Creating "the token representing the cell range"?

Reference: http://help.apple.com/numbers/mac/3.2/#/tan727173a8, "Preserve row or column addresses in formulas".
"Click the triangle on the token representing the cell range you want to preserve.
" - end of quote.
Where in this help manual can I find where to call a cell range "Number of Guests"?
All the other token references are about cell formats.

Mel,
select the range of cells:
The range "token" is the blue, rounded, highlighted text "C2:C10". The triangle you should click is just to the right of this text.

Variable Cell Range

How do I use variables to define a cell range?
I have a series of data elements that are organized by date. I need to find a list of dates when specific events have occurred (each event is marked by a flag value of 1). I'm using VLOOKUP to find the first date when the event occurs. For the next date I need to adjust the cell range I'm searching so that it won't pick up the first occurence of the flag value (1).
Example:
1st query =VLOOKUP(1,G3..G223,51,0)
The first query returns a date that is in row 12. I now need to make the second query look for rows 13 through 223.
Overall I need to create over 500 such queries (50 columns of data and 10 events in each row), so typing in each query individually is not an appealing option.
Thanks!

Hi Dad,
I'm having some trouble with your description of the data table. If I read it correctly, the cells in column G contain either a 1 or are empty (or contain a zero). If this is correct, and you are using column G to hold the compare range, then, as the VLOOKUP description in AppleWorks Help states, "If the values in the compare range are not in strict ascending or descending order, or the compare range does not contain an inclusive range from the highest to lowest possible value, the results can be unpredictable." It's very difficult to place the values 0 and 1 into 221 individual cells in "strict ascending order."
VLOOKUP(v,cr,os,m) looks for a specific value (v) in a strictly ordered list of values (cr), and when that value is found*, returns the value in the cell that is in the same row and offset a specific number of columns (os) to the right.
*The method of comparison (m) determines whether an exact match is necessary or if the comparison can be <=v or >=v.
•From the Compare range in your formula, your table has 221 rows (3 through 223). My assumption is that you are recording data for 221 specific dates.
•From the offset value in the formula (51) the table has 52 columns—a compare range column, a result column, and 50 others between them.
•From your formula, it appears that only one column of the chart is being used as a compare range for a particular search (event?).
•You state you have 50 columns of data and that there are 10 events in each row (of 52? cells).
From the last statement, I infer that there are 50 distinct possible events (one for each column), and that 10 of these 50 events occur on each date. Is that correct?
If I understand the description, then my impression is that VLOOKUP is not an effective tool for this job.
Instead, I would suggest a larger table and a set of formulas which will construct a list of the dates on which each event occurs. (Note that the maximum length of a formula, and the maximum length of data for a single cell are both 255 characters. This may necessitate some adjustment to the formulas if one event occurs a great number of times.)
The larger table will consist of two (or three) sections:
•a data entry section much like my understanding of your current table. One column will contain a list of dates. Fifty other columns will each represent a single type of event. Each cell in that column will contain a 1 if the event occurred on the date listed in that row, or will be empty if the event did not occur on that date. for illustration purposes, the dates will be listed in F3..F223, and the events in columns G..BD, with the occurence of Event 1 reported in G3..G223.
•A calculated section which copies the contents of the data block, substituting the correct date for each occurrence of a 1 in the data. In this block (BF3..DC223), column BF will list the dates on which event 1 occurred, column DC the dates on which event 50 occurred. Row 2 (or Rows 1 and 2) in this secton will repeat the headers in the data entry section.
Formulas:
BF1: =G1
Fill this formula Down and Right to DC2
BF3: =IF(G3=1,=DATETOTEXT($F3),"")
Fill this formula Down and Right to DC223
Collecting the dates:
Open a new Word Processor document.
For EACH event, switch back to the spreadsheet document, select the full column containing the dates for that event (eg. BF1..BF223 for Event 1) and Copy.
Switch to the word processor document and Paste, then press shift-return twice (This enters a visual separation that will not be removed in the next step.)
Save the (temporary) WP document. You will have to name it the first time. After that, just press command-S. (This gives you a fall back if you make—and notice—an error along the way.
Repeat these three steps until you have transfered all 50 columns of data (including the empty cells in each column) into a single list in the WP document.
Now use Find/Change to remove all of the empty lines in the list.
Press command-F to open the Find/Change dialogue.
Type "\p\p" into Find and "\p" into Change (both without the quotes).
Repeat the next three steps until AppleWorks reports "0" occurences were changed.
Click Change All.
Click OK to acknowledge the warning that this action is irreversible.
Read the number of changes that occurred, then Click OK to close this alert.
You will now have a single column list of each event, followed by the dates on which it occurred. If you want to show this list as a table (in a spreadsheet), Select and copy each section Event and dates it occurred) individually, switch to the spreadsheet, click on the cell where you want that column of dates to begin, and Paste. Repeat.
It may be possible to automate this last part, either through a further section in the spreadsheet, or through the use of an AppleScript to collect and organize the calcualted data.

Barry

How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?

How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?
I currently run OS X 10.10.1
Now i have been trying to work on this for a while now and what i want to do should be simple but its apparently not.
Here is an example of what i want to happen.
I will have 2 tabs: Contact | Sales
Now Contacts will have the list of names and various information about a customer, While Sales will have one drop-down box for each Cell Row that will show the names of the person in tab contacts
for what i am wanting to do i cant use the data format pop-up menu because the list is edited everyday several times a day.
Now how do i do this, Excel can do this so how can numbers do it?

Hi Shegra,
Paste this into a applescript editor window and run it from there. In the script you may need to adjust the four properties to agree with your spreadsheet. Let me know if you have any questions.

How do you create the equivalent of a named range in Numbers for iPad?

At first I didn't think Numbers could handle named ranges but when I look at the formula written for the "Personal Budget Template" The "Actuals" column is calculating using named ranges but I am not sure how the ranges were created... In any case it does appear that there is a way. Does anyone know how?

Those technically are not named ranges. Its using the information in the "header" rows. Once you make a row a header row and sum it (or include the whole colun in some function). It will use the data/name in the header row in the equation to make it clearer. I do not think you can make named ranges in Numbers.
I made a test excel workbook using two formulas to sum a range, one with named ranges one without and sent to my ipad, when i opened it up...and downloading... yep... it converted the named range to a regular range with letters and numbers. no named ranges support.
But learn to use your header and footer rows to get the same affect in many functions.
When i assign both header rows and columns to a table, it combines them into one string to show "Jan 2001" when I had a header column with Jan in A2, and a header row with "2001" in B1, then used the value in an equation.
The one your looking at I think says something like "=Sum(actuals)". that formula is in a designated footer row, and has a designated header row. at the top of that column is the label "actual". if you look at the difference column formulas, you will see how it combined header rows and columns into a single text string and use it to cross reference the cell being used.

IOS5.0.1 constant error "iPhone can not make or receive calls. Restore from iTunes": I get this message and the phone will no longer work (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range). help!

All- I get this message ("iPhone can not make or receive calls. Restore from iTunes" (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range)). iPhone 4. Newest OS. Never happened with old OS! Cycling phone on/off does not help. Ignoring message causes phone to cycle off then on. After first time this happened, I restored. Six days later...same problem! Clearly a new fix is necessary. Suggestions?

I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc). Any suggestions? What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

How to create a new cell attribute and add adorner to the cell

Hi
I am relatively new to InDesign and wanted to do the following
I want to add a new boolean attribute to a selected table cell. When this attribute is set, I would want to draw one line vertical and one line across the selected cell ( kind of like a "Plus" sign over the cell). I am wondering how to go about doing this.
PS: I read the snippet snpManipulateTableStyle and can see how to change a cell style using existing attribute (kcellAttrFillColorBoss). However in my case, i want to create a entirely new boolean attribute and based on it being true or false, I would want to draw the adornment on the cell
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated..
thanks!

I would create the new site first, then promote the new domain controllers and add them to the site. You can do this during the dc promote process.
There's step by step guides already available for creating a site so I don't see any point reinventing one.
Here's one:
http://www.petri.co.il/create-active-directory-sites-windows-server.htm
You may have to adjust the site links part since it looks like Site 3 will only be linked to Site 1.
Of course, the IP addresses for the domain controllers in Site 3 have to be in the IP subnet configured for that site.
Using the example above, you'll of course have to enter the information that makes sense for your netwrok.
I doubt anyone will create a custom step by step for you using the information you provided (they'd also have to know your subnets for one thing) but then, who knows.
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you.

How do you change/adjust border width for all the cells in a table created in Pages?

How do you change/adjust border width for all the cells in a table created in Pages?
Note- I am trying to figure out how to create and format tables in the latest version of the Pages app on an iPad air (iOS 8.1.1.1) . Creating tables, adding or removing borders for individual/all cells in a table seems straight forward. However the default border style seems to be a heavy black line. How do I change this?
I found the option add or remove borders for all/ individual cells in a table, however I can't find any option within style/format dialogue screens for changing colour or line thickness for table cells. Likewise I can't find any clear instructions on how to do this in apple help pages or support website
Btw- I'm assuming it is possible to customize/adjust the colour & thickness of selected lines in a table created in this app (it's fairly easy to do this word processing apps like MS Word) please let me know if this is not actually possible in Pages

Set the name of cell or cells' range for a report and when export it to excel the names will be defined.

Hello,
I have an C# application that exports report from Reporting Services to Excel files.
I would like to know if there is a possibility to set the name of the cell or range of cells in the report (via Report Builder or somewhere else) and when open the Excel the names are set. Similar functinality when you open the Excel and go Formulas/Define
Name and set the name for a unique cell or range.
Regards,

Hi there,
I don't believe this is possible in Reporting Services. One workaround, if you don't know the exact range at runtime, might be to put hidden characters (white?) in your sheet at start and end of range, then do some postprocessing on the file using
VSTO or perhaps a 3rd-party tool like this one.
http://www.aspose.com/reporting-services/excel-component.aspx
If you do know the range it should be much easier.
cheers,

Is there a way to hide the account ranges when creating a web-adi for budgets?

Hi,
I'm trying to create budgets for an end-user. The user doesn't want to see all account ranges defined for that budget organization and would like to populate them on his own. I can hide the account ranges in the document creation page but not in the web-adi excel file. Is there a way to do hide the account combinations from being displayed in the excel file?

you'd have to disable javascript - but this won't be a very practical solution since many sites are broken without it. you can use an extension like [https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/noscript/ noscript] & do a whitelist approach - disable js by default and only allow it on sites that you trust/need.
here's some more stuff that websites can find out about you: [http://browserspy.dk]

When creating a photo book how do I know what size the cells are?

I'm having a hard time getting my photos to fit appropriately in the cells. Regardless of the size of the image I almost always get an exclamation point warning.

An "exclamation point warning" indicates that your print resolution (pixels per inch) may not be sufficient to print in the book at "best quality", it does not indicate "fit"..
Work with your full-size images. Do not resize your images by exporting. Do not crop- the same can be achieved in the Book module.You can zoom in on the book page image to effectively crop. You can make images "Fit" or "Fill" any size image cell.

Manipulating the cell size in an Excel spreadsheet

Problem 1 of 2 (2 is in the same project but a different function so will place in separate post)
Using LV 2013 on Windows 7 with Excel 2010
I have a routine where I insert assorted data into an Excel spreadsheet based on a pre-formatted Excel template. Problem is, when one group of data is placed in the range of cells (ends up being a column because of the way the data array is formatted) that particular column width is reduced.
Because once of the cells automatically formats as the Excel Date / Time format (as desired) the narrower width of the cell makes the value unreadable. (Just like when a real numerical value is longer than the cell is wide, all you see is hash marks)
I verified my column width in the template is where it should be, it definitely is reduced when the data is entered. I also tried using the “Excel Set Cell Dimension.vi” to change the cell width back to what I need but it does not work. Not sure why. When I tried placing the function at the beginning of the routine, I think it created an error and the rest of the report/excel functions failed to work. I didn’t monitor the error wire to confirm this.
My next approach will be to write a macro in the template file and call this at the end to fix the cell width but this seems like the long way around.
Any thoughts on the best way to fix this? Or why the “Excel Set Cell Dimension” function does not work?
Thanks…..

Am using report toolkit. Have not looked inside the vi(s) but will do so to see if I can pull out some functions that I can manipuate to work my issue.
Will report back when I figure something out. Probably next monday, off work tomorrow, Whoo Hoo

Creating a pop-down using a range of cells (Like Excel LIST feature)

Can this be done in numbers. Instead of typing the data into a pop-up list to be pasted in an ongoing long spreadsheet, I was wondering if Numbers supports a similiar feature to Excel's MANAGE LISTS which allows the drop down to be locked to a range of cells instead. I know they are very similar, but wondering?
-Kevin

Kevin,
Presently Drop-Down menu's can't be created from cell ranges in Numbers. It sounds like a good feature, and has been asked about many times here. You can Send Feedback to the Numbers team and tell them what you would like to see in the next version of Numbers. The Feedback link is under the Numbers menu item.

How can I select a radio button in a table regarding the data in the cells?

Hi everyone
This is the issue: I need to select the RadioButton which is in a table with data related to transfers in the cells next to it, so I need to select the correct radio regarding the data next to it.
This is the whole process: First I go to the Add Recurring Transfer section and select the parameters of the transfer (Accounts, date, amount, months etc), then with VB code I capture those parameters from the page and store them into Global variables for further usage on my E-tester script.
Right after that I need to select the radiobutton regarding the data of the transfer that I already created in order to delete it or modify it (Please see Attachment selectradio1.jpg)
So How can I move along the table and compare each cell with the variables that I created with the transfer information, so when I finish comparing a row cell by cell and if all the comparison match well in that row, I could select the radiobutton of the row.
Note: Second Attachment selectradio2.jpg shows the source code of the table...If you need more info please let me know
Could you please help me with this problem?? I'm Kind of frustrated with this issue jejeje

Here is an example. I uploaded mock html so that you can actually try this code. I think this does exactly what you are asking.
Private Sub RSWVBAPage_afterPlay()
Dim tbl As HTMLTable
Dim tblRow As HTMLTableRow
Dim tblCell As HTMLTableCell
Dim strValue As String
Dim rButton As HTMLInputElement
' ******** This would be your global variable. I put this so that values are seperated by a semicolin you can use what ever format works for you.
strValue = "03/22/2008;03/22/2008;*************1977;*************1977;$25.25;Jan, Jun, Jul, Dec"
' Strip out the ; for inner text comparison
strValue = Replace(strValue, ";", "")
' This will get the table but can be modifoed to be more specific
Set tbl = RSWApp.om.FindElement(, "TABLE")
' This loops through all the rows in the table until a match to the strValue is found
' then clicks the radio button. Findelements allows you to specify a root element
' once the correct root row is found, FindElemets can get the correct radio button
For Each tblRow In tbl.rows
  If tblRow.innerText = strValue Then
    Set rButton = RSWApp.om.FindElement("account", "INPUT", "NAME", , , tblRow)
     rButton.click
   End If
Next
End Sub
I also uploaded the script I created. You should be able to run it and see how it works.
This should get you going.
