You can make an editable copy of a Google Sheet by following these steps:
- Open the Google Sheet you want to copy.
- Click "File" in the menu bar.
- Select "Make a copy..."
- Choose a name for your copy.
- Click "Copy"
This will create a new Google Sheet that is a duplicate of the original, but with its own unique URL and editing permissions. You can then edit the copy without affecting the original sheet.
Here are some additional tips:
- Sharing the copy: You can share your copy with others by clicking "Share" in the top-right corner of the sheet.
- Changing ownership: If you want to become the owner of the copy, you can change the ownership by going to "File" > "Share" > "Advanced" and selecting "Change owners."
- Deleting the copy: If you no longer need the copy, you can delete it by going to "File" > "Move to trash."
These steps allow you to create a personal copy of a Google Sheet and edit it without affecting the original.
