# auto-import

 * Love this auto-import option with Google Sheets. However, help me. The update
   captures the top row in Google Sheets which is A, B, C, D, etc. and not my “Top
   Row”. If I delete it in TablePress and along with first column which is same,
   1, 2, 3, etc, it looks great, until next import and it is right back like it 
   was. Is there anyway to import data only and leave integrity of table alone as
   far as with columns or rows that are visible? I have looked through as many FAQ’s
   as possible without finding a solution.
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Figured it out, need to hide the columns and rows. Feel like such an idiot. Maybe
   it is too late and I am hungry…..

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Yes, you could either hide these columns/rows, or use the CSV export URL for 
   your Google Sheet (which is what I actually recommend). This should not contain
   those extra row/column.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Tobias, is there a way to have charts link to the data once synced?

 * Hi,
 * what do you mean with “charts”? There is something for drawn charts by another
   developer, at [https://github.com/soderlind/tablepress_chartist](https://github.com/soderlind/tablepress_chartist).
   However, I have heard that it’s no longer maintained and might not work anymore.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
