Transform table to collection

I have a table for certain data—it’s simple and very handy. But eventually, it gets more and more complex, and a table isn’t enough to handle it all anymore; I’d need a collection. I need to be able to convert a table into a collection.

For example, if I make a little list in the corner of a page of my books (including Dune ^^), just to give them a rating so I can remember what I liked, it works well, it’s fast, and I don’t need anything more.
A year later, the list has grown, and I’d like to expand on it using properties, links, etc.—in short, do what Collection 2.0 will allow.
And I definitely don’t want to retype hundreds of entries!

This would also work for an Excel spreadsheet that you paste into Anytwo!

A simple “Turn into Collection” feature that would handle the conversion would be great.

Points to consider would be:

  • that the inline version of collections would sometimes be necessary
  • and being able to detect property types; otherwise, everything is treated as text, and the user has to redefine the types, but it should be possible to transform them more freely than is currently the case
  • rich text properties will also be necessary
