Google Apps Script projects are now included in the docs list in Google D

Answer 1

This is a great question, and I would like to direct you guys to this link in the docs that explains the difference between a bound and an unbound script. I found a great script that someone shared and I wanted to make a backup of it, but could not find it in Google Drive even after saving his spreadsheet that was using the script. Turns out it was a bound script, and that is perfectly normal.

So I am either going to create a new project and copy and paste the script, OR maybe do it right by making another copy of it that will hopefully show up in all my sheets when I go to Tools>Script Editor.

(Edit) I copied and pasted the code into a new project. But before I did that:

1. I opened the spreadsheet that I wanted to run the script on.
2. Went to Tools>Script Editor, and made a new project (since the copy of the script still didn't show up in my projects list).
3. Copied and pasted the script into my new project.
4. Run>onOpen to run the script! It works!
