    I think it easily readability, Its amazing feature.

    Few quick questions:

    1) if i make changes in the data in table, will it get reflected in main data, excel or csv if we download i?. Or do we need to still use edit form option.

    2) I am using notification as a way to approve soem data, do i still use it, or how to use the tables to make them approve. https://form.jotform.com/202980163354454 is the link of form and i am using the data in 2nd page as approval page.

    Can i get the same approval using the tables. Can you please give this input as in few days i will be releasing my form for registration.

    Yes any changes you make in the table cells, the data will be saved and it will be displayed in Excel and CSV download as well.

    Please note that if you edit any of the data directly in the table column, the data will be saved in submission automatically. It is the same as editing the submission data but it won't trigger any condition or email alert and edited data will be saved directly.

    That means if you want to trigger approval workflow conditions, you need to edit submission using link through link or through the edit submission option of JotForm tables.

    Hope this helps.
