Results to
Results to defines where your result will be shown. If you do not enter anything,
the DataPilot will put your result below the list that contains your data. This could
result in overwriting any data that is already in that location. To avoid overwriting
data, you can leave Results to as – undefined – and enter a cell reference to tell
the DataPilot where to show the results.

However, a generally better approach is
to use - new sheet – to add a new sheet to the spreadsheet file and place the
results there.
Ignore empty rows
If the source data is not in the recommended form, this option tells the DataPilot
to ignore empty rows.
Identify categories
If the source data has missing entries in a list and does not meet the
recommended data structure (see Figure 200), the DataPilot adds it to the listed
category above it. If this option is not chosen, then the DataPilot inserts (empty)
(see Figure 202).
The option Identify categories ensures that in this case rows 3 and 4 are added to
the product Apples and row 6 is added to Pears (see Figure 201).
Without category recognition, the DataPilot shows an (empty) category (Figure
202).

defined.
