Calculation of numerical cells

Hi,
I have created a table in a dynamic form where the user can add or remove rows as required. In the final row which is fixed I want the cells to auto calculate the numbers entered in the cells above. Can this be achieved in LiveCycle Designer?
Many thanks in advance
Lee

Hey radsmar, I have a similar situation. I am trying to sum the first 9 rows of the "Premium" rows in the table below in the 10th row. The first 9 rows have a binding title of "Premium" and the 10th row has a binding title of "total". I have put:
form1.#subform[0].Table2.Row10.total::calculate - (FormCalc, client)
$=Sum(Row[*].Premium)
but it doesn't work. Any ideas?

Function to replace division by zero error cells with blank cells when calculating a numeric average

Hi everyone,
I have a five sheet spreadsheet that uses data from four sheets to calculate numeric averages in the fifth. The problem is that there is not always data in all four sheets which produces a division by zero error in the averages sheet. Is there a function or setting in Numbers 2.3 (not yet ready to upgrade to Numbers 3) that will allow these division by zero cells to be replaced by blank cells.
I have tried using statements of the form =AVERAGE(IFERROR(Sheet 1::Table 1:: B4,""),IFERROR(Sheet 2:: Table 1:: B4,""),Sheet 3:: Table 1:: B4,""), Sheet 4:: Table 1:: B4,"")). however instead of a division by zero error this produces an error telling me "the function AVERAGE expects that a number, date or duration but found "." ". It looks as though I will have to make about 400 changes to my sheet as these errors are in this and approximately 100 other cells!
I am hoping that there is some way if possible of correcting these errors without having to manually edit each cell individually.
Thanks,
Hugh

Hugh,
You may want to consider an intermediate sheet to handle the errors and then pass the result on to the main sheet.
In the following mockup, I've created a small interposing table the consists of a list of sources in column A and the result from each table. In the example, I perform some operation on those intermediate results, to be passed on to the main table. This may not be a good example, and since I don't know the overall goal of your project it's just a surrogate. (In real life we probably wouldn't be interested in finding the average of averages.)
The expression in Summary::B2 is:
=IFERROR(INDIRECT(A&"::B4"), "SourceError")

Jerry

Calculating on Numeric Fields

It was very easy to add a calculation field in previous versions of Adobe. This one has got me. I'm trying to create a field that sums other fields. I don't know where to add the script or the language. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Add the script in the calculate field of the field that you want to display the calculation, ie something like
this.rawValue = form1.blaa.rawValue + form1.foo.rawValue
(where blaa and foo are the fields that you want to sum)
make sure all the fields are decimal fields or numerical fields if you want to sum them.
(oh, and you can set the text field to be Calculated in Object, Value, Type, but this is not essential)

Numeric cell in Tree control ?

Hi y'all !
I'd like to have numeric input cells in my TREE CONTROL. I can see the types string, ring, combo box, etc. ... but NUMERIC is not included.
I'm using CVI 2012.
Is there an alternative or does anyone know at least why it is not supported ?
Thanks!

Hi carolynturnell,
Indeed cell types included in a tree control are String,Ring, ComboBox, CheckBox, ColorPicker and HorizontalBar.
Tree controls are used to view a hierarchical list of items.
Why do you want to display Numeric/use tree control ?

How to do quick calculations within a cell

for example, I'm making a spreadsheet to track my expenses on my trip ... going through receipts, if a cell already has a value in it and I want to just add to that number without having to run to a calculator ... how?
also, how do I make the header and very first column sticky so that they float no matter where I am in the spreadsheet?
thanks!

I'd like to add detail to what was already suggested. You could press = and enter in the amounts and operator easy enough, similar to a calculator. Or you may want to enter each amount in its own cell, then sum them up in a separate cell.
For instance, in a column, enter each amount. Then either
- select the cells in the column, and from the toolbar, click on Function and choose Sum.
- or, in a cell type =SUM( and select the cells you want to sum. Their references will be entered into the formula automatically.
For something more structured and ongoing, you could set up several tables for expenses. Then set up a summary table.
You can get as detailed as you want. For example, you can have a table for each category of expense: one for Hotel Expenses, one for Food, etc... Or you could break it up by date: one table for all the expenses for Day 1, one table for Day 2, etc...
Also, you asked about sticky headers. If you view sheet in Print View, then the headers repeat on each page. Not perfect, but a workaround.
I mentioned the multiple table setup because it seems to me Apple may have left the sticky headers out of Numbers to encourage thinking about setting your data up in multiple tables. This has taken me a little time to get used to, but now that is pretty much how I think about it when setting up any spreadsheet. Breaking it up into multiple tables, then the lack of a sticky header is less of an issue (although I agree it would still be nice to have).
(Sorry if this detail is too basic. I imagine a novice user finding it useful).

I want to search for two strings of text throughout numerous cells

I can get a formula to search an individual cell using this:
=IFERROR((IF((SEARCH(String1,SearchString,1)+SEARCH("String2",SearchString,1))>0 ,"Yes","No")),"No")
How can I search a bunch of cells at the same time?
Thanks.

What do you want to do? The solution depends on how you want to use the results that you find. You can also use the fund feature of the Number (<command> + "f") or the menu item "Edit > Find > Show Find"
or you can use the filter feature of the reorganize panel:
Not filtering:
Filtering
to open the reorganize panel... click the button in the tool bar OR
select the menu item "Table > Show Reorganize Panel"

JTable Numeric cell editor

Does anybody can post very simple cell renderer or cell editor class.
I need i my table for example in the second column in all rows possible to enter only digits (0...9) for example 125689 but 4578f78 is not valid.
Pointer should stay at editable cell until user enter valid value.
Thanks a lot

Hello, yes it is good example thanks.
But i need some how to inform user that he entering bad value.
Now user cant leave cell until enter proper value.
I need some how to show InputDialog when user wants to leave a cell and he must shoose edit or leave if leave need to restore value as was before.

Hp 50g Calculator: controlling NUMERIC SOLVER search zone

Hi,
I have looked in User Guide about :"Solving equations with one unknown through NUM.SLV" (pages 6-13 and 6-14)
In my opinion , the user guide is wrorng there:
They resresent the number 4.5006E-2 as a solution to this equation: exp(x)-sin(pi*x/3)=0
x= 4.5006E-2 is NOT a solution for that equation,
x= 4.5006E-2 is an extremum for that function (a local minimum point)
After further reading I understand the Numerical solver will find a ZERO or EXTREMUM,
the same is applied to the command ROOT
(in the case of ROOT command, you cannot know if what was found is a zero or an extremum)
I want to know please How can I narrow (or controll) the search zone of those solvers?
in other HP calculators (like HP42S and HP32SII) you can give TWO start guesses so the search will be ONLY between those two guesses.
Can I do the same here?
Thank you

Hi,
For the form-based solver, a single initial guess close to the desired solution or two guesses between which will be searched can be provided by setting the variable to the value of the guess:
For one initial guess:
First set X=-3 by entering -3 when X value is highlighted. Highlight the X value again and select SOLVE, the answer of -3.04544... will be given. (this is explained on p6-15).
For two guesses between which will be searched:
First set X= {-2 -4} by entering {-2 -4} when X value is highlighted. Highlight the X value again and select SOLVE, the answer of -3.04544... will be given.
Similarly, the ROOT function can either be provided with a single guess near the desired point, or two guesses between which will be searched.
Format for ROOT with one guess:
3:    exp(X)-sin(pi*X/3)=0      // expression
2:                     'X'     // variable to be solved for
1:                     -3      // initial guess close to the desired point
Executing ROOT will then give the solution of -3.04544...
Format for ROOT with a two-value range for the guess :
3:    exp(X)-sin(pi*X/3)=0      // expression
2:                     'X'     // variable to be solved for
1:                {-2 -4}      // initial guess range around the desired point
Again, executing ROOT will give the solution of -3.04544...
Note, the manual uses the word "solution" in the context of anything that is either a root, minimum or maximum. (The AUR specifically uses the terms "root or solution" when describing SOLVE, SOLVEVX or ROOT).
Best regards.
Note: I do not work for HP, I just like playing with calculators :-)

Problem Adding Calculations to Currency Formated Cells

I have a cell that is formated in currency (USD in this case, i.e. $1,000) and I want to add a calculation to that cell. I double click on the cell with the $1,000, put the cursor at the begining of the cell (before the $) and push "=". A forumula rounded box with a X and √ appears. I type in "+500". Now what shows is "=$1,000+500". I push return and get a syntax error! I now have to go back and delete the comma and the $. Yuck.
It's even worse, if you have a cell with $10 in it. Then the above process thinks it referencing row 10!
Excel handles this issue seamlessly.
Any ideas? Is this a bug?

Numbers is not MS Excel, and MS Excel is not Numbers. Each application has features that are not supported by the other.
Not a bug, although it does appear to be a not-well-thought-out feature.
The issue is that once the $ is in the entry box, the whole "$1,000" is perceived (within that cell) as a text string. Any formula using one of the arithmetic operators will choke on text.
The second use of the $ sign is as the absolute reference operator. If it preceded a number equal to or smaller than the largest row number on the table, the combination will be interpreted in a formula as an absolute reference to that row, or to the cell in that row in the same column as the formula; whichever better fits the reference in that formula.
Either way, you're not going to get the result you want, and you are likely to get a syntax error message.
OTOH, in a cell where the fixed number has been entered as the result of an equation (eg. =1000), formatting the cell as currency will change the displayed value, but not the value as it appears in the entry box. Neither the $ sign nor the thousands separator (,) will appear, you will be able to append "+500" (without the quotes) to the end of the formula, and you will get the expected result ( $1,500) displayed in the cell. And, as the formula itself contains NO $, the issue of 10 being recognized as a row reference will not arise.
For my own use, I'd simply avoid the currency format except for summary cells. A column containing a list of numerical values (with two places after the decimal) is easily recognized as a list of currency amounts, even without to $ sign. The same list with the sign applied to every value is cluttered, and more difficult to read.

Barry
PS: If you want this feature changed in a future edition of Numbers, your best route is to Provide Numbers Feedback, using the menu item of that name in the Application menu (in Numbers, the "Numbers" menu). The link will also take you to the feedback page.

Cell calculations showing header text rather than data

This has to be simple, but I am stumped.
I have added header text to a SS. Now when I attempt to add a calculation to a cell in the SS Numbers is showing the text in the calculation rather than the cell data or cell location.
How do I stop this? Just want to see something like this: =F13-(E13*4)
but I get this
=On Hand Now test line-(Monthly Average test line*Cal. 212 West Jackson Street)
Numbers does put the the correct numeric result in the proper cell but I don't want to see the above.

How to use part of a cell for calculation

Hi,
I get 4-6 with this formula in cell D5 =IF(ISTEXT(F5),SUM($J$4:J4)+1&"-"&SUM($J$4:J5),"-")
and again 4-6 in E5 with this formula =IF(B4=B5,(SUM($J$4:J4)+1&"-"&SUM($J$4:J5)),(SUM(J4:J4)+1&"-"&SUM(J4:J5))).
I want to use the number 4 and 6 from D5 and E5 for calculations in other cells, How can I do that ?
Please help. Is it possible ?
regards

Hi Asadulla Javed,
Actually I want to achieve this.
1. If there is name in F column then number in G column is counted in D column and if it is number in F then there is - in D column.
2. When next time it meet condition in column F, it calculates serial from above where - was not.
3. In E column counts G column irrespective of data in F. But it starts from 1 with a new date in column B.
I did it with the help of other columns. That disturbs the worksheet calculations and other function. I need to achieve this by formula here in D and E columns.
If possible,
Please help here.

Total of calculated fields

In a page-detail table report, there are several numeric fields which must be totalled at the end of the report.
Some of the fields are calculated ones, i.e. a dollar amount multiplied by a conversion rate.
The total of the calculated fields are always blank whether I run the report in DESKTOP or I run the report in PLUS.
Any suggestions?
Thank you.
Leah

HI,
Two things you should try:
a) put a to_number(nvl(field,0)) on the calculation
b) Try cell sum instead of regular sum.
Hope it will help you solve the problem

Create a VC Model for BEx queries with Cell Editor

Hello All,
I am trying to create a VC Model for BEx queries with Cell Editor.
BW Development Team has created a BEX query with complex restrictions and calculations using Cell Editor feature of BI-BEX.
The query output in BEx analyzer is correct where all values are being calculated at each Cell level and being displayed.
But, while creating VC model, system is not displaying the Cells.Thus, no VC Model can be created.
I have executed below steps:
1. Created a VC Model for BEx Query - ZQRY_XYZ
2. Create Iview -> Create a dataService -> Provide a Table from the Output
In the Column field system is not showing any of the Cells (present in Cell Editor)
Please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks,
Siva

Hi
If 'Cell Editor' is been used then that query must have the structure in it. You have to select that 'structure' object in your 'VC Table'.
If you select that then you will get the required result in the output. This structure will be the structure where 'cell reference' is used in BI query, You have to select that structures name.
