    Note

    Files with extension .dat are read as a single column because Google Drive reads .dat files as application/octet-stream file type  Folders present in Google Drive must have unique names. Example: "REDFolder" and "REDFolder1" similar folder names should be avoided  Files which are deleted from 'Google Drive Folders' are still browsable. To avoid such files, delete them from 'Bin\Trash' as well.  Sometimes, it might take 2-5 minutes for files or directories that were recently added/uploaded to 'Google Drive' to be browsed.
