Copying formula using different sheet but same cells

How can I copy this incredibly long formula into different cells but change the sheet that it's referencing without typing in the sheet name in every instance it occurs (at least 28 times right now).
Is this something I'm going to have to use an outside editor (ie text edit, pages) to find & replace?

I don't know which is the "incredibly long formula" but I know that Jerrold described the required scheme in the late 48 hours !
In one fixed cell of your table (A1 is a good choice), store the name of the sheet to address.
Then, in the formulas, use the function INDIRECT to compute the cell's reference grabbing the sheet name from the cell A1 (with an absolute reference : $A$1)
This way, when you will paste the formula in an other table, it will grab the sheet name from the cell A1 of this new table.

    Why do you not want to use Active X?
    One very good reason that I can think of is that MS keeps changing their ActiveX interface with each version of Excel, so code written for one version of Excel using ActiveX may not work for another version of Excel, even though the basic functionality hasn't changed. A perfect example is when MS changed the "Value" property to "Value2". Yeah, that made a whole lot of sense.

    Then it's something you're doing. Please post your code. Have you tried a search on this forum for ActiveX and Excel? There have been tons of posts on it, including lots of examples. There's also the Excel thread.

  • Error MDX when executing WBI query with different prompt but same text

    Current version is BO XI 3.1 SP2 FP 2.6
    Connected with SAP BI7
    Identified problem :
    when using same text prompt in different filters, only the first one is correctly answered, the MDX code for following ones are not correctly generated : the engine uses the right filter but applied to the object from the first filter which gives a MDX code error.
    Example :
    In a report :
    - asking a user choice on 'document month' for operational view
    - using the same answer to fill up the 'posting month' in financial view
    Document month (0FISCPER) filter is filter !V000001
    Posting month (FISCPLCD) filter is filter !V000002
    Question text is unique : "Single Year Period ?" and should be sent to both prompts/variable.
    When using the same text prompt, the MDX code generated is :
    SELECT  { [Measures].[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y] }  ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( [0FISCPER].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, [FISCPLCD].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION ON ROWS FROM [CATS_M01A/ZGL_CATS_UTILISATION] SAP VARIABLES [!V000001] INCLUDING [FISCPLCD].[Z12010006]
    Please notice that in this generated code, the filter !V000001 is applied to the FISCPLCD object, while filter !V000001 is related to document month. A MDX error is generated.
    Any clue to solve this issue ?
    Thank you for your help.

    Ok, I've simplified the case.
    Here is the real case :
    Object filter =
    Based on object =
    .[LEVEL01]
    Object filter =
    Based on object =
    .[LEVEL01]
    In WBI query result I take these objects :
    .[LEVEL01]
    .[LEVEL01]
    .[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y]
    In query filters, my 2 filters with same text :
    1.
    I run the query.
    Answer to question 'Single Year Period ?' = Period 06 2010
    ==> MDX error
    A database error occured. The database error text is: Echec de l'exécution de la requête MDX SELECT  { .[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y] }  ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION ON ROWS FROM SAP VARIABLES INCLUDING .[Z12010006] INCLUDING .[Z12010006] avec l'erreur Invalid MDX command with . (WIS 10901)
    And you can see that the value sent to both filters is the same and come from the first filter .[Z12010006] instead of applying the value to each filter .[Z12010006] for the first one and .[Z12010006] for the second one.
    Please, notice that if I change the order of this 2 filters in the WBI query, the MDX generated become :
    SELECT  { .[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y] }  ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION ON ROWS FROM SAP VARIABLES INCLUDING .[Z12010006] INCLUDING .[Z12010006]
    Thanks for your help.

  • How have two people using diff clients but same app, and have app know that

    I want to have an app called XMLReader that reads an xml file and then puts it into a JTree. Then I want the person to be able to edit it. But I also want to be able to lock it (using mutex or synchronization) so if someone else on the same network opens up XMLReader, then they cannot edit it at the same time. Also, when they open their app and then Person A edits it, I want it to notify Person B's app.
    Does anyone know how to do this? Can it be done with the two instances and no server?

    ok
    i try
    my solution is
    make a interface which has the method which edit the xmlreader to the user whom u want to give the access of
    editing make all the other methods which the other users can use in a different interface and give that instances to them
    hope u will understand the hints if u want more explanation i will give
    in this case make all the other users to register with the Xml reader to get the notifications if the Xml reader is changed by the user who can access
    so it will be quite easy for u now to notify the users when the file is edited
    it can be done both in single JVM and also in different JVM(client server)

  • One target table is loading from two different source but same columns but one source is in a database and other is in a flat file.

    Hope you all are doing good.
    I have a business issue to be implemented in ODI 11G. Here it is. I am trying to load a target table from two sources having same coulmn names. But one source is in file format and other is in Oracle Database.
    This is what i think i will create two mappings in the same interface using Union between the sources. But i am not sure how the interface would connect to different logical architecture to connect to two different sources.
    Thanks,
    SM

    You are on the right track, this can all be done in a single interface. Do the following
    1) Pull your file data model into the source designer and and your target table model to the target pane.
    2) Map all the relevant columns
    3) In the source designer create a new dataset and choose the UNION join type (this will create a separate tab in the source designer pane)
    4) Select the new dataset tab in the source designer pane and pull your source oracle table data model into the source designer. Map all the relevant columns to the target
    5) Make sure that your staging location is defined on a relational technology i.e. in this case the target would be an ideal candidate as that is where ODI will stage the data from both file and oracle source and perform the UNION before loading to the target
    If you want to look at some pretty screenshots showing the steps above take a look at http://odiexperts.com/11g-oracle-data-integrator-part-611g-union-minus-intersect/

  • Copying formulas among different  tables

    I have a sheet with multiple tables in it.  When I copy a formula from table b to table c, any formulas that are in table b continue to reference table a instead of changing to reference table b.   All formula values are relative and I would assume that copying to table c from b would cause these formulas to reallocate their positions.
    Any help on how to do this?

    Hi Jason
    If the reference to the table is adjusted on the iPad, it's a huge change in the application.
    In Numbers4mac, the pasted formula continue to point to the table to which it pointed in the source table.
    The formula =Table A :: B2 in table B
    remains
    =Table A :: B2 when we paste it in table C
    The reference to a table or a sheet is always absolute.
    Only references of cells in a table may be relative.
    Given that,
    If cell A3 of table B contains the formula = Table A :: A2,
    if we copy the formula and paste it in cell A3 of table C the new formula will be
      = Table A :: A2
    If we paste in cell B6 of table C, the new formula will be :
    =Table A :: B5
    It's a  logical behavior.

  • Lens profiles for different bodies, but same sensor size?

    I downloaded LR 4.1 RC today.  Some of my lenses are not profiled in LR so I then downloaded Lens Profile Downloader Preview 3 to see if there are any profiles available for download.  For some lenses I found profiles, but they were not done on the same body that I have (same sensor size though).   Can I use profiles for lenses if they are for a camera body that is different than mine, but still the same sensor size?  My understanding is that wiht a lens profile LR will automatically correct distortion, vignetting, and CA.  Will that work if my body is different than the body used to profile the lens?  Thank you.

    You can find this statement:

  • TimeMachine / Migration Assistant and a different UID, but same username

    Hello there,
    I am going to do a clean reinstall of my Macs with Mountain Lion (no need to discuss clean install vs. upgrade, please). During this shift the goal is to transfer all accounts into Open Directory. While keeping the account names, the UIDs will be different.
    Doing a clean install, I can see no use in restoring all stuff in a users profile, for some is old, useless and maybe the related application is long gone. But there are a couple of items worth to be saved, for sure: emails, contacts, calendar, favorites, iTunes library, the users documents and very important: purchased Items from iTunes or App Store and the keychain of cause. Users agreed, that they can rebuild settings of other applications, not listed before.
    Will the Migration Assistant the right path to go? Can I use a TimeMachine Backup and restore it for a user with the same name, but a different UID using the Migration Assistant? Will there be any pitfall for purchased items or the keychain?
    Thanx for your help

    No.  Migration Assistant restores user accounts and data (although you can omit some broad categories).  It won't "merge" data into an existing home folder.  
    When it does that, it will preserve the UID on the backups if it can; if the same UID already exists, it will use a different one. 
    If a user account of the same name already exists, it will require you to rename one of them, or skip it.
    Note that, if you use it when OSX first starts up on a new Mac, or after installation on an empty volume, it's called Setup Assistant.  The windows are a bit different, but the only significant difference is, since there aren't any user accounts already, it can preserve all UIDs and user names from the backups.

  • Compare files in different formats but same order

    Java Developers,
    I have a serious problem here "Comparing two files"... in Java.
    We recieve 2 emails which talk about the same thing but not in the same format. one comes from my company and the other email comes from partner company. These 2 companies have their own standards and their own codes. so their emails do not match exactly.
    I should check whether the contents of these 2 files are same or not. Line by Line they r not at all same, entirely different formats as I mentioned earlier. but somewhere in between there will be same headers for eg: "Service Details" section . once u see that word in both the files then compare the fields under that section, check whether they r same or not. here also the fields are not the same, one says AB and another says '12' , I shud check whether they mean the same thing or not. We have a dictionary and a table which says AB ='12', Everyday we get around 200 sets of such matching emails. how to read them, how to process them and how to see whether they match or not.

    Also look at the java.util.regex package.
    Beyond that, "How do I write a program that does <complex requirements statement>?" is not an appropriate question for these forums. If you're totally stuck and don't know where to begin on that, then you're probably not qualified to do it. That's not intended as an insult, just a reality check.

  • Sharing calendars between different macs but same .mac account

    I need to share ical calendars between 2 store locations and my home office. I have only 1 .mac account, and I created a new calendar on each machine and sent the publish email from each machine to the other ones to invcite them to subscribe. That was working fine, but now, when i loggon to one machine it has the wrong calendar as read only. so it seems, that .mac doesn't know which computer is the owner of each calendar.
    has anyone encountered this?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You need to start over:
    .Mac is for synchronising, not for publish/subscribe. You need to keep the original calendar(s) and unsubscribe from the remote locations. Next, [on each machine] enter your dotmac account details in the dotmac System Preference Pane. The click on the second tab "Sync", choose to "Synchronise with .Mac Automatically" after you have checked the box next to Calendars.
    You will be prompted on your first sync to establish which is the master data: on the machine with your original calendars choose to overwrite .Mac with data from this mac; on the others choose to overwrite data on this mac with data from .Mac.
    You should then have read/write access to all the calendars on all the machines (provided each of them is using the same dotmac account).
    Make sure you back-up valuable data before starting.
