Hi,

Is it possible to create a column with the GICS sector classification in the S&P 500 list, for example, as it is possible with the new WEIGHT() function in v2.1 to create a column with the weights of the members?

If this is currently not possible, I would like to recommend such a feature/function in a future update.

Thanks, and best wishes,
Thomas
