Deleting Column Break Changes Formatting

When I do a search and replace of a Column break and replace it with a Frame break, the paragraph and character formatting of the line on the next page clear any formatting applied to it.
I'm using CS6
Any ideas on how to do this without effecting the formatting?
Thanks,
Peter

I'm not sure why each frame/card's content won't be controlled properly with the start in new frame/column/page property, rather than needing a break character.
As to imposition issues, there are folks on this forum far more experienced than I am, in strategies for this.

Yes, because the cards are done in a single format, for proofing and viewing and before going to the printer they are put into a file that's setup 100-up. And without the Frame Breaks the cards won't show up in all 100 boxes.
Unless there's a way to take the single cards and imposition them to 100-up in the proper orientation. 100-up Fronts and 100-up Backs.
Thanks!

Problem with column break in word 2010

Hi,
I have a 2 column document. Some how i feel it has inserted a column break in the middle of page 7 of my word document which consists of 12 pages. It is a reviewed document & tracking is also going on and 'Track Changes: On' message is also visible on my
progress bar. On page 7 i have a figure also which is one column wide. The text above this figure goes on to next column after 9th line. There is still a 3 line gap between my text & figure. But its moving the text to next column. After the figure it shows
me the text which should come after the moved text. It was showing me section break continuous but then i deleted it but still the problem persists. Please guide me how to fix this problem.

Hello,
I have replicated and confirmed the problem with LabVIEW 2010, Report Generation Toolkit 2010 and Word 2010. I have filed this to R&D under CAR ID #257414. As a workaround you can manually set each cell using Word Edit Cell.vi. I have attached a simplified representation of this unexpected behavior as well as the workaround. Hopefully this helps everyone out!

Column break in nested matrix

Hi guys,
I created a report of some quality test results containing table with nested matrix for details. I need the
sub-matrix to be grouped by row and by
column and limit the number of result columns in row (to fit the width of report neatly). I went trough the articles about doing column group break already:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/32f28407-e1ca-457e-92fd-d292e32dde4e/limit-no-of-columns-in-ssrs-matrix-report?forum=sqlreportingservices
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/ea9d795b-8d17-41d2-a1d7-a4069ebb4539/forum-faq-how-do-i-achieve-column-break-in-a-matrix?forum=sqlreportingservices (I have used the 2nd workaround)
My solution without the column count limit feature works perfectly. But when trying to break, the report seems to associate the column groups related to another parent table row, because the number of result grouped columns in row is
less or equal to the set number (=4) as follows:
Test type Test
A A1
Parameter A1-1 A1-2 A1-3 A1-4 // OK - break made after 4 columns of A1
Min x x x x
Max y y y y
Measured z z z z
Parameter A1-5 A1-6 // OK - break made after test type A1 (?Bug cause: "column count 2 for now")
Min x x
Max y y
Measured z z
A2
Parameter A2-1 // OK - break made after test type A2 (?Bug cause: "column count 3 for now")
Min x
Max y
Measured z
B B1
Parameter B1-1 // Not OK - break already made after 1st column (?Bug cause: "column count 4 for now:"=>BREAK)
Min x
Max y
Measured z
Parameter B1-2 B1-3 B1-4 // OK - break made after test type B1
Min x x x
Max y y y
Measured z z z
C C1
Parameter C1-1 C1-2 C1-3 C1-4 // OK - break made after 4 columns of C1
Min x x x x
Max y y y y
Measured z z z z
Parameter C1-5 C1-6 // OK - break made after test type C1
Min x x
Max y y
Measured z z
I have modified the proposed function script for my purposes - set the reset of ID counter in the header of parent row test, set the column ID as concatenation of all level values (test type, test and watched parameter), played with ordering
of data and extra grouping, but with no success.
Does anybody have a suggestion what is going on and how to solve this issue?
Thanks,
Marion
PS: I'm sorry for the table illustration (done the best that I could). As a newbie I'm not allowed to post with picture.
Edit: Do you need some extra information to help? Does somebody have an idea how to achieve the same design with column break some other way?

Hi,
The column break needs to reset when it starts a new row grouping. The customer code therefore needs parameters for the row grouping and for the column grouping.
The code below is slightly different to a lot of examples.
Creating hashtables would keep a record of every column value, so for large reports, this would use a small but significant amount of memory. It only needs to know when it changes. I've also used static variables as the scope only needs to be
the function and not global, plus this makes it a single module of code which helps on larger projects.
The ceiling calculation has been replaced with some integer maths to prevent odd rounding issues that cause hard to trace/reproduce bugs. E.G. a 4 column should be 4-4-4-4-4 but 16 /4 should be 4 but might be
4.000000000000001. Ceilling then returns 5 so you end up with a column jumping to the next line :- 4-3-5-4-4.
Note that everything that used to calculate the row grouping should be concatenated as a single parameter for the most robust solution. In the example the sub group is unique for the entire dataset so is not an issue, but if a sub group is only unique
in the group, there is a small change of a miscalculation.
Here's my solution:
In the code
Function GroupFunction(
ByVal NewGroup as string ,
ByVal NewColumn as string ,
ByVal ColumnBreak as Integer ) As Integer
static OldGroup as string = ""
static OldColumn as string = ""
static RecordCount as integer = 0
if (OldGroup <> NewGroup ) then
OldGroup = NewGroup
OldColumn = ""
RecordCount = RecordCount + ( ColumnBreak - RecordCount Mod ColumnBreak )
end if
if (OldColumn <> NewColumn) then
OldColumn = NewColumn
RecordCount = RecordCount +1
end if
GroupFunction =RecordCount +
( ColumnBreak - (RecordCount - 1) Mod ColumnBreak )
End Function
In the report
= Code.GroupFunction( Fields!MainGroup.Value & ":" & Fields!SubGroup.Value , Fields!Parameter.Value , 4 )
If you want a different number of columns, you can change the 4 to a report parameter.

Column in DATE format

Hello Everybody
I have a report did Apex, this report has a column which data type is DATE but by default the Apex put it in the format : DD-MM-YYYY HH:MI:SS
But I only want that his column has the format DD/MM/YYYY
I know that is posible convert this field using the function TO_CHAR(date, format) but in the report I want to sort this field considering that this filed is in date data type not in char.
Also I know that I can use the function EXTRACT for concatening the day, month and year and after convert to date in the format 'dd/mm/yyyy'; but I don´t want to write many code.
I don't want to do some like this:
TO_DATE(
EXTRACT( 'DAY' FROM DateFiled )||'/'|| EXTRACT( 'MONTH' FROM DateFiled )||'/'|| EXTRACT( 'YEAR' FROM DateFiled ), 'DD/MM/YYYY' )
Do you know how to convert to this date format (DD/MM/YYYY) preserving the format?
I expect your prompt reply.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Best Regards

Hi Eric
One of the really cool features of the later versions of APEX is the ability to set a default "Application Date Format".
This is done in the Application xx>Shared Components>Definition then select the "Globalization" tab.
You can select from a list of pre-defined date formats, or enter your own.
My preference is "DD-Mon-YYYY" which is not in the list.
Just leave your date fields as regular DATE type in the select (no formatting in the select).
This Application Date Format is then used as the default for ALL dates for which you don't specifically set (another) date format
This is also selecable in the Display options of a "Date Picker (Use Application Date Format)" LOV - for any date page items that you want to provide a date picker.
This really simplifies the effort in getting a consistent look and feel - and keeping a constant standard throughout the application.
The other benefit is that you can make a change in one place, and ALL the dates (without a specific date format specification) will change format - just like that.
This is just one of the features that makes APEX the most productive - and cool - systems around.
Enjoy!
Mike

Delete column in database

Hi All,
Ca anybody Explain me how to delete the perticular entire column in a table.
Regards,
Srinath

Do you want to delete a column, or change the value of a field (column name) of all records to nothing (NULL).
If you want to clear/change to NULL then you can use an UPDATE statement, but this is not something that you 'just play around with'
Spoiler (Highlight to read)
UPDATE table_name SET column_name = NULL
UPDATE table_name SET column_name = NULL
Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T
If you don't hate time zones, you're not a real programmer.

Services deleting layout breaks

First off, Pages does not show services in the contextual menu as advertised for Snow Leopard. The services show up in TextEdit when text is selected, but not in Pages. (Except for a few that must be connected by some different mechanism, as they don't show in TextEdit but do show in Pages.) Baffling.
Secondly, when I use a text service via the Pages > Services route, if the text I have selected includes a layout or page break, the breaks are deleted. If the service involves any kind of text substitution, even if it's just "smarten quotes", it will delete all breaks. I have tried both TextSoap and WordServices with same result.
I can work around this by selecting only the text between breaks to run services on, but that means making dozens of manual selections in a document instead of CMD-A, AND I have to go to the Pages > Services menu every time instead of using a right-click popup. Tedious. (Yes, I could assign keyboard shortcuts, but I would never remember them.)
I guess this is feedback, not a question, since I don't really expect anyone knows how to make Pages play nicely with Services. If anybody else is frustrated with this problem, feel free to chime in.

Snow Leopard changed the behavior of Services.
Only those which you choose to display are displayed.
The choice is made from the menu
Services > Services preferences.
I installed some components of WordServices.
This new scheme is really interesting which allow us to work with a Services menu with a reasonable number of items.
As far as I know, Services where never reachable thru ctrl-click (aka right-click).
_Go to "Provide Pages Feedback" in the "Pages" menu_, describe what you wish.
Then, cross your fingers, and wait _at least_ for iWork'10

Press enter puts column break instead of line break in

does anyone know why pressing enter puts column break instead of line break in - I loaded InDesign on my Windows 8 notebook?

Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts... and make a new set.
Change the Product Area dropdown to Type and Tables, then scroll down the list to Insert Break Character: Paragraph Break and then put your cursor in the new shortcut box. Press the Enter key on the numpad and change the context to Text. You'll get a warning that the shortcut is already assigned below the shortcut field, but just click the assign button.
If you want a new shortcut for the column break, scroll back up to that one, then type in a new shortcut. You can use the ctrl, alt and shift modifier keys if you like, along with anything other than a key on the numpad.

Column break

Is there such a thing as a column break in Illustrator
ie: To force the text to the top of the next column
Steve

Lou your were joking but that has been the stumbling block in getting this very simply feature into Illustrator. There are some very intelligent
and knowledgeable users of Illustrator here on the forum who have argued against using resources for this because they just make another text box,
align them and then group them and they don't seem to think you even need columns when you can do this?
How would hitting the enter key to move to the next column save time, is their thinking and some of them did not think multiple artboards were useful.
of I agree with you fully except for the multiple page thing, I do not really think a multiple page feature is what Illustrator needs the artboards are much better for Illustrator since they can vary in dimensions from one art board to the next have have artboards within artboards and be exported via printing to pdf with a range of artboards. That is more powerful in some ways then just pages.
There is however a future for output as pages and spreads which would be good especially if it could be both for Acrobat and InDesign formats. That could be cool..
What do you think?

Databound Drop Down List combine two or more column with customize format

Hi all
I am writing a project have Databound Drop Down List like example in http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/mills/databound_lists.html, but my Databound Drop Down List combine 2 column with format "Name | DepartName" or something like that. I mean how can I change format when I combine two or more column display value in drop down (default is space between columns, ex: "Name DepartName")

You could add a transient (calculated) attribute to your view object and use this one in your list binding.

Retain field order on form when adding/deleting columns

If I move my html around to change the layout of the fields on an AddForm.aspx and then I start adding and deleting columns, the ordering of the ff## changes and I can have problems.
Its fine if I've only added new columns...what I've done is create an AddForm1.aspx to get the fresh ff##'s at the end of the list. I copy them over to my AddForm.aspx
If I add and delete columns, then I can have problems.
The ff## may be renumbered when making an AddForm1.aspx and copying the new fields might create an error because of dupe ff##'s.
If I use AddForm1.aspx, I lose my layout of the fields on my form AddForm.aspx.
I have been successful finding the ordering of the columns on AddForm1 and renumbering on AddForm.
But this is pain and error-prone.
What do people do to get around this dilema?
thx
Rich

Hi,
By default, we can change the order at the Lists content type settings page.
I suggest you provide more information about your requirement(screenshot) to make others easier to find a solution for you.

Delete column in csv

Does anyone know how to delete one column or change values in that column and leave the rest in a csv file??
Example:
CSV file has 40 columns and 70 rows. To delete a column or change it's values.
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

One thing to also consider if the CSV file is realllllllllly long, you could just create a new secondary/temporary file named "originalfilename_temporary.csv". (Or whatever you please). Then you could loop through and read the original file line-by-line and each iteration crop out the column you don't want and write it to the new file. Then when you are completely done looping, simply delete the original file (assuming you don't want to keep it), and rename the new/temporary file with the original file name. This will save a lot of memory.
Note1: This will save much memory during execution at the expense of temporarily using a maximum of twice as much disk space. If your disk space AND memory are limited, then you will need a more complex algorithm likely involving file pointers and other annoying things.
Note2: This will only be necessary for super huge csv files. But I've had some datalogs for 72+ hours and they would often overflow my memory if I tried to manipulate them file at a time.

Job nfs-server.service/start deleted to break ordering cycle [SOLVED]

I have the following entries in my journal:
Found ordering cycle on rpc-statd-notify.service/start
Found dependency on nfs-server.service/start
Found dependency on rpc-gssd.service/start
Found dependency on nfs-client.target/start
Found dependency on rpc-statd-notify.service/start
Breaking ordering cycle by deleting job nfs-server.service/start
Job nfs-server.service/start deleted to break ordering cycle starting with rpc-statd-notify.service/start
and nfs-server does not start. So it would seem that the nfs services are starting in the wrong order. Could some kind person explain why and tell me how to fix this?
Apart from following the arch wiki for nfs I don't believe that I have changed anything.
Thanks

Default Style Column Breaking in an Interactive report

In a normal SQL report there are two types of column break formatting:
1) Default Breaking Format e.g.
aaa 123
456
bbb 789
123
2) Repeat Headings e.g.
aaa
123
456
bbb
789
123
Interactive reports seem to only implement Repeat Headings . Is it possible to break columns in an IR report using "Default Breaking Format"? If so how?
thanks

Is it possible to add conditional column formatting in an Interactive Report in Apex 4.1? I've found numerous examples for older versions using the standard (classic) report, but I haven't found any with the new Interactive Report. Is this possible? and if so, can someone point me in the direction of some documentation or examples?
Oracle Application Express (APEX)
As interactive reports lack the HTML Expression feature of standard reports, the simple way to do this unfortunately requires violating the separation of concerns and generating structural (a <tt>span</tt> element) and presentational (an in-line style sheet) aspects in the query:
select
⋮
       , case
           when trunc(calling_date,'DD') = trunc(sysdate,'DD')
           then
             '<span style="color: #3399FF;">' || to_char(calling_date) || '</span>'
           else
             '<span>' || to_char(calling_date) || '</span>'
         end calling_date
⋮For number/date columns to be properly sortable, the leading edge of the column must be an HTML comment that provides the required sort order using character semantics, as shown here.
The Display As column attribute for such columns must be set to Standard Report Column.
This method has side effects: some IR filters won't work; aggregate calculations can't be applied to the column; and report exports contain the HTML rather than the expected value.
Other approaches involve using Dynamic Actions/jQuery/JavaScript, or using the built-in highlight as suggested above, then saving the highlighted report as the default.

Report column breaking - display text centred in cell

Hi,
I am looking for some help achieving the following:
I have a report which has column breaks on the first three columns. Currently, when the report is displayed, the first column value is displayed in the top row with the rows underneath blank and so on for columns 2 and 3. Then the data for the other columns is displayed as normal.
What I want to do is have the column values that are used in the break spanning the rows they break over so the text is displayed centred (vertically)
ie:
Col1     Col2     Col3           Col4     Col5
                                dat1     dat2
                                dat2     dat3
val1     val2     val3          dat4     dat5
                                dat6     dat7
                                dat8     dat9
val2    xx        xxx         xx        xx
________________________________________________ (Hope this works in ascii!!!) - Col1,2,3 etc are the columns - ignore the vals and dats - they're just data placeholders.
All help much appreciated! :)
