David,
Have you tried using Power Query to do your data washing?

I’ve used this and it works very well.
Spaces is also great for defining an elevation. -

Nothing crazy, just something like Bid Set or Addendum X
It also gives me another Tag for the set in a consistent location. -

Try adding an action using the Forms panel.
Once your button is selected, open you Properties Tab and scroll down. Right at the bottom should be a place where you can add an action.

Power Query is a function within Excel. If you have O365 you’ll find it under the Data tab. Get and Transform.
Power Query is a way to ‘wash’ your data in ways that Excel Formula’s can’t do. Its also REALLY good when you have to repeat various steps as new data becomes available.
I would recommend watching a few YouTube videos on the subject first before trying it.
