Creating a stroke that used in table

Hello,
I'm using Indesign CS4.
I have a table that needs horizontal rules that need to be indented by 2 mm on the left and right hand of the table. There also needs to be a gap of 2 mm in the middle of the table.
I thought I could create a stroke to resolve this problem but I cannot seem to create a stroke that does this.
I tried to use the help but this did not really help me any further.
I want to create a stroke that I can apply to a table row that does the following:
indents 2mm
Draws a rule of 42 mm
indents 2 mm
Draws a rule of 42 mm
indents 2mm
This is what I would to use the stroke to create the horizontal rule highlighted below:
Is there a better way to do this?
Cheers Joe.

In my experience, anchored objects in table cells go haywire when the document is exported as INX and re-opened.
Bob's idea is probably the least bad, I admit, but just for the record, here's how you do it "when you use the application properly":

  • Error while creating a report that uses Oracle OCI JDBC connectivity

    Please let me know why my CR and LF characters are removed from my forum posting *****
    Hi,
    I was trying to create a report that uses Oracle OCI JDBC connectivity. I am using Eclipse3.4 download from "cr4e-all-in-one-win_2.0.2.zip".  I have successfully created a JDBC OCI connection.
    The connection parameters are given below:
    URL: jdbc:oracle:oci8:@xe
    Database: xe
    username: <userName>
    password: <password>
    I have tested the above connection in Data source Explorer and it works fine!!!
    But I am getting the following error when I drag-and-drop a table from the list of tables. Not sure what I am missing here?  Any help is highly appreciated.

    Hi Ted,
    Thanks for the feedback. I was able to create a report in Creystal Reports Designer 2008 using OCI.  It is not allowing only in the Eclipse plugin. In our environment we are not allowed to user Oracle thin connections and ONLY OCI is allowed.
    1) Can you please let me know if there is a way to do this? 
    2) Will it allow data sources using native database driver?
    3) If so, can I use JRC to create these reports from a desktop java program?
    Thanks & Regards

  • How/can I use boe search 4 all reports that use specific tables

    How/can I use boe search 4 all reports that use specific tables
    can this be done with query builder
    or
    is there a way to search all sql of all reports for specific strings and report names so that I can find all report sql that uses table1  for example?

    Hi Bart!
    You can use VBScript to extract the dataprovider within the reports (Search for SDK Desktop Intelligence).
    If you can wait a few days longer, I can provide my script.

  • How can I identify reports that use specific tables

    Hi, is there a way that I can identify the reports that select from specific tables?  We have 3,000 reports in business object enterprise XI R2 SP5. and we're trying to identify all the reports that use a specific table.

    Or if you have a developer in Java or .NET available you can write one. Fairly simple to get the info.
    In .NET you would open each report, write the name of the report to a log file with the output of the SQL Statement:
    Using RAS as the report engine.
                GroupPath gp = new GroupPath();
                string tmp = String.Empty;
                rptClientDoc.RowsetController.GetSQLStatement(gp, out tmp);
                MessageBox.Show(tmp, "Data Source Set and SQL Statement", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
    If you want more details is is available with a few more lines of code. The above would only show you what is used in the report.
    I don't believe there is a BOE tool that can do this but they may have one.
    Here's a link to the BOE Admin forum: BI Platform
    Thank you

  • How do I create a treepanel that uses a specific path as its root?

    I want to create a treepanel which uses a specific path in my /content directory (eg. /content/a/b/c) as it's root node.
    If I'm working in CRXDE, how would I set that up?
    So far, I created a tab with a tree panel with attributes:
    root: /content/a/b/c
    xtype: treepanel
    This gets me a treepanel with the root node, but it does not open.  When I click on the "+" beside it, it only spins.  What am I missing in order to set this up?

  • How can we create an entity object using multiple tables?

    Hi All,
    I'm a newbie to OAF.
    I'm trying to create a simple page using OAF.
    While creating Entity object, there is an option to add the database objects from which we can create our Entity Object.
    There we can enter only one database object.
    If suppose I need to create a Entity object by using mutiple data base objects, how can I add other database objects?
    Is there any option for multiple selection of database objects there?
    Thanks in Advance

    User,
    a). You should use the [url http://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=210]OA Framework Forum for this question.
    b). Entity objects always correspond to a single table. I think you want to create a View object instead.
    c). Really, you want to be using the OA Framework forum.

  • How can I create an action that uses "Find and replace"?

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to create an action that will use "Find and replace" to change certain words and phrases in my .psd-files. These are words and phrases I change a lot (I'm translating emails and website banners) and I would like to speed up that process using actions.
    When I tried to create the action I got the error message "The object "in contents of all text layers" is not currently available".
    Then I tried "insert menu items" and chose "Find and replace" and then did my change, but then it stopped when the FAR-window popped up. That's what I want to skip, so it just changes my words and phrases that I want.
    Is this possible?
    Best,
    Carl

    Anyway, in the Script in that other thread the function replaceText takes two Strings, so something like
    function main () {
    var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
    replaceText ("replace this", "with this")
    would be a possibility.

  • Creating a form that populates multiple tables

    Hi,
    I need to create a registration form which inserts data into multiple tables (USERS (master-table), PHONES, ADDRESSES, EMAILS, etc) at once. I've been looking through the docs and the only way I've found yet is to build the form on a procedure. Other methods have restriction on using maximum of 2 tables.
    What is the best approach for building a form on multiple tables in htmldb?

    Either do it on a procedure, or simply write the insert in Process yourself:declare
      l_new_deptno number;
    begin
      insert into dept(dname)vales(:P1_DNAME) returning deptno into l_new_deptno;
      insert into emp(ename,sal,deptno)
      values (:P1_NAME,:P1_SALARY,l_new_deptno);
    end;Thanks,

    After that I must return the id chosen from either
    TABLE_2, TABLE_3 or TABLE_4 in the right column
    of TABLE_1.
    Is it possible?
    If yes, how could I do it?
    If no, do you know a way I could do something like that?
    Thanks!
    Martin

    you might add a variable to the view, so you know where the records are coming from :
    create view v_234  as
       select id, text, 'TABLE2' zfrom from table2
       union all
       select id, text, 'TABLE3' zfrom from table3
       union all
       select id, text, 'TABLE4' zfrom from table4

    Hi Carl-Marius,
    If you look in CUCM Admin there is an area called Voicemail Profile. This area allows you to configure a Profile that points to a specific DN/Voicemail Box. When you apply this Profile to any other DN's any call that forwards to the Voicemail System from these DN's will be directed to the specified Voicemail. The Forward can be via CFWDALL,CFNoAnswer or CFBusy as long as it gets to the VM Pilot#. Unity will match the profile and route the call to the proper mailbox.
    For example: you want all calls that go to DN's 3333,3444 and 3555 to go to the Admin mailbox. This "Admin" mailbox is on DN 3700.
    You would create a Profile in CCM called "Admin Info" which points to DN 3700. Apply this profile to 3333,3444 and 3555 and when calls route through these numbers to voicemail they will recieve the Sales Info 3700 Greeting etc.
    This "new" profile will then be applied to the phones that you want to be able to forward to this Admin number (Under>Device>Phone>Directory Number>Voicemail Profile)
    **You can also use Alternate extensions as you nicely noted but the only drawback is that there can be a Max of 9 Alt.Extensions. Sometimes we need more than that.
    Hope this makes sense!

  • How do I create a variable that uses Previous() and references itself.

    I am trying to create a crosstab with a number of meaures in it. I have a variable called opening stock and another called closing stock. The opening stock for day 2 is the closing stock for day 1 and is a variable [LV Opening Stock] defined as =Previous([closing stock];Row).  This works fine. But, the closing stock for day 2 is the opening stock plus production minus sales. So my variable has to reference the previous days closing stock.
    When it is defined as =[LV Opening Stock]+[Planned Production Qty]-[Forecast Daily Qty] it validates but when I try to save it I get the following message :  The formula for variable [LV Opening Stock] contains a reference to a variable with the same short name. You must use the fully-qualified variable name in the formula to remove this ambiguity. (Error: WIS 10040)
    How do I solve this? What is the fully-qualified name? Is it because it's effectively referencing itself?
    I'm using XI R2 sp4

  • Is it possible to create a workflow that exports PDF tables to Excel?

    Afternoon all,
    I've seen that it's possible to export tabulated information within a PDF document to Excel (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdf-to-excel-xlsx-converter.html) but this is a very manual process.
    I'm wondering if it's possible to create an automated set of steps that I can point to a directory of PDF files, which'll run through the files and export thier contents to Excel.  PhotoShop has something similar in its image resizing actions.  This'll save me a lot of manual time going forward, so any help would be appreciated.

  • How do you create a chart that resizes as table of data resizes

    I have a table which has a variable number of constituents (for the x axis). I have a variable field that determines a matched look up from a much larger database and this populates a table which in turn feeds my chart. Only problem is at the moment the chart has to read data from a v large set of data to capture any eventuality - in this case the graph often has a large gap to the right when data isn't in the table.
    Excel can get around this. Can Numbers?
    Thanks.

    You can filter your table so non-blank rows are hidden. The chart will then not include those rows.
