Can I use a cell text as table name

I would like to give my table name the same as the cell A1. the tables I am using are journals so the first cell is the date and I would like to give the table the same date. Can I link the two so I only have to write the date once?

No. But, you can Copy the content of A1 and Paste into the Table Name field in the Sheets Pane.

  • Using a parameter for a table name?

    In SQL Server, can you use a parameter for a table name?  I'm working with Visual C# and want to do something like this:
    SELECT MAX(ItemID) FROM @TableName;
    Can this be done?
    (Basically, I have three separate methods within a class--one for each table I have; and each one will perform the above query but on different table names.  I'd like to see if there is a way that I can have just one method that will allow me to specify
    the table name.)

    As pointed out in other posts, you can. But a more relevant question is whether you should.
    A table in a relational database is supposed to model a unique entity, and each column in the table is supposed to model a unique attribute. This is not always how it is, but it is from this model a relational database is designed.
    From this angle, having a dynamic table name does not really make sense for application code. (Administrative actions is a different story.) Think of it this way: have you ever wanted to make the class name dynamic in C#?
    Admittedly, it is different in .NET, because everything inherits from System.Object, but in a relational database there is no inheritence.
    Anyway, if you are using stored procedures, you should have one stored procedure per table. Physically, in the plan cache, there will be one query plan per table, no matter how you do it.
    If you are submitting SQL statements from your application, it is a different matter. In this case, I find it difficult to object if you have a class that performs generic actions against tables. Then you build the SQL string in the client code.
    However, no matter how you do it, you need to be careful to avoid SQL injection. We had the example:
    DECLARE @TableName nvarchar(50),@sqlCommand nvarchar(max)
      SET @TableName = ' ItemInformation'
      SET @sqlCommand = 'SELECT MAX(ItemID) FROM ' + @TableName
    EXEC (@sqlCommand)
    But what if we have:
      SET @TableName = ' sys.objects; SHUTDOWN WITH NOWAIT; --'
    As long as we do it in T-SQL, we can (and we should do!) this to prevent SQL injection:
      SET @sqlCommand = 'SELECT MAX(ItemID) FROM ' + quotename(@TableName)
    If you build your SQL strings in C#, you will need to employ other checks. There is only an issue if the user can inject data somewhere, but your generic class will not have knowledge of this, and must assume the worst.

  • A script that can be used to track text content changes in indesign?

    Is there a possibility a script that can be used to track text content changes in indesign. My Indesign software's version is CS3. As you can see below, I have deleted some texts and added some. I did it in another software.
    I have been searched for a long time. Because of my poor English, I still can't come up with any Object Model related to the script yet.
    Here is some idea of mine:
    Use the script tracking my revising texts. When I  add some new texts, the texts will be underlined. When I delete some texts, the position of the first character of the removed text will be added a small red triangle or something.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hidden dragon, what does that mean?
    I can't comprehend fully what you said.
    Is IDML short for Indeisgn Markup Language?
    I think you are telling me that I can open the Indeisgn document by using the software InCopy. Then I have change some contents. InCopy will help me tracking the revision.

  • Is variable offsets can be used for characteristics, text and formulas?

    hi all,
    can anyone let me know whether variable offsets can be used for characteristics, text and formulas.
    if so cany one send me examples of using offsets to my email id [email protected]
    regds
    hari

    You use offsets on dates (0CALMONTH, 0FISCYEAR, 0DAT and so on) and of course the corresponding texts.
    If you have 0CALMONTH in your query and you want to do the same thing not only for the current month but for the past twelve months, they you just minus 1, 2....11,12 for each selections, and at the same time you can create text variable for the description of each month.
    thanks.

  • Where can i find out all the standared table name

    Dear Friend,
    could you please tell me where can i find out all the standard table names,
    ( for example: tstc for find all the T-codes) .

    HI Srinivas,
      DD02L has the name of all the TABLES in the SYSTEM. It has both SAP and Customer's TABLES.
      First of all exclude all Z* and Y* tables from dd02L. Still there are many tables in CUSTOMER NAMSPACE.
      So make a program, LOOP at all entries of DD02L and then check the name space of each entry using the function module:-
    <b>TRINT_OBJECT_NAMESPACE_INFO</b>.
    If the namspace is not EQUAL to 'S', then dont count that entry else add one to the counter.
      This would tell you all SAP Standard Tables in the system.
    Thanks and regards,
    RAVI :).
    NOTE: Points keep me alive on SDN .

  • Can I use a cell value to reference a table on another sheet?

    I'm not sure if this is possible and I have had no luck with searches, here is what I am attempting to do...
    On my first sheet I have a number of tables, each holding information on a service. Each table is named to match the service name.
    On another sheet I have a list of clients that use these services, with the service name (to match the table name on the first sheet) in a cell in the client's row.
    I would like to pull data from one of the cells on the Service table to include it in a concatenate formula in the clients row.
    I was hoping to be able to use the value of the cell with the service name in it as part of the formula to reference the service sheet...
    For example:
    ="something"&Services::B2::C6&"something"
    Is this possible, or is there a way I can work around the auto corrections that numbers keeps applying?
    Cheers

    you can construct the text of a cell reference as a string by concatenating information then use the function indirect() to turn the string into a reference.
    so you would do something like:
    =indirect("something"&Services::B2::C6&"something")
    this is assuming that "something"&Services::B2::C6&"something"  results in a string that would be a valid reference.

  • Calc: How can I get absolute cell references in tables to work?

    Hi, I'm new to Star Office, and have run into a problem in my first spreadsheet.
    I have a data table in my spreadsheet.
    Some cells in the table need to make calculations based on other cells in the table.
    When I sort the table, however, the cell references are made to be incorrect. I expected that I could just use absolute references (e.g. $A$2) and when the table was sorted those references would be updated to refer to the new absolute location of that cell, e.g. $A$10). However, the absolute references are being left literally the same ($A$2) after the sort, making them reference a different row of data than intended. Relative references of course don't work in this situation either (I tried for thoroughness). (I thought Excel behaved the way I expected, but I just tried it in Excel 2007 and it is exhibiting the same behavior as StarOffice Calc.)
    I'm also concerned, although I haven't tried it yet, about what will happen when I reference cells in this table from another table using absolute references that the same problem will exist...
    So basically, I can't find a way to use absolute references to cells in a table that will persist correctly when the table is sorted. Any suggestions?
    Thanks. Asa
    Edited by: earthasa on Sep 20, 2007 2:37 AM
    I was able to work around the problem by creating an index column in the table with a unique number for each row of data and using vlookup() to reference the correct row. If there is a more elegant solution I'm still interested :)

    OK. Think I've got it now thanks to looking at the short keys and searching for "Full Screen".  The upper left key is "`" which looks like a grave - a slightly angled single quote. But when I look at the "Application" setting for Toggle full screen it is set to "'" - a "normal" single quote.  Sure enough, if I hit the normal single quote key the toggle works.
    I have not been anywhere near the hotkeys and can't imagine why anything would change it from a grave key to a single quote - especially as they look almost identical on the screen.  I'm guessing that Adobe changed this (maybe only for international users?)
    Anyway I now know how to toggle full screen, although it makes the "Premiere" keyboard with its big purple key for "Toggle full screen" redundant.  Does make me wonder what the shortcut key of "'" or CTRL + "'" gives that I'm presumably missing since it appears to have been remapped.

  • Can't call or chat with Verizon because I can't use my cell (Account, not technical problem)

    Dear all,
    So I am living in Ireland right now.  NOT using my Verizon account at all.  (Phone still active, still paying, but using a European cell here.)  In the meantime, I need to make a change to my nephew's account, which I pay for on mine.  (He got a new carrier on his own a month or so ago and I need to cancel his line.)  If I dial any of the numbers for customer service from a land line or from my cell here, it says to hang up and use my cell phone.  And I can't do that!  I don't have it activated for global services because I'm not using it.  Then on top of that, the chat online function seems to be blocked in Ireland.  It won't work on any computer I try.
    So here I am, I can't call Verizon.  I can't chat with Verizon.  I can't find an e-mail address.  And in the meantime, for the last month I am paying for a phone that isn't being used.  Because I can't figure out any way to actually get Verizon to talk to me!!  I've tried googling numbers, etc., etc.  The 1-800-922-0204 number says I'm not calling from a Verizon cell and hangs up on me.  The 908-559-4899 number behaves exactly the same.  I tried the Global services number, but they said it's for technical support only, no customer help. 
    Help????
    Thanks,
    Jill

  • I won an ipad 2 in a contest (64gb 3g) does it have a carrier already installed or can I use my cell phone carrier (sprint)

    I won an ipod2 in a contest and have sprint for my cell phone carrier. Can I use sprint as a carrier on this ipad or does it have to be verizon or at&t?

    I'm surprised that it doesn't say on the box. Does it say either "CDMA" or "GSM"? You can also check the model number; unless the information I found is incorrect, the GSM/AT&T model is A1396 and the CDMA/Verizon model is A1397. You can also look for a SIM slot. The Version-model iPad 2 doesn't have even an empty slot, if memory serves.
    Regards.

  • How to use bind variable value for table name in select statement.

    Hi everyone,
    I am having tough time to use value of bind variable for table name in select statement. I tried &p37_table_name. ,
    :p37_table_name or v('p37_table_name) but none worked.
    Following is the sql for interactive report:
    select * from v('p37_table_name') where key_loc = :P37_KEY_LOC and
    to_char(inspection_dte,'mm/dd/yyyy') = :P37_INSP_DT AND :p37_column_name is not null ;
    I am setting value of p37_table_name in previous page which is atm_state_day_insp.
    Following is error msg:
    "Query cannot be parsed, please check the syntax of your query. (ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended) "
    Any help would be higly appreciated.
    Raj

    Interestingly enough I always had the same impression that you had to use a function to do this but found out from someone else that all you need to do is change the radio button from Use Query-Specific Column Names and Validate Query to Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only). Apex will substitute your bind variable for you at run-time (something you can't normally do in pl/sql without using dynamic sql)
