what I can tell, yes.

I suspect it has something to do with Microsoft buying SwiftKey keyboard. I am using it since it was provided by a small group and was paid. Only mobile app I ever paid for. It does exactly what you are talking about and has been doing it for years now. It knows how I talk to people.

It can, but it's not directly obvious.
When you click an email (and when you group conversations, I guess), you can click the little > sign in front of the message.
This will show the entire conversation history, as well as your reply or replies.
Hope that helps.

yep what Sander said. Only problem is it sometimes closes the message you were working on or at least hides it.

Started this morning, created a new basic class, added IEnumerable<T> to it, implemented teh required interface methods via VS, added tiny fragment of code to each method:
public IEnumerator<int> GetEnumerator()
{
for (int i = Min; i <= Max; i++)
{
yield return i;
}
}
IEnumerator IEnumerable.GetEnumerator()
{
return this.GetEnumerator();
}
And tested it.
It works: foreach and Linq all work perfectly.
Why was it a problem? Because I added IEnumerable to the class first yesterday, and that confuses the issue when you try to add IEnumerable<T> later ...
Now I can rip out all the enumeration code from the "real" classes and do the job simply.
Sometimes, I get too focussed on what I am doing to see the wood for the trees ... or I'm an idiot. Both, possibly.

I seem to solve my most challenging problems right after a good night sleep. What is weird is that the answer is revealed to me at the exact moment I start to wake up, but I am still not fully awake yet.
I also read, and believe, that a great deal of medical issues that affect us are due to a continual lack of effective, restorative sleep.

Last working day of 2021... I've got this issue I want to fix before my Christmas break.
Hours of debugging, but nothing.
It's something I've done countless of times before, send a file from an HTML form to my back-end, doesn't work.
Checked my code, my types, my inputs, went back to square one, copy/pasted code where I'm already doing it, nothing seemed to work...
Decided to give up, enjoy my vacation and fix it in 2022.
Januari 3rd, I hadn't thought about the problem for two weeks.
I start up my laptop, go into the code and almost mindlessly add enctype="multipart/form-data" to the form element.
Problem solved in < 1 minute

I used to keep a notepad on the table next to the bed so when I woke in the middle of the night with an idea I could write it down so I wouldn't lose it.

Could you ever read and understand what you wrote? I never could ... "Bwargl the kittens" was about the best I managed! 
It was probably a brilliant idea, I remember being really excited when I wrote it down ... would have made me a fortune ...

I understood it most of the time, at time I looked at it and went WTF.

You know I thought making a million was so easy I went straight to working on the second million, still working on it.

You Quote: Bwargl

If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

I'm not worried about the number of felines involved, I'd just like to know what "Blargl" means ...

The deplatformed and silent bootstrapping brought up the components. (5)

PARTS?
bootstrapping deplatformed = strapping
silent strapping = strap
strap brought up = parts = components

Good job,
You solved it, you are up tomorrow!

Hi Derek how is bootstrapping deplatformed = strapping ?
