Delete the data in several rows without deleting formulas?

Hello, Is there a clever way to delete data on several rows at a time without also deleting the formulas or formatting in the columns?

As far as I can tell, "data," "values," and "numbers" are all the same thing, and formulas act upon the data as necessary. I have several columns of data, then a column that figures a percentage, in currency, of the previous column. The totals for all the numbered data is added at the bottom. I found that if I delete the entire row, however, I also delete the formula. I wanted to find out how to do this quick and easy, without deleting the formula. I decided it's easier to delete just the data from the cells previous to the formula column, which leaves the formula intact. Then I must also delete the entries (data) in the rows following the formula.
There are also occasions when I wish to move several rows down, but I found that by doing this, I also delete the formula, and it must be re-entered manually. I just wish there was a way to keep the formula intact, but apparently the only way to do that is to delete only the columns that do not contain a formula.
Perhaps it's that I'm not familiar with spreadsheets. I've used Filemaker Pro for several years, and find it more user-friendly than Numbers.
Thanks for your suggestion.

    bought a new macbook air because my old computer is formatted. I want to sync my iphone to my new mac, so I can save the data on my iphone without losing data. how can I do?

    You need to copy everything form your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  it simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.

  • Alternative way to fetch the data into single row.

    we have a query
    SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM USER_TAB_COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME='XXX';
    This query will return the data in multiple rows.
    May know the alternative way to retrieve all the multiple rows in **single row with each row as a seperate column**.

  • How to manipulate data in multiple rows without using cursor??

    Hi all,
    I have a form in which there is a push button & 4 text fields.
    Push button : Process
    Text fields: Year, Month, Financial_To_Year, Financial_From_Date.
    In database , there are tables like, CUSTOMER_MASTER, FD_ACCOUNT_MASTER, FD_ACCOUNT_DTL, CUSTOMER_YEARLY_INTEREST, etc.
    In table FD_ACCOUNT_MASTER, there are columns, like CUST_CODE, FD_ACCT_NO, FD_AMOUNT, ACCT_OPEN_DT, ACCT_CLOSE_DATE, ACCT_TYPE, INTEREST_RATE, etc.
    There are thousands of records in the table.
    For Push button : Process , TRIGGER: When button pressed,
    I have to do all the process of FD for all the FD_ACCOUNTS at once. Process means i have to calculate Interest for all the accounts, calculate interest monthly, quarterly, yearly and make the FD_Accounts disable after the date of ACCT_CLOSE_DATE is reached, make the accounts renewed , etc all the process.
    But to do this process for multiple rows at once, we use cursor, but i don't want to use cursor as i feel its too tedious to do.
    Is there any other way , where i do process of multiple records at once without using cursor??
    Help me, Thank You.

    An Update statement certainly can update sets of data instead single row updates:

    if you can't do it in a single statement you can use bulk processing as well:

  • Saving the data on Add Row

    Hi All,
    I am creating a tabular form with ADD ROW button. And also we have a Mutli Row update process. We are using a trigger on the table
    Now the issue is that when we click ADD ROW button then at that time this Multi Row Update process also get fires and it gives a error something like "Cannot update. error in trigger". To avoid this we puts a condition "When expression 1 item is not null" and there is no item in Expression 1.
    It works fine and adds a new row. But when we are adding some values and once again clicking Add Row button then it simply adds a new row without saving the previous values.
    Please help me.
    Thanks
    Aryan

    Ok. It could be that the form was not enabled for Reader users to be able to save the Data. That is a special function that has to be done using Adobe Acrobat.
    The good news is, you don't need for it to be enabled if you are using the newest version of Adobe Reader so, either have the creator of the form enable it using Acrobat or download Reader XI.

  • I need to move the data from several cells in an excel spreadsheet to another computer's excel spreadsheet.

    I have a data aquisition program on computer #1(not labview)  that writes to an excel spread sheet and I would like to have a row of data transfered to another excel spreadsheet running labview(computer #2)on the same network. I would like to make this transfer of data either over the network or some other method to link these two computers (they are two feet apart). I'm not sure that datasocket would help , as it seems that the data to be moved must be written for datasocket in labview.  My other alternative is to write drivers for the device that provides the data for computer #1. This is a new one for me as the user doesn't want to give up the non-labview program on #1.

  • Copying the data into internal table without internal table

    Hello experts.
    i have two internal tables . itab1 without headerline and itab2 with headerline. itab1 has 10 fields and itab2 has 2 fields.

    data: begin of itab2 occurs 0,
    lifnr like j_1imovend-lifnr,
    j_1ipanno like j_1imovend-j_1ipanno,
    end of itab2.
    now i want to move the data from itab2-j_1ipanno into itab1-j_1ipanno.
    Both the tables ie itab1 and itab2 has lifnr data in them .
    so in itab2 j_1ipanno has pan number for the lifnr( vendors) so i need to populate this pannumbers in itab1 also by comparing
    the lifnrs in two tables. where ever the lifnr of itab2 is equal to itab1-lifnr then this pannumber should be placed there. 
    so pls tell me how to do that. lifnr in both the tables are the same.
    thanks for all the replies.

  • How can I clear the data from my iphone without powering it on?

    So, in an attempt to avoid a $50 charge at the apple store, I decided to replace my screen myself. I've done this plenty of times before without any incident, but this time, some how the battery terminal on the logic board came off with the battery harness, like the soldering broke off. So, since I'm close to the end of my contract, and want to switch phones and carriers, I'm trying to sell my iphone 4 as is, to help cover the cost of a new phone. The only issue is that now that I can't turn the phone on, I can't clear out the memory before I sell it. is there some way that I can do this without the battery, or having to turn it on?
    Thanks
