Entering a 0 (that's zero) in a cell

Hi,
This is a monumentally simple question but I can't seem to find an answer on the forum here and after trying various format settings in Appleworks I'm still stuck.
All I'm trying to do is enter a list of catalogue numbers into a spreadhseet, some of which start with a 0 (zero) and Appleworks keeps dropping the 0 from the beginning of each number.
I'm sure it's a format issue as if there is anything before the 0 it displays OK.
Many thanks for your help.

Hello
If you want that a zero remains at the first character of a value, you must force AppleWorks to treat it as a string, not a number.
To do that several tracks are available:
enter ="06220"
enter 06220 with a trailing unbreakable space (alt + space)
enter Ø6220 using a slashed 0 which is not viewed as a digit
I'm quite sure that I forget some other tracks but they rely on he same idea

  • I don't want to allow a user to enter a date that is before January 2014

    I don't want to allow a user to enter a date that is before January 2014. I want to restrict users from entering a date that is or prior to December 31, 2013 in a date field. Is this possible?

    Seems like it is a little more complicated just to create a new Date() object in livecycle...
    the way I found to create a new Date() object is using the dateTimeEdit pattern to be 'date{EEEE, MMMM D, YYYY}'
    then u can create a new Date
    var date1 = new Date(DateTimeField1.editValue);
    date1.getTime();
    or
    you can also click the following link and download the pdf from the blog...
    Adobe LiveCycle Designer Cookbooks by BR001: Date handling in Livecycle Designer ES forms
    using XFADate object make it easy to manipulate dates with javascript
    The XFADate object created by BR001 is very good but to be able to see if a date is prior to another date you can just add this function in the object script..
    you can add that function at line 200...
    that.isPriorTo = function(date) {
         var toDate = newDate(date);
         if (isNaN(this) || isNaN(toDate)){
              return false;
         } else{
              var interval = this.getTime() - toDate.getTime();
              if (interval > 0){
                   return false;
              } else{
                   return true;
    To use that function above you can just use this code:
    if (XFADate.newDate(dateFrom).isPriorTo(DateTo)){
         //dateFrom is prior to dateTo
    hope this help

  • You entered an invitee that wasn't recognized by the server

    I am running Mac 10.6.7 and iCal 4.0.4. I have an 2010 Exchange account configured in iCal ,and Mac Mail, it has been running fine for over a year now. Recently i have been getting an iCal which says
    "Calandar entry name" had invitees not recognized by the server.
    You entered an invitee that wasn't recognized by the server
    Fix later                    Edit Event
    If i click Fix Later the error pops up again in a few minutes.
    If i click Edit Event it takes me to a specific week in the past but it doesn't open a calendar entry to be editied
    I have Deleted and re-created the iCal account but i still get the error message
    I have deleted, through an Outlook calendar, the calendar entry with the correct name in the week that i am taken to but i still get the error message
    I get the following error message in Console
    21/04/2011 08:52:38 iCal[708] error = Error Domain=CalExchangeErrorDomain Code=-19 UserInfo=0x10e1900e0 "“Calandar entry name” had invitees not recognized by the server."
    This is getting so irratating that i am considering using  Mac Office Outlook. Can anyone help please.

    I am still having this problem even with Mountain Lion. It gets pretty serious because the consequence is that somehow many copies of the same meeting invitation email is generated and stored on the draft folder of my exchange server. Seems it becomes more of a problem when more than one of my Mac's are online and seems to only happen to events that are created by my delegate. The message pops up the moment I click "close" on the reminder of the event and then this crazy message about invitee not recognized by the server pops up (and drafts of the invitation from myself to myself appears in the draft folder).
    Someone else out there must be experiencing this as well, anyone know of a solution?
    Thanks.

  • I have manually inputted data into a blank spreadsheet and would like to use a form to enter data into that sheet !!! How do I do that please

    I have manually inputted data into a blank spreadsheet and would like to use a form to enter data into that sheet !!! How do I do that please

    Leigh,
    After creating your table, Tap the Tab marked "+" and select "Form" - you will be asked which table to use. (You should get into the habit of naming your tables - if the table name isn't visible, select the table and tap the Styles (Brush) Menu > Table > Turn ON table Name, then double tap on the Table to edit it.)
    Select the table you wish to to fill with a form and you will see a new form based on the header data.
    The form will allow you to add one row at a time and when you get to the last row, there is an option at the bottom of the form to add a new row using the "+" button. At the top of the form is the row header which you can rename by double tapping.
    You can also rename the form on the Tab by double tapping on the name.
    Try it out.

  • Apps in the store that have zero reviews, yet 4.5 million downloads

    "I see many apps in the store that have zero reviews, yet they are top of the list as displayed by Apple.
    One caught my eye as there own website claims 4.5 million unique downloads. Yet the same app has no reviews in the App store?
    What gives? I may not be one to dolots of  reviews but after 4.5 million surely a few people would have bothered to send in a review?
    No link to software as I do not want to be accused of promoting it.
    So whats the point of a review system if you don't publish them?

    That's just great, defend the app by insinuating that the purchasers are stupid.  To answer your question of what else one might need --
    1)  The portion of the title that is first presented to the user should make it clear that the app is not Microsoft Word 2010.
    2)  The icon should not contain the W in the blue box.
    Here, for example, we have a legitimate book on Microsoft Word, namely "Word 2010 for Dummies."  Notice that the images on the cover are totally different from Microsoft's icon.

    I cannot get backup assistant to work on my Cosmos 2. It keeps saying that I entered an invalid pin (but I've been entering the pin that it tells me to enter). I'm in the process of transferring phones.

    JWensley,
    Sorry to hear about the trouble with the PIN! Let's get you past that so you can complete the transfer process. Are you receiving that PIN by pressing the # key as outlined here: http://vz.to/1zINyY8 . Is this the initial backup on the old device?

  • How do I get a 0 to display when a count = 0 (zero)? (The cell is blank)...

    (Running Business Objects Release 2 (Web-I), No other reporting modules)
    How do I get a 0 to display when a count = 0 (zero)? (The cell is blank)...
    In my reports, I count the number of tests of one of our products and another count on the number of failures.  I then use a simple formula to give me the defect rate percentage (DR%)
    The universe objects used in the calculation are:
    Assembly Number (dimension)
    Human Sn (dimension)
    Test Code Description (dimension)
    I created a variable (called [Count Assys]) that counts the number of Assemblies Tested:
    Formula: =Count([Assembly Number];All)
    Another variable (called [Failed Count]) counts the number of failed tests:
    Formula: =Count([Test Code Description];All) Where ([Test Code Description] <> "FUNCTIONAL TESTS PASSED")
    NOTE: There is a "not equal to sign" between [Test Code Description] and "FUNCTIONAL..." above, but the forum is blanking it when I preview the message.  Not a big deal, but it may be important for someone looking to help...
    I then have a third variable called [DR%] that divides [Failed Count] into the number of [Count Assys], which yields a number formatted as a percentage.
    Formula: =[Failed Count]/[Count Assys]
    The above works great! 
    The problem is: when I have a zero defect count (everything passes), the cell is blank, so the percentage variable remains blank.  I want a zero (0) to appear if nothing failed so the percentage appears as 0%
    I've searched this forum completely and have tried several Properties changes and different variable strings (like =If([Failed Count]<1,0) and the cell stays blank and cannot come up with an answer.
    This one seems simple to me, but everything I've tried has yielded zero <smile> results.
    Thanks,
    Charles

    Hi Charles,
    Use [Dr%] Variable formula as =if(IsNull([Dr%]);0;[DR%])
    Here IsNull returns the Boolean value of variable [Dr%] if its true then inserts 0 else the percentage values of failed tests based on the  total number of assembly tests performed.
    I Hope this is what you want to achieve....
    Thanks....

  • Text that spans more than one cell in a JTable

    Hi all.
    I have a JTable where I've altered the renderer so that it looks like I have columns that span more than one cell.
    e.g.: http://i.imgur.com/RSGOh.png
    From that image though you will notice that the text (which is based in a JLabel) is truncated.
    I need this text to span the available cells so was wondering about the best way of doing it.
    I could:
    1) When I know that the text won't fit, don't draw anything at all with the renderer but make a note of it and then in the paintComponent method of the JTable, paint the text in the appropriate position once the rendering has been done.
    2) Provide a custom renderer that draws as much of the text as possible up to the right edge, and then have an adjacent cell renderer paint the rest.
    3) Use a different TableUI that when I know I need to span, uses a special renderer to stamp over the spanned cells...
    4) other methods???
    I was going to attempt choice 1) but thought I'd ask here first in case someone has had experience in this and knows the "correct" way to do it.
    Is this the right way to go about it?
    Thanks, Nick.

  • Put Together a Formula that Looks at 3 Different Cells

    Hi,
    I’m trying to put together a formula that looks at 3 different cells, and returns the cell that has data in it, and block from putting data in the other selection.
     IF ANY INFORMATION IS COMBINED IN CELL B2,B7,B9. an error will show
    If B18 = 90 PUT 100% IN CELL b1, IF B25 = 40 PUT 100% IN CELL b1, IF B33 = 20 PUT 100% IN CELL b1, 0
    Please see the attachment for more detailed information, please also look at both tabs to help understand

    Hi,
    My understanding is that there are three conditions : if B18 = 90, if B25 = 40, if B33 = 20, if one of them is true, B1 will display "100%". If none of them is true, B1 will display "error". Am I right? If yes, please try this
    formula and put it in B1:
    =IF(OR(B18=90,B25=40,B33=20),100%,"error")
    If I misunderstood something, please let me know.

  • I am using Iphone 3 GS since last 4 months. I have note registered it under Icloud and unfortunately i have lost my cel 2 days before. Can someone help me / tell me the ways that i can get my cel back or trace it..?

    I am using Iphone 3 GS since last 4 months. I have note registered it under Icloud and unfortunately i have lost my cel 2 days before. Can someone help me / tell me the ways that i can get my cel back or trace it..?

    No way to trace it if you didn't active Find my Phone on your iPhone before you lost it.
    Notify your carrier and your police of the loss.  Chances are you will never get your phone back.

  • Is there a way to backup the iphone without entering a passcode that was previously set?

    I have a passcode on my iphone, which I recently dropped. Both the front and back screens are cracked severely. I can see when someone txts / calls, so the phone appears to be working, however it is not usable. I cannot access anything on the phone using the touch screen. The screen continues to shake as if there are multiple fingers trying to operate it at once.
    Although it would be nice to get back into the phone, I would prefer being able to back it up just one more time. I sync frequently to icloud, but the last time I backed it up to my pc was 11/16/2011. I can access everything I've backed up(txts, images, etc via other applications), but I have some important correspendeces that took place between then and now that I would like to have.  
    Is there way for me to backup the phone without entering the passcode?  Also, I have read through some of the discussions, and pardon my ignorance but I wanted an unequivocal answer to this question:  If I restore the phone from the backup of 11/16, will I lose everything after that date? And, are there other alternatives?
    I have tried some things which I thought would be clever ways to bypass this problem, but alas...here I am asking for help. I find it frustrating that I can sync to icloud (still) yet I cannot backup to my pc without passcode. I guess a good alternative would be if I could access my txts on icloud? I may consider replacing the screen, but I don't know if this will fix the problem since the phone looks pretty bad. I also prefer not to replace the screen since I wont be using this phone any longer.
    Your comments / suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    reaL

    Restoring a phone from a backup will put the device back to the state it was when the backup took place, i.e. all info that you had on that phone before using the backup will be gone.
    You could try to restore the phone, which will back up the actual data on the phone, including the passcode, and use this backup to set up a new phone with. The passcode will still be the same, because it is  part of the backup.
    More info here, iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    Not being able to fill in the passcode is not much different from forgetting it.
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

  • I want to enter ICE numbers that can be seen from the lock screen of my iPhone. Any solutions?

    ICE numbers (In Case of Emergency) help first responders make important phone calls on your behalf in the event of an emergency. Typically these are stored as ICE numbers in your contacts, however, your contacts can't be accessed from a lock screen if you have set a password to get into your phone. Any wonderful solutions? I have developed one solution that works: I entered my ICE information into "Notes", and then took a screen shot of the information. Then I mailed it to myself and saved it in my camera roll. Once I selected the "photo" of my ICE information, I saved this as my lock screen photo. Now when anyone turns on my phone, they see my ICE numbers and they do not have access to any other parts of my phone.

    Having access to contact numbers stored in a phone without knowing the passcode sort of nullifies part of the reason for the passcode protection in the first place.  However, I do support giving users more freedom, os long as they understand the possible negative consequences.

  • Can you create a user entered text field that flows content in a subform?

    I am working on a conversion project taking a document library of over 600 forms from Word into PDF, for the most part it's simple and binding fields to the database schema and using subforms is working quite well - however, there are some instances where there is a combination of user entered fields mixed with database fields and in some cases the end user fields are all there are but the amount of content can vary from 250 characters to thousands.  The project manager wants a PDF that enables users to enter whatever amount of text they need to and have the form layout function the way it does as if all fields were populated by the database - I don't know of a way to make that work unless content is entered in the schema first (or implement CM and have all users working in LiveCycle, but the database uses PDF, sothat's not an option right now).
    If anyone has any ideas how to make these things work I would greatly appreciate hearing about it.
    Thank you so much,

    Hi,
        If you can post your form in the post, I can have a look at it and provide my feedback.
        I created a sample file for your reference..
        1) The Content property for the Page1 was set to Flowed.
        2) Each text box is placed inside a Subform which is also has the content property set to Flowed.
        3) In the Form Properties, under the Default tab, set the PDF render format as Dynamic XML form.
        4) In the Form Properties, under the Preview tab, set the Preview Type as "Interactive Form" and Preview Adobe XML Form as "Dynamic XML form". (this step is for the previewing the PDF in the designer).
        5) Finally save the form as Dynamic XML form. (File Menu -> Save As).
    Hope this helps.
    If you still have issues, please post your form..
    Thanks
