Copying month format to the right

as with excel, i typed "Oct 2007" in a cell, and numbers displays "Oct-07". Good, exactly what i hoped for!
now, i want to create a month series to the right by dragging the lower right part of the cell to the right.
unfortunately, it does not give me months "Nov-07 Dec-07 ..." but rather successive days.
I searched discussion threads, user manual, and found no relief. any assist appreciated!

I typed "Oct 2007" in a cell, and numbers displays "Oct-07". Good, exactly
what i hoped for!
When I do that, it displays October 1, 2007. You must have your default formatting for dates already set to "MMM-YY".
Now, i want to create a month series to the right by dragging the lower right
part of the cell to the right.
If the first cell IS formatted exactly as you want thi, then <Copy> the original date, <PASTE> it into the next cell, select BOTH cells together, THEN drag the lower right corner to the right.

  • Copying a table with the right-click menu in schema browser fails to copy comments when string has single quote(s) (ascii chr(39))

    Hi,
    I'm running 32-bit version of SQL Developer v. 3.2.20.09 build 09.87, and I used the built in context menu (right-clicking from the schema browser) today to copy a table.  However, none of the comments copied.  When I dug into the PL/SQL that the menu-item is using, I realized that it fails because it doesn't handle single quotes within the comment string.
    For example, I have a table named WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT that I wanted to copy as WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 (within same schema name)
    1. I right-clicked on the object in the schema browser and selected Table > Copy...
    2. In the pop-up Copy window, I entered the new table name "WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1" and ticked the box for "Include Data" option.  -- The PL/SQL that the menu-command is using is in the "SQL" tab of this window.  This is what I extracted later for testing the issue after the comments did not copy.
    Result: Table and data copied as-expected, but no column or table comments existed.
    I examined the PL/SQL block that the pop-up window issued, and saw this:
    declare
      l_sql varchar2(32767);
      c_tab_comment varchar2(32767);
      procedure run(p_sql varchar2) as
      begin
         execute immediate p_sql;
      end;
    begin
    run('create table "BI_ETL".WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 as select * from "BI_ETL"."WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT" where '||11||' = 11');
    select comments into c_tab_comment from sys.all_TAB_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and comments is not null;
    run('comment on table BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 is '||''''||c_tab_comment||'''');
    for tc in (select column_name from sys.all_tab_cols where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT')
        loop
       for c in (select comments from sys.all_col_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and column_name=tc.column_name)
       loop
       run ('comment on column BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1.'||tc.column_name||' is '||''''||c.comments||'''');
    end loop;
    end loop;
    EXCEPTION
      WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
    end;
    The string of the table comment on WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT is this:
    WBIG table of frozen, point-in-time snapshots of Enrolled Students by Category/term/pidm. "Category" is historically, and commonly, our CENSUS snapshot; but, can also describe other frequencies, or categorizations, such as: End-of-Term (EOT), etc. Note: Prior to this table existing, Census-snapshots were stored in SATURN.SNAPREG_ALL. All FALL and SPRING term records prior-to-and-including Spring 2013 ('201230') have been migrated into this table -- EXCEPT a few select prior to Fall 2004 (200410) records where there are duplicates on term/pidm. NO Summer snapshots existed in SNAPREG_ALL, but were queried and stored retroactively (including terms prior to Spring 2013) for the purpose of future on-going year-over-year analysis and comparison.
    Note the single quotes in the comment: ... ('201230')
    So, in the above PL/SQL line 11 grabs this string into "c_tab_comment", but then line 12 fails because of the single quotes.  It doesn't know how to end the string because the single quotes in the string are not "escaped", and this messes up the concatenation on line 12.  (So, then no other column comments are created either because the block throws an error, and goes to line 22 for the exception and exits.)
    When I modify the above PL/SQL as my own anonymous block like this, it is successful:
    declare
      c_tab_comment VARCHAR2(32767);
    begin
    SELECT REPLACE(comments,chr(39),chr(39)||chr(39)) INTO c_tab_comment FROM sys.all_TAB_comments WHERE owner = 'BI_ETL'   AND table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT'  AND comments IS NOT NULL;
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'comment on table BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 is '''||c_tab_comment||'''';
    for tc in (select column_name from sys.all_tab_cols where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT')
        loop
       for c in (select REPLACE(comments,chr(39),chr(39)||chr(39)) comments from sys.all_col_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and column_name=tc.column_name)
       loop
       EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'comment on column BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1.'||tc.column_name||' is '||''''||c.comments||'''';
    end loop;
    end loop;
    EXCEPTION
      WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
    end;
    On lines 4 and 8 I wrapped the "comments" from sys.all_tab_comments and sys.all_col_comments with a replace command finding every chr(39) and replacing with chr(39)||chr(39). (On line 8 I also had to alias the wrapped column as "comments" so line 10 would succeed.)
    Is this an issue with SQL Developer? Is there any chance that the menu-items can handle single quotes in comment strings? ... And, of course this makes me wonder which other context menu commands in the tool might have a similar issue.
    Thoughts?

    I know about quick drop, but it isn't helpful here. I want to be able to right click on a string or array wire, navigate to the string or array palette, and select the corresponding "Empty?" comparator. In this case, since I do actually know where those functions live, and I'm already using my mouse to right click on the wire, typing ctrl-space to open quick drop and then typing in the function name is actually more work than navigating to it in the palette. It would just be nice to have it on hand in the location I naturally go to look for it the first time. 
    I don't agree with this work flow.  Right hand on mouse, left hand on home keys.  Pressing CTRL + Space is done with the left hands, and then you could assign "ea" to "Empty Array" both of which is accessible with the left hand.  Darren posted a bunch of great shortcuts for the right handed developer.

    This is much faster than waiting for any right click menu navigation, even if it is found in the suggested subpalette.

    PAL is 720 x 576 pixels interlaced (bottom first).
    If it's 16:9 aspect ratio, you need to select "Anamorphic" and the frame rate it 25 fps.
    If you need help with Compressor settings - I use Best for everything including re-sizing - processing is slow but the result is excellent.
    I believe you can use MPEG Streamclip for converting, but I have not tried it.

  • I would like to transfer old reel-to-reel tapes to an iMac. There are different recordings on the left and right channel of the tapes. When I connect the tape deck to the Mac, I get one recording on the left, the other on the right speaker. What to do?

    I was about to transfer some music from a reel-to-reel machione to my Mac. There are different sound recordings on the left and right channels. When I connect with RCA cables and Y-connector, I hear one recording from the left speaker, another from the right side. How do I record only one side, but hear it from both speakers?
    Detlef

    You don't say what end, or connectors are plugged into what. I'm assuming the RCA connectors are on the reel-to-reel end. Since the tape has two different mono recordings, one on each track, you of course only want one at a time during playback. Otherwise, the Mac (or any recording setup) can only treat it as a stereo recording with the standard Left-Right tracks.
    1)  There are multiple ways to connect different types of cables to get a mono signal down to a stereo output at the Mac. Here's one way.
    2) Plug any RCA cable (single cable or stereo) into only the right or left RCA output of the reel-to-reel.
    3) On the other end of the RCA cable, plug in an adapter like this. That will feed the single RCA output into a mono 1/8" plug.
    4) Then plug that adapter into this. That turns the 1/8" mono signal into a "stereo" output with the same single track audio being fed to the Mac on both the left and right channels.
    5) Record either the left or right output of the reel-to-reel. Rewind the tape and switch the RCA connector on the reel-to-reel to the right channel (if you started with the left) and record that mono signal as stereo.
    Or, avoid all of this hardware mumbo-jumbo in the first place and do this:
    1) Record the audio just the way you have it. Two different recordings, one on each channel.
    2) Copy the audio recording to a new name and open it in your editor.
    3) Highlight the left track and copy/paste it into the right track. Presto! Mono recording of the left track on both channels. Save the recording.
    4) Repeat, only copy/pasting the right track into the left track and save the second recording.

  • Not the right format?

    I put a memory card from my Bushnell trail camera into my computer and some, but not all, the videos tell me it is not the right format. It worked fine for months before now. To day the first video and everything past number 6 give me this message, but videos 2-5 work fine. I upgraded quicktime and have no idea what else to do.

    When you scan them set it so that they are formatted jpeg which is for photos.
    PDF is for printed documents not photos.

  • I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Pro

    I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Project that is HD, and tried reconnect media with original HD movies (video), the sequence project got distorted for all the text, shapes used and all.. everything changed its orientation and scale.. Is there a way by which I can preserve my work done on DV PAL and switch it preserving its proportions, scale and orientation, but on a HD project sequence?? Appreciate your help and advice..

    Yes.  A couple of ways that might work.
    First Way
    What you need to do is load one of your hd clips in the viewer and edit into a new HD sequence.  Does it display correctionly? 
    OK, select the clip in the hd timeline and copy (command-c).  Now go to the HD sequence with the material that's distorted.  Select all (command-a) and paste attributes (option-v) and choose basic motion and distort.  That should maek things work.  What won't work is anything that you've adjusted as far as basic motion or distort in your PAL sequence.  That I'm pretty sure you'll have to redo.
    Second Way. 
    Choose your original PAL sequence and do a Media Manage changing the sequence preset to the appropriate HD paramenters with the media offline.  You then should be able to reconnect these clips with your original HD media.

  • I have copied over my music file to a new computer and the music shows on itunes but wont play. When I track where the song is located it is reading the wrong information. How do I change this as Edit Preferences has the right location

    I have copied over my music files to a new computer and the music shows on itunes but wont play. When I track where the song is located it is reading the wrong information. How do I change this as Edit>Preferences has the right location?

    Select one of the tracks with a broken link, press ctrl-i to Get Info. Say No when iTunes asks if you would like to locate the track, then look at the Summary tab for the location expects to find the file in.
    Now try to locate the file in question. The two locations should give a clue as to what to do next.
    Here is an example with a file I've deliberately moved from the new layout to the old pre-iTunes 9 layout.
    This means iTunes is expecting to find the file at:
    D:\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\a-ha\Take On Me\01 Take On Me.mp3
    but it isn't there because I've moved it to:
    D:\iTunes\iTunes Media\a-ha\Take On Me\01 Take On Me.mp3
    which is where it would have lived back in iTunes 8 (though the media folder would have been called iTunes Music back then as well).
    If you can provide the expected and actual locations of a broken track I should be able to suggest the easiest way to resolve things.

  • While using Skype on my mac pro the screen freezes and splits in two and the left hand side shifts to the right and the right shifts to the left with a large black block down the centre, should I take it back to store as it is only a month old??

    I have only had my mac one month and it seems while I use Skype the screen freezes and I cant click on anything and everything on the right hand side of the screen shifts to the left and the left to the right with a back block down the centre and sometimes lines running down the screen over all. As it is almost brand new should I be going back to store to get this problem fixed??

    Yes.  You are still under warranty.  Why waste it?

  • I had a brand new Mac book pro one month old and the hard drive died. Right before it died I was down loading pictures off a memory card and now they aren't on my memory card! They are wedding pictures I took for a friend and irreplaceable! Please help!!

    I had a one month old Mac book pro and the hard drive fried! I was down loading a friends wedding pictures when it stopped working and started heating up. I plugged it in and turned it off as it was making a clicking noise. When I turned it back on the was a grey box with a question mark and nothing else. When I took my memory card out the pictures were gone. I took it back to best buy where I bought it and they said it was dead, needed a new hard drive and all my info is lost! Is there any way to get back those irreplaceable wedding pictures?

    There are some data recovery programs (software). I would look into that for the images on the card. When files are deleted, the files are still there, just the headers are removed. That being said, a format of the card or new files written to the card can overwrite deleted files.
    The physical hard drive could be thousands of dollars to forensically save, with no guarantee.

  • How do I copy and paste an image form the internet to Keynote. I have done this successfully in the past by selecting copy and then paste by using the right click function and now am unable to do so. I am thinking it is an outdate OS problem...not sure.

    How do I copy and paste an image from the internet to Keynote. I have done so successfully in the paste by using the copy and paste right click functions but am unable to do so now. That was about a year ago that I attempted that I was able to do this. Thank you for your help.

    Some images are copy-protected.
    If all else fails, you can make a screen shot of the image: 
    With the image visible in your browser, press CMD-Shift-4 and your cursor will change to crosshairs.
    Position the cross hairs at one of the corners of what you want to copy and drag to the opposite corner, then release the mouse. An copy of the image will be saved to your desktop.
    You can now edit and use this image.

    But when right click and reload then it applets works well I can see right formatted text area and 3 button at the bottom.

    Thanks for your reply. Yup it solves temporavarily like clicking the reload. Once again I open the applet page it is the same case. Again I need to do the zoom->reset.
    It is not solving purpose 100%.
    I wanted to know what is the reason behind the problem

  • "Referenced" Table Cells not copying formatting of the source table

    Hi-
    I have one sheet that has a rental inventory table that is quite large.  On another page, I have a "printable" version that has filtering applied to hide certain columns.
    What I did orginally was duplicate the table on the inventory page, cut it, then go to my printable sheet, and paste it.  I now have a duplicate version of the original.  Then I go and select all cells, hit delete and all the contents disappear leaving me with the correct formating.
    At this point I can type in cells and see that the formating is intact (certain cells are in Bold for example).
    I delete the test contents, then reference the first cell (a1) to the source table, then copy the references across that entire printable table.  Once I've done that, all of the contents of the source table now appear in the "printable" table. 
    The problem is, that once I reference the source table, the formatting goes away.  The data shows up correctly:  ie, =Equip List :: B2, but the specific cell formating is gone.
    What am i doing wrong here?
    Thanks
    Matt

    "I delete the test contents, then reference the first cell (a1) to the source table, then copy the references across that entire printable table."
    If you do this by selecting and Copying the first cell containing the formula, that "copy" includes the formatting of the copied cell. If you then Paste, the Paste includes that format setting. You could try Edit > Paste and Match format.
    If that doesn't work, you could try this:
    Enter, then fill the formula as you've done, then set the format of each cell or group of cells to include the attributes you want at that location.
