DH: row_ord column in Soil-NMDC-Template_Compiled #417

Open turbomam opened 2 years ago

turbomam commented 2 years ago

Some time ago, I added the column that appears on the far left of the Terms sheet in row_ord column in Soil-NMDC-Template_Compiled. Either I did not include a column header, or it got deleted at some point.

I just updated this column with the header row_ord, for row order. I also refreshed the values in that column to be 1, 2, 3 etc. That way the rows can be restored to their intended order, in case I or anybody else sorts them.

@mslarae13, if you think this is a bad idea, I would support removing this column. But in that case, I would ask that we lock the sheet, or come to an agreement that row order doesn't matter.
