It would be great if it was possible to FORMAT TEXT (fonts, colors, bold, italics), CELLS (left, right, center alignment, background colors), and BORDERS (bold or dashed lines, colors) within tables. The ability to add extra header lines and/or to FREEZE more cells vertically and horizontally would help, too.
I really like the idea of Airtable, but can’t effectively use it over Excel until it has more functionality.

Is there any update on where rich text formatting is on the roadmap? We have a need specifically for bold/italic/underline, bulleted and numbered lists in long text fields. This is needed for our business to properly maintain citation formats of references.
Yea it looks like its been on the roadmap for over 4 years now! This definitely a feature I think everyone needs and would really benefit the platform dramatically.
I’d really like the ability to assign a text color to an entire column to break the data up a bit. Black text everywhere all blends together. This post shows exactly what the colored columns might look like.
Line truncating in the title row and left, center, and align are the things i miss most from google sheets. Really utilized this when the column headers are long but the cell information is short. Hate having a two inch column for the title but only have Y or N in the cells. I would make them shorter but i need to read the whole title!
-In Excel with put different colors in headers to easilly distinguish sections of products.
-In Excel with put a grey color in the columns that contains formulas to allow users to see in an heartbeat that these cells doesn’t need to be manually filled.
