Apostrophe sign on cell of a report

HI,
This is something I never noticed until a user pointed it out to me.
For any cell on a BEX report output, the formula bar of excel shows an ' and then the contents of the cell.
For example on the report, costcenter would be 1000. The formula bar shows '1000.
This I assume is to make sure the format of data is the same. But when the user sorts on this coloumn, the order of sort is not the same as the cells without the ' sign.
Can someone throw more light on this?
Thanks
Prakash

Hi Oscar,
Thanks for replying !
The problem is this
Say I have a coloumn on the report which shows Material Number. This is a combination of text and numbers, like A003M1, A004M3 etc
If I am sorting the coloumn in say 'ascending' format, the output of the BW sort is different from the sort that results in excel (out side of BW world). In case of the latter, there wont be an ' in the formula cell.

Double click on cell in alv report

Hi all,
I want to show detail popup on cell of alv report. how to get the cell value.
plz tell me the logic for getting cell value.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
IF RS_SELFIELD-FIELDNAME = 'EBELN1'.
* Read data table, using index of row user clicked on
READ TABLE IT_EKKO INTO WA_EKKO INDEX RS_SELFIELD-TABINDEX.
Please remember the field EBELN1 should be in IT_EKKO. after the read statement you can move which ever field you want to another for further processing
like
READ TABLE IT_EKKO INTO WA_EKKO INDEX RS_SELFIELD-TABINDEX.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
move it_ekkp-( your field name) to v_field

Hiding the blank cells in Webi report - BO 4.0

Hi,
I have created a webi report in which i have used different types of blocks
1) Form table
2) Verticle table
3) Horizontal table.
so now in real time there chances that some of the blocks will not have any data.(i.e it displays blank cell) in the report.
so now i have to hide only the blank cells and not the table headers.that means though the cells are blank i have to display headers.
what formatting changes i need to achieve this in Webi Report.
If anybody does this please let me know the step by step logic in detail.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Naga Nanda Kishore.

Hi,
We cannot hide specifc cells in WebI, however we can choose to whether to display or not empty measure values and empty dimension value.
So you need to select the desired block-> Right Click and Select Format Table-> Uncheck Show rows with empty dimension values or Show rows with empty measure values whichever is required to be hidden.
Hope this helps.

Cell formulas stop reporting correct values. Numbers 3.5.

10.10
Numbers 3.5
In the same table:
I have a cell (say #1) with a number value entered say 10.40.
I have another cell (say cell #2) that is set to equal that cell's value.
This works and cell 2 reports the correct value of cell 1.
But once every 10 or so restarts cell 2 stops reporting cell 1's value correctly.
It reports the previous value after I change Cell 1's value.
Sometimes deleting cell 2's reference and re-entering it works.
Other times it just continues to report cell 1's previous value.
Getting cell 2 to report the current value of cell 1 can be a chore.
Other cells on the same sheet with more complicated formulas also stop reporting the correct values.
Many references are for cells in other tables on the same sheet.
I can spend 30-45 minutes correcting the mess every 10 or so restarts.
Anyone else have this issue?
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks ... Ken

Nothing like that here. Have you tried deleting Numbers 3.5 (go to LaunchPad, hold down the mouse button until the icons quiver, and click the x by the Numbers icon) and re-downloading from the Mac App Store? Also have you tried shutting down and restarting your Mac?

Append table with multi-line cells to word report

Hi,
I am using LabView 7.0. I need to append table to word report and I am using Append Table to Report VI. My VI works fine as long as the table cells do not have multiple lines. For multiple lines, each line is put is a seperate cell in the word report.
Is there a way to append multi-line cells to Word Report??? If not, any suggestions on how I can copy the multi-line table to Word report???
Please kindly help!!
Please see the attached document for details on the problem.
Thanks,

Hi Mim,
Yes I understood the multiple-lines part. I think the doc is the report you want. Correct ?
The doc is generated with your VI without any modifications.

Fill cell color in report - the entire cell?

Hi all,
Apologies to ask for something that has already been touched on.
https://forums.oracle.com/message/843430#843430
This solution was great to read. It colors the text background in a cell, in a report, depending on the data within. This is almost, but not quite coloring the entire cell.
I have been trying for a while but at this point can I put it to the brains trust? (ie you)
In old school language, what I'm after is
<TABLE border=1 bgcolor=#FFFFFF>
<TR>
<TD>my first table</TD>
<TD bgcolor=#00FF00>my first table</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
...which colors one entire cell, rather than just the white behind the text.
FYI, I would then go to make this conditional depending on the data in the cell - Effectively becoming the Excel stype Conditional formatting.
Thanks.

String containing apostrophe sign passed to text field via binded parameter from XDP displayed wrong

Hello,
I have a text field that is bound to a String field in XDP, sometimes when the field contains apostrophe sign (') generated PDF displays ' instead, for example if the value is he's it shows he's
The field format is plain text only.
The problem only appears occasionaly and rarealy and I can't find the reason and can't even reproduce it anymore.
Maby someone has encountered such problem and know the reason why it happens or conditions for it to happen and the means to fix it?

I don't want to be one of those that gives meaningless advise but I'm keen to 'give back' to this forum so here goes ... maybe completely up the wrong tree ...
I'll assume you're generating the XDP on a server and then passing that to the browser as a content type "application/vnd.adobe.xdp+xml"
Have you also tried setting the character set to UTF-8 ? I use ASP and have "response.CharSet = "utf-8" " in my header.

Can i merge two cell in BO Reports?

Hi!
I'm new to this BO. I've already posted my problem in some other place in this forum. Now, I think that may be a wrong place to post.
So, i'm posting this problem once more here.
I'm giving you that link which i've already posted (Otherwise it will be duplicate thing to post the entire content) ->
[Can i merge two cell in BO Reports?|Can i merge two cell in BO Reports?;
Sorry for this initial mess.
Waiting for your feedback.
Regards.
Satyaki De.

Thanks for your reply.
But, my requirement is slightly different than what you have shown.
I've created two reports say report 1 & report 2. And, it should looks like this ->
Report 1,
YEAR QT         P1         P2
2001 Q1                    25
2002 Q2         13         14
Report 2,
YEAR QT         P1         P2
2001 Q1          7         12
2002 Q2         10
And, my required final output should be ->
YEAR QT         P1         P2
2001 Q1          7         37
2002 Q2         23         14
So, as you can see - i'm merging and adding the values of two reports into one.
I'm using Oracle 10g as my DB. Is it possible that i can write some SQL query any where in any place of the reports that can do this staff. Then i can go for that kind of solution, too.
But, in that case i need to know where to write the query. Please reply.
But, first -> Is it at all possible in BO?
Thanks again for your valuable time to read this post.

Cell definations in reporting?

really we use cell definations in reporting in real time.
Thanking u
suneel.

Hi ,
Yes its required for some situations.
But you must have two structures in column and row then only u can use this option.
You have to use this some scenarios for example you are displaying time periods like Q1, Q2, Q3 & Q4 and Total in rows and amount values , percentage in column.
In this situation in order to show the total u can sum Q1Q2Q3+Q4 values but percentage u cannot some, so u have to use cell defination where u can calculate percentage using restricted key fig you can select and show this by using cell defination.
Assign points pls.........

Concatenation of Data from 4 infoobjects into a single cell in Bex Report

Hi,
I have loaded ODS with the description data. The source system for loading the ODS is the flat file. The ODS data should be a replica of the flat file.
In the flat file, there is a description field corresponding to a particular ID. This Description is greater than the standard 60 char length. So, I had to split the description while loading the flat file using single line routine in the Transfer Structure.
So, while loading different the data, I split the description field data from the flat file into 4 infoobjects and the flat file data was loaded into the ODS.
Now, from the reporting point of view, I need to display the entire description data from the 4 info-objects into a single cell in the Bex report.
Please suggest a solution for this.

User cannot see the "-" signs on amounts in ALV report

Hi all,
We have a problem with a user, who cannot see the signs on the amounts in an ALV report:
<a href="http://img66.imageshack.us/img66/1424/nataliabr9.jpg">Report without signs</a>
The user has tested this report with his user, and another test user, on his computer and on another computer. It does not change anything, he cannot see the signs "-" on the amounts.
But when I launch the same report on the same client, I cann see the signs:
<a href="http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/1203/moigl3.jpg">Report with signs</a>
So, I think it does not come from his user (he has tested with two different users), or from his computer (he has tested on two different computers).
Do you have any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

Having seen and "played" with an NB100-12a the other day I must agree that the grey letters on black keys
aren't a clever idea - its bad enough that the keys are so small also.
I currently own a satellite Pro with which I am very happy ( apart from the inclusion of Windows Vista which I
don't particularily like ) and found this machine easy to "drive" BUT due to the keyboard size and lettering
I won't be buying one ( unless they do a redesign - an acer aspire one keyboard and touchpad or NC10 style
design ) and I think that the price of these machines has recently dropped from approx £300 to approx £270
due to poor take up by the public mainly for the above reasons.
Sorry Toshiba looks like i'll be buying an NC10 - unless I hear of a possible redesign.#
