Is it possible to fill this blank cells with value of cell above if Import this file in power query? 
Thank you

I am using Power Query preview Version: 2.9.3547.162 and there is a 'Fill Down' command in the transform section that does just that.

  • Problem of running the jump query from the result line

    Dear expert,
    I have a problem when running a jump query from the result line. Apparently, the values of the caracteristics haven't been sent to the jump target.  However, the configuration in RSBBS seems to be good as the jump works well from the other lines.
    Does anyone have some ideas on that?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    If you are supposed to bring across characteristic values to your target, then you will not be able to jump from the result line. The configuration expects that the values of the characteristic marked as being used in the jump are filled with unique values. When you use the result line as a source for your jump, the values in the result line will most likely be based on the sum of multiple characteristic values.

    When a new album is created it will fill with whatever is in the right hand window,  If you're in the Events or Photos mode it will contain all photos in the library.  Yes, strange behavior.

  • Query from the data abse  and pass values to a pdf form

    query from the data abse and pass values to a pdf form
    Hello
    Hello i have this html report that i have written to output a
    report.
    now, i am assigned to pass the same fields to a pdf form so
    the fields in the adaobe form can be populated or the term
    Pre-populate the form.
    can anyone help me get started.
    first i would like to know if it can be done.
    second, what do i need to get started (tools )
    third how do i do this.
    i am really lost at this point.
    can anyone give me tips in how to approach this
    subject??

    It can be one using Adobe Acrobat Designer which is packaged
    with Acrobat
    Professional Pro 7. It uses all XML to create and populate
    forms.
    If you had the time, you can also create <cfdocument
    type="pdf"> to have
    them ready and just pass the info to it so it autogenerates
    the PDF on the
    fly.

  • How to query from the xml table a single, specified element.

    Piero,
    you can add the condition "CRRVNC76R52G337R" to your xpath-expression like:
    SELECT extractValue(value(t),'/rapportoparentela')
    FROM NF_XMLT x
    ,TABLE ( xmlsequence (extract(value(X),'/dati/famigliare[rapportoparentela="CRRVNC76R52G337R"]'))) tto select only those famigliare-elements that have a child-element rapportoparentela with value "CRRVNC76R52G337R".
    When you stored your XML in an XMLType column in the table, i think the following queries are better:
    SELECT extractValue(x.your_XMLType_column,'/dati/famigliare/rapportoparentela')
    FROM NF_XMLT x
    WHERE extractValue(x.your_XMLType_column,'/dati/famigliare/codicefiscale')
    = 'CRRVNC76R52G337R'or
    SELECT extractValue(x.your_XMLType_column,'/dati/famigliare/rapportoparentela')
    FROM NF_XMLT x
    WHERE existsNode(x.your_XMLType_column,'/dati/famigliare[codicefiscale="CRRVNC76R52G337R"]')

  • Fill Blank Cells in Column

    I have a spreadsheet given to me that is a list. Column A is a nominal or catergorical variable (imagine something like "Nationality") and column B is a ratio variable (imagine something like "height").
    Unfortunately not all of the rows have data filled out column A. The issue is identical to the one presented here in MS Excel: http://www.contextures.com/xlDataEntry02.html
    I would like to calculate averages for the subgroups in column A. I could do this manually be selecting each range of data in column B, but with thousands of cells and many subcategories, it would take a long time. From what I can see Numbers "categories" function won't work as I would like if there are blank cells, so it seems I would need to fill in the blank data, to make a proper nominalised database list. Rather than do this manually with manual fills, is there a way to do it programatically? I can't manage the trick for MS Excel in the aforementioned website, as Numbers only allows filtering for blank cells, rather than selecting blank cells.
    I hope someone can help.

    And now, the script :
    --[SCRIPT fillblankcells]
    Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : fillblankcells.scpt
    déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
    <VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
    Sélectionner une cellule dans la colonne à compléter.
    menu Scripts > Numbers > fillblankcells
    Si une cellule de la colonne est vide, le script l'alimente avec le contenu de la dernière cellule remplie qui la précéde.
    --=====
    L'aide du Finder explique:
    L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
    Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
    Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
    --=====
    Save the script as a Script: fillblankcells.scpt
    Move the newly created file into the folder:
    <startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
    Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
    Select a cell in the column to fill.
    menu Scripts > Numbers > fillblankcells
    The script will fill every blank cell of this column with the contents of the preceeding filled cell.
    --=====
    The Finder's Help explains:
    To make the Script menu appear:
    Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
    Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.

  • C# : Get Column name for an Insert Query from The Selected GridView Row.

    Hi Guys, I am trying to insert data in an SQL table by executing an Insert Query.

    Here's the snippet:
    SqlCommand cmd30 = new SqlCommand("insert into mytable ( '"+GridView7.SelectedRow.Cells[0].Text+"' , r_id) values ('"+ GridView7.SelectedRow.Cells[1].Text +"', '"+TextBox1.Text+"')",con30);
            cmd30.ExecuteNonQuery();
    **r_id is not a Primary Key.
    The Error is get is:
    Incorrect syntax near 'r_id'.
    Any Help will be appreciated.

  • How to call a query from the backing bean ?

    Hi all,
    Another question for you guys :
    I made a jspx page with an input form and a submit button.
    When I click the submit button, the action my_action in my backing bean is executed.
    This is the code :
    public BindingContainer getBindings() {
    return BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
    public String my_action() {
    BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
    OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("EmployeesView");
    Object result = operationBinding.execute();
    if (!operationBinding.getErrors().isEmpty()) {
    return null;
    I hoped that the query 'EmployeesView' was executed in this way, but I get the following exception :
    java.lang.ClassCastException: oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.model.binding.FacesCtrlHierBinding cannot be cast to oracle.binding.OperationBinding
    So how should I execute the query EmployeesView ?
    Second part of the question : What if I typed the name an employee in my form, and I want to
    execute a query that selects all the Employees with that name ?
    How do I make a query with a variable as input in the WHERE clause ?
    Thanks in advance.

  • InfoPath form opens in the browser instead of InfoPath Filler when a link is clicked from the Approval Task email

    I have an admin approved InfoPath 2010 form that is web enabled. It is published to a SharePoint 2010 Forms library and an Approval Workflow is attached to it.
    The form needs to open up in the InfoPath Filler with the Workflow Task bar at the top so users can approve the task from within the form and not go to Tasks list to do so.
    Here's a problem I am experiencing: sometimes the form opens in InfoPath Filler and sometiems it opens in the browser when the link to approve the form is clicked form the email that is sent by the workflow.
    Windows 7, IE 9, MS Office 2010:
    The form opens up in InfoPath filler like it supposed to. The Workflow task bar is there for users to approve the form.
    Surface Pro with Windows 8.1, IE 11 and MS Office 2013
    The form opens up in the browser and there is no Workflow task bar at the top.
    Things that I've already looked at and tried which didn't solve the issue:
    - The forms library is exclusivly set to open documents/forms in the Client Application
    - Set the browser compatibility mode in IE 11, that doesn't work too well, because you have to do it every time you open the browser.
    - Setting browser compatility in IE 11 reintroduced another issue, of multiple login promts, which was fixed by entering the SharePoint site in question into the Trusted sites by a group policy. Adding the site to trusted sites made the forms open up in the
    browser.
    - Researched compatibility issues with InfoPath and Windows 8.1, cannot find anything.
    - Researched compatibility issues with InfoPath 2010, Windows 8.1 and SharePoint 2010, also didn't find anything.
    Can someone offer a suggestion on how to fix this problem, preferably with no code, because we are not allowed to put custom code on the server?
    I need to force InfoPath form to open in InfoPath Filler when the link to the form is clicked from the Workflow email. Also the login prompts should not pop up. Need it to work on all the platforms: Windows 7, and Surface Pro Windows 8.1.
    Thank you.
