Fixed Decimal Input

I am looking for a setting for fixed decimal places. Most of my data is entered in excel, currently, as 2535(=25.35) I am looking to do the same in Numbers with out pressing the "." key. I am sure i am being silly and its in front of my face but i cannot find it.
Thank you
Vin

I work with a proprietary system at work that defaults to fixed decimals = 2 when the decimal point isn't added. Drives me batty, so I sympathize with the issue of trained staff who are used to not having to use a decimal point. I billed out $200 as $2 on more than one transaction before I realized what my system was doing to me.
Have you considered the old school method of either a separate column that automatically adjusts the data or having one table for data entry and a table that mirrors the info but does the division by 100 to put the data into the right format for your subsequent work?
I would expect the file size to increase, but I would also hope that it wouldn't do so by 2X since there would be a lot of directly referenced cells.

Update fixed decimal value

I am trying to do a setColumnValue("ColumnName", value) for a fixed decimal field. The format of the field is defined by:
TopStratRowSet.setFormatterInfo(new FormatterInfo(DefaultFormatManager.NUMERIC_VALUE,"###0.00"));
I want to set the top value the same as the bottom of the previous record. I get the bottom value, print it and it looks Ok; then when
I try to do the setValue, I get a classCast Exception. At first I tried the value as an ImmediateAccess type, then I tried
values that were oracle.jbo.domain.Number type and no matter what, I alwas get classCast Exception.
In my application, I have frequently updated values with setColumnValue method, but the fields have always been strings or
integers until now.
I have tried to log a tar, but something seems wrong with metaLink today. At first I could not log in, then when I got logged in,
my TAR option is missing.
I would really really appreciate any advice that anyone has.

Can you try changing the column value thro' the Immediate access interface ?.
import javax.infobus.*;
AttributeInfo mycol = new AttributeInfo(...);
ImmediateAccess ia = myCol.getImmediateAccess()
ia.setValue( ....) ;
1. Can you try ia.setValue( "9.99");

How to fix decimal point limit

Hi
how do i fix the decimal point digit.
for e.g
if the input number is 123.33
then it should conver it to 123.330
OR
if input 123
then it should convert it to 123.000
OR
if input 123.321456
then it should convert it to 123.321
Thanks in advance.

No that is not the solution.
But I found out a different solution. The following code will give me exact figure which I was looking for.
BigDecimal inputSize = new BigDecimal(12.3215)
inputSize.setScale(3, RoundingMode.FLOOR);
Thanks to all of you for your support
Ciao :-)

How to change the format of a decimal input field?

Hello,
When creating an input field of type decimal the numbers appear at this format: 123,123.
Is it possible to disable this format and let the numbers to be displayed like this: 123123 ?
Regards,
Roy

Hi Roy,
Create a simple type in local dictionary of built in type integer. In the representation tab you can give any format you want. For your requirement you can give ####### in the format. You can also try other formats like ##,#### etc. Now create a context attribute and in it's type property give the simple type you have created by selecting the appropriate folder. Now map this attribute with the input field.

JTable Cell Editor For Decimal Input

Hi friends in my program i am using jtable, in that table two columns are decimal value. I am using defaultcelleditor for to check the user input but it does not work. so how can i check the user input, ie number or string using the cell editor. My aim is to check the user input, if the user give the wrong value, ie string input the warning message want to be displayed and the editor color also want to change. Please help me.
I refer some tutorials and get some source code and i used but it does not work. this is the code.
DecimalFormat format=new DecimalFormat("######0.00");
tableField=new JFormattedTextField();
tab_Bill.getColumnModel().getColumn(3).setCellRenderer(new DecimalRenderer(format)); tab_Bill.getColumnModel().getColumn(3).setCellEditor(new ProblemEditor(tableField));
class DecimalRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
DecimalFormat formatter;
DecimalRenderer(String pattern) {
    this(new DecimalFormat(pattern));
DecimalRenderer(DecimalFormat formatter) {
    this.formatter = formatter;
    setHorizontalAlignment(JLabel.RIGHT);
    @Override
public void setValue(Object value) {
   /* setText((value == null) ? "" : formatter.format(((Double) value)
        .doubleValue()));*/
setText((value == null) ? "" : formatter.format(Double.parseDouble(value.toString())));
     class ProblemEditor extends DefaultCellEditor implements TableCellEditor{
   private JFormattedTextField ftf;
   public ProblemEditor(JFormattedTextField myfield) {
       super(myfield);
        @Override
   public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table,
           Object value, boolean isSelected, int row, int column) {
       ftf = (JFormattedTextField) super.getTableCellEditorComponent(table, value, isSelected, row, column);
        Double d = null;
       try
                if(value!=null)
        d=Double.parseDouble(value.toString());
        catch(Exception e)
           // JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Wrong");
           d=0.0;
       ftf.setValue(d); // remove and okay
       ftf.setCaretPosition(ftf.getText().length());
       return ftf;
}

You might find it easer to use on of the [Table Format Renderers|http://www.camick.com/java/blog.html?name=table-format-renderers].

Create a Custom BAPI with inputs as Decimal values

Hello Experts,
I am new to BAPI creation, my requirment has two decimal inputs(as import parameters) and out output can be a simple add of these two numbers.
Decimal Input has 9 characters with 7 decimals Ex: 10.0000000. How to create a structure or data type and use the same back in my BAPI.
What is the ABAP code that, I should write to add these two inputs and export them.
Please help ASAP, I am in a critcal position.
Thanks,
Suma

Hello Suma,
This error is caused because you are trying to use a data type rather a data element, it better if you follow the below process
Start with creating a Structure with ZBAPI name, from SE11
give a component name with Z and component type with Z and then double click on new component type and this will ask what to generate click on dataelement and enter discription then enter a Z new name in the Domain and double click on it, click on data type and enter DEC, no char 9 and decimal 7 then save activate, clikc on back save activate and again click on back and save activate now your sturcture will be saved. Follow the proces if have new data type or else the same for your next entres.
For your Req....
take component ZINPUT1 compenent type ZINPUT with domain as ZZINPUT...
use the sam for ZINPUT2 and ZOUTPUT and then save activate. Now the structure is created.
SE37 create new BAPI, In import parameters take parameters as T_INPUT1 and T_INPUT2 with ZBAPI_SUM-ZINPUT1 and ZBAPI_SUM-ZINPUT2.Then in export if you wnat inputs also in there just give some export names and give the assoated type as what you have used in import, also add OUTPUT and RETURN with ZBAPI_SUM-ZOUTPUT and BAPIRETURN.Now write the source code as follows
FUNCTION ZBAPI_TESTDEC1.
""Local Interface:
*" IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(T_INPUT1) TYPE ZBAPI_SUM-ZINPUT OPTIONAL
*"     VALUE(T_INPUT2) TYPE ZBAPI_SUM-ZINPUT1 OPTIONAL
*" EXPORTING
*"     VALUE(INPUT1) TYPE ZBAPI_SUM-ZINPUT
*"     VALUE(INPUT2) TYPE ZBAPI_SUM-ZINPUT1
*"     VALUE(OUTPUT) TYPE ZBAPI_SUM-ZOUTPUT
*"     VALUE(RETURN) TYPE BAPIRETURN
INPUT1 = T_INPUT1.
INPUT2 = T_INPUT2.
OUTPUT = T_INPUT1 + T_INPUT2.
ENDFUNCTION.
Now save it and then activate and then clikc on tables tab then functional module on main menu and then relase.
Go to T-code SWO1 create new Obj with ZBAPI name and then clikc create enter Obj name,Name,Des,Program,and Application has to be * then enter.
Click on methods,Utilites, API Methods, Add method, Select BAPI Name then contine for 3 times then click BAPI Added in the methods then on edit change relase status- object type To modeled, To impimented and To relased at 3 diff times then follow the same for Object Type component.
Now click on red and white round button which is similar to BMW symbol. This will generate the BAPI and now you see it in BAPI T-Code.
Hope this helps you ...
Reward if helpfull....

Automatic insertion of decimal point

How do you make numbers automatically insert a decimal point? I want to input 12356 and I want it to appear in the cell as 123.56. In other words I want numbers to insert a decimal point in front of the last two digits I input. Having to input the decimal point myself really slows me down.
to insert a decimal point

Hi Jerry
The fixed decimal point feature is available in Excel 2002 and is found under:
Tools > options > edit tab
about half way down click box next to fixed decimal point and you can also specify the number of decimal points.
This fixed decimal point feature is then global for all sheets.
In Excel 2007 click office button top left of screen
in bottom right of drop down menu is a box named Excel options- click this
then choose Advanced which is 5th option on LHS of menu and click second box in the menu next to Automatically insert a decimal point. You can again specify the number of points excel uses.
I think this fixed decimal point feature must exist in Office 2004 as it appears in Excel 2002 and 2007.
Hope this helps you. You don't miss it on a desktop keyboard where there is a numeric keypad but on a laptop it is a real pain to have to input the point on every entry.

Is there a way to fix the exchange rate of PO item condition type ?

Hello all,
We have an agreed selling price in RMB from the supplier and the export rate(RMB to USD) is given by them according to delivery date. But we pay in USD.   Thus PO header is USD and using M rate but PO price condition type in PO item is RMB -> then convert to USD and sum up into gross price. We want to control the way RMB is converted to USD in the item level.
e.g. PO order currency is USD, PO header exchange rate is a fixed rate input by user
        (hedge rate USD -> Local company currency)
PO item 1      agreed PO price is 100 RMB -> PO item condition's rate is 100 RMB per pc
                     -> export rate RMB to USD fixed at 8 -> 100 / 8 USD
PO item 2      agreed PO price is 200 RMB -> PO item condition's rate is 200 RMB per pc
                      at export rate -> 200 / 8 USD
Total PO value in USD = 300 RMB / 8      (we don't want it to convert 300 RMB using M rate)
Appreciate if anyone has a solution for this similar case.

Conversion of Decimal to Binary String

Hello Labview People:
I'm rather new to Labview, so this may be a simple-minded question . . .
I would like to take a numeric control and have the decimal input
converted to a binary string of 8 bits. So, for example, if I were to
put in the number '127', I would get out (on an indicator) the string:
01111111
The number '128' would show on the indicator as:
10000000
It seems to me that this should be simple, but somehow I cannot figure
out how to do it. Must an array be built bit by bit to accomplish this?
(I'm afraid I don't yet know how to build arrays.)
Thanks in advance for any help you provide!

Before you buy.

Or, you can go under the numeric function, and look for conversions, get
decimal to byte array conversion.
Then what you need to do is to get an array selection vi, and index to zero.
I don't remember the exact name of the VI's because I don't have LabView
here with me.
Perhaps this complicates things

Error in validation an input field in a table ui and high lighting the cell

Hello All,
I have a table ui in one of my application.   This table has, say 6 columns; out of these 6 columns 4 columns are shown as input fields. User needs to put in some numbers in two of the fields. I need to capture these two number fields data and subtract one from the other. If number is negative , I need to let the user know by error message that the number is negative and they need to fix their input to make the answer positive. I am able to do all this, but I am not able to high light the corresponding field which needs to be fixed. Is there anyway I can do that...I mean high light the particular field as one gets it when we use the "report attribute error message" method of message manager class.
Secondly I can not halt the application, I need to do some work around for that using some flags. Is there a simple way to halt the application, other than using flags and if condition? I searched this forum, but could not find any definite answer....
Thanks very much!
Any help would greatly be appreicated.

Hi....
First you should have the table values in an internal table.... for that yo need to get the values from the context like this....
*DECLARE INTERNAL TABLE AND WORKAREA.
data ls_nd_stru type wd_this->element_<node name>
data lt_nd_table type wd_this->elements_<node name>
get all declared attributes
lo_nd_<your context node>->get_static_attributes_table(
                                           importing
                                           table = lt_nd_table ).
*now your lt_nd_table will have the values.....what ever you have in the table.
*then
loop at lt_nd_table into ls_nd_stru.
<.....your logic.....>
<ie., read the current line of the field like
ls_nd_stru-<field name1> = ls_nd_stru-<field name2> - ls_nd_stru-<field name3>
then check error msg... based on your postive or negative values
endloop.
Hope this will help you....
Thanks & regards

Measuring Phase Difference of acquired sound input - How to set the reference

I am trying to measure the phase difference between two audio inputs.(Left and Right Channel of my sound card)
Both are free running 1kHz audio samples which come in and out of phase.
When the samples are in phase everything seems to be working correctly and shows no phase difference.
However once the signals start to go out of phase +-10deg the result keeps jumping around.
It appears to be the fact that it is changing the reference to determine the phase.
When I view the output phase of a channel it is a sawtooth waveform moving from 250deg and then wraps round to -110deg
What I want is to fix one input at 0 degrees and see the others inputs phase difference against it.
Is there a way to set one signal as the reference or an alternative strategy?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
