So by creating a table inside the text document, you can essentially make a spreadsheet?

Indeed! However, without range support like A1:A10 or relative references. Besides, values should be defined in order (top-bottom, left-right)

Try to create a 2x2 table like this:

=(/A1=/”Hello”) =(/B1=/”World”)

              =(A1 + “ “ + B1)
Click on Evaluate formula, tadaa. I just fixed a bug to make it work, the publication might take up to 24h.
