Assigning a literal space to a report cell

Hi
I want a report column cell to be assigned a specific background colour depending on the value of another column. I can get conditional formatting to work fine by conditionally setting background and foreground colour in the SELECT statement, but what I really want is to use a dummy column as a means to conditionally display a 'bar' of colour as a red / amber / green indicator for the row.
I believe that I have to assign a literal space ( ) to the column to do this, but don't know how to do this in SQL via an UPDATE. Any help or ideas appreciated.
Jules

UPDATE your_table
    SET your_column = ' ';If your column in your table is a VARCHAR column a value of space will be converted to NULL in an update statement. NULL will be stored in the database. This will not help you.
Could you set your_column in the database table to any value and set the foreground column color to match the background color in the report region? Then you should not see the value on the screen, right?

  • 10.5.3 assigning apps to Spaces issue

    *2. When in the Spaces preferences, you used to be able to click on an application in the list and DRAG it to the space you want to assign it to.* For example:
    a. Open Spaces preferences
    b. Click on the + (plus) button to add an application to the Application Assignments list, let's say Address Book
    c. Once the Application is in the list, click and drag it to the space to assign it to, say, Space 3.
    d. The application SHOULD now be assigned to that space.
    Since 10.5.3, I'm not able to drag any application to the space to assign it. It doesn't change the space assignment. I can still select the space in the dropdown.
    Can anyone else confirm either of these (either the Warnings in the console or the behavior I'm seeing)? Neither my Mac Pro or MacBook work correctly.
    -Kevin

    I cannot replicate your problems, so I would assume either you upgraded over an already dysfucntional system or your update was corrupted in some way.
    To start I would suggest you download the 10.5.3 Combo Updater and reinstall it after you do the following:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If this does not resolve the problem, then you will need to reinstall OS X. Assuming the disk is OK you can do that as follows (you will need about 10 GBs of free space or more:)
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • Query on using Spaces feature to assign applications to spaces

    I like the new Spaces feature, having been a user of VirtueDesktops before.
    I have an issue with assigning an application to a particular Space.
    The instructions from Help are below. I was able to do this for 4 applications, which seems to be as many as fit into the window available for listing them. Then, I hit the "+" to add other applications that are already running. When the pop-up menu appears, it does not list those applications (it does list Finder and the System Preferences that is running). So I go ahead and pick the application off the list from my Applications/ directory. It doesn't then appear in the list of applications in Spaces so that I can assign it to a particular space.
    I assume that there isn't a limit to the number of applications I can assign in this way. Or is there a limit of 4.
    In addition, when I use the Help feature on the Spaces assignment preferences panel, this text appears:
    "To choose a space for the application, click the current space and choose from the pop-up menu."
    However, it is not clear what "click the current space" means. One of the little numbered box images for the spaces that I have? Nothing happens when I click them.
    Thanks for help.
    (Optional) To assign an application to a particular space, click the Add button and choose the application.
    ■
    If you want the application to always open in a particular space, click the pop-up menu and choose the number for the space you want.
    ■
    If you want an application to always be available, no matter which space you’re in, open the pop-up menu and choose Every Space.

    You cannot add the same application you already assigned to a Space.
    When you click the + sign, the pop-up menu shows the running applications which have not been assigned to a Space. If an application has been assigned to a Space, it will not be shown in that menu because the System Preferences/Expose/Spaces preference pane is used only for assigning applications to Spaces. If it is already assigned, there is no need to show it because it cannot be assigned to another Space. In that menu if you select “other” it will open your Applications folder, but any apps that have been assigned (and others that are not applications) will be grayed out. Perhaps what you are trying to do is assign the same application to two different Spaces. This cannot be done with the virtual desktop in Leopard, Spaces.
    You said you had experience with other virtual desktops. Those often let the user assign an application to two or three or more desktops. Spaces does not allow that. An application can be assigned to one Space or all Spaces, but not anything in between.
    I have interacted with other users who have experience using other virtual desktops and see this as flaw in Spaces. Perhaps it is. I have not worked with other virtual desktops. But this is how Spaces operates as a virtual desktop: an application can be assigned to one Space or all Spaces, but not 2, 3, 4 or any other number.
    If you see this as a big drawback with Spaces, you should notify Apple. I don’t remember the website for reporting bugs and suggestions, but you should be able to find it on these forums.
    If you are trying to navigate to the application running in Space 5, hold down the Control key and press the number 5 key. If you want to move the application in Space 5 to an adjacent Space, grab a window of the application in Space 5 and drag it to the any of the four edges of that window and it will switch to that Space. However, if you quit that application and open it again, it will open in its assigned Space, Space 5.

  • Report cells as page items

    Hello all,
    I'm trying to make an updateable report w/o using HTML DB's wizards and was wondering if report cells could somehow be stored in page items. I know that report cells are referenced using #COL01#, #COL02#, #COL03#, etc. within the report region. Am I able to reference these columns outside of the report region and possibly store them in page items? I know that I can do so by using column links inside of the report and assigning the values to items through the url. I was wondering if I can reference the report column values in some other way. Thanks for any input.
    - Kenny R.

    hey kenny--
    if you're building your own tabular forms using htmldb, you should probably take a look at...
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/database/htmldb/howtos/tabular_form.html
    ...when you get a chance. re referencing those tabular form cell values outside of your tabluar form region, i'd consider these two approaches:
    1) if acceptable, you could store those tab form values to htmldb items when the page is submitted. the how-to above is very clear about how to do that.
    2) if you need those tab form values in session state before that form is submitted, consider selecting your form data into a Collection and running your tabular form query off that collection. the how-to above shows you how to use a collection for your tablular form (they're using it for validations, but the concept's still the same).
    hope this helps,

  • Assigning a T-code to the report created under transaction code (SQVI)

    Dear Gurus,
    I have joined three tables in t-code SQVI and created the report after assigning the required fields in list or selected views.

    Kindly let me know how can I assign the T-code to this Report.
    Thanks,
    Abhishek

    Follow the following steps:
    1. Make a transaction with parameters transaction from se93 .
    2. Put START_REPORT in the transaction
    3. Check the skip intial screen checkbox
    4. in the table control in the end of screen put these values
    D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE = AQ
    D_SREPOVARI-REPORT = <USER GROUP in WHICH THE QUERY IS CREATED> G

  • How can I add dots after text to fill the remaining space in a table cell?

    What is the most efficient way to add dots after text to fill the remaining space in a table cell? I know it is possible using tabs but is this possible using a table?

    You can put a tab inside a table cell using Option+Tab
    Then just set the right-aligned tab stop and the right edge of the table cell and add the leader.

  • Why can't I assign applications to spaces anymore?

    I used to have my different apps (Mail, iTunes, Safari) open in separate spaces and the SAME space every time.  I did this by right clicking on the open app icon in the dock and selecting options > Assign to > This desktop.  This no longer works.  Now applications ALWAYS open in the first space.  When I right click on the icon now there is NO OPTION to assign where the app opens.  The ONLY application I still have this option for is safari.  For all  the others it has disappeared.  For example now when I right click on the mail icon the only options I have are: Keep in Dock, Open at Login, Show in Finder.  There used to be the option to assign Mail to the current desktop, all desktops or none.  That option has now disappeared.  The same goes for iTunes and other apps.
    Please note that I was well aware of how to assign apps to desktops before.  Since 10.8.4 that option has now disappeared from my interface.  Mission control offers no way to assign apps to spaces either.  What happened?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Change the background color in a report cell - td bgcolor

    Hi.
    I have a report in which I would like to change the background color of a table cell based on some values in the underlying query
    If Column A > Column B and Column C > 10, I want to color the background green. In my cgi , this was easy, but in apex, even if I write the query to output html, won't everything already be wrapped in the <td></td> tags? Is there any way around this?
    Thanks

    Mike ,
    With the above solution you can conditionally fill the report cell with a particular color and not the entire row set. If you want to highlight entire row, you have to do something different. Take a look at this jQuery function
    Step 1 . Download jquery http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.2.min.js
    Step 2. Upload it to apex image folder using shared component.
    Step 3. In the page header put the following code
    <script src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#jquery-1.4.js" type="text/javascript" ></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
         if ($('.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA').length > 0) {
              function HighLightRows(){
                                       $("table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tbody td:has(COLOR_GRAY)").siblings().addClass('greentd');
                                       $("table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tbody td:has(COLOR_GRAY)").addClass('greentd');
                                       $("table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tbody td:has(COLOR_GREEN)").siblings().addClass('graytd');
                                       $("table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tbody td:has(COLOR_GREEN)").addClass('graytd');
         // This time out is required since after the report is refreshed via AJAX,
                                  setTimeout(function(){HighLightRows();},1000);
         }//if
    HighLightRows();
    </script>
    <style type="text/css">
    .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td.greentd
    background-color: green !important;
    .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td.graytd
    background-color: gray !important;
    </style>
    Step 4. Change the SQL Query to
    SELECT
         SALE_DATE
         ,PRODUCT_NAME
         ,PRODUCT_ID
         , CASE WHEN SALE_DATE > ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE,-2) THEN
                     '<COLOR_GREEN>&#38;nbsp;</COLOR_GREEN>'
              ELSE
                      '<COLOR_GRAY>&#38;nbsp;</COLOR_GRAY>'
         PRODUCT_NAME_COLOR
    FROM SALES;
    Step 5. Make this new column PRODUCT_NAME_COLOR visible and in the column heading u can just put &#38;nbsp;.
    As long as this column will be available for display you will see the conditional highlighting.Thanks,
    Manish

    I need to Delete the empty space page of report 
    http://imageshack.com/a/img540/191/nrOwz6.jpg
    I Need Help!!
    Thanks

    Hi yha10,
    Per my understanding that you want to add one textbox at the bottom of the tablix and make it display as the last on each page after the tablix, you have try to add the page footer but if there is little record in the report you will got some space between
    the report footer and the last row of the tablix, right?
    If you don't want to display the space and I suggest you don't use the report footer and you can take reference to the details information below to display the information as the last row of the tablix on each page:
    Right click the Details in the Row Group and select to Add Group-->Parent Group:
    and add this expression in the Group By:
    =Ceiling(RowNumber(Nothing)/10)
    (10 is the number of rows you want to display on each page)
    Right click the row group to select the "Group Properties" and add page break by check the "Between each instance of a group":
    Right click the first column which the Group located and select the Insert Row-Inside Group-Below:
    Select the Entire Column1(Group) and delete columns:
    Merge the entire last Row and type the information "I need to show on all the page" in it:

    a) Turn off your CAPS LOCK as it's considered rude to shout.
    b) format your code using [code][/code] or [pre][/pre] tags so that people can actually read it.
    I assume this relates to your other query: I am struggling...........plzzzzz help
    You can assign data larger than 32767 bytes by using CLOBs, so what exactly is the problem?
