I needed these functions today:


- Copy column to the left retaining only words ending in HBX, SBX, or BOX.

- Delete all words from column ending in HBX, SBX, or BOX.


Alternatively:


- Copy column to the left.

- Delete all data words from column ending in HBX, SBX, or BOX.

- Delete all data words from column not ending in HBX, SBX, or BOX.

It should be "duplicate column" rather than "copy column to the left" in the alternative.

eells merged horizontally should be so cloned and not modified.oul

Offhand, I don't think that the visual editor can do that, although perhaps in its wikitext mode, someone could pull off a regex find/replace on it.

Did you consider copying the contents to a spreadsheet, manipulating it there, and dragging a .csv file back in, to overwrite the old content?
