Okay, that's a spreadsheet containing only the conditions for one single
rule. What about all the other properties the script is already
outputting? Where do they go? Also, what about the other rules with
different conditions? If you have, say, twelve rules, each with a
completely different number and type of conditions, how will you present
that in a single spreadsheet? Or were you perhaps thinking that each
rule would have its own spreadsheet? Either way, you need to define it
before coding it. If you really want to understand the problem, do this
exercise: make a new spreadsheet to hold your rules, add a column for
each and every rule property you want to track, and then manually fill
it in with a couple different rules with a different set of conditions
for each rule. If you can show me what you want, I'll be happy to modify
the script accordingly for you. : )
