Filling in values based on the column and row headers

I have a question that seems simple, but I can't figure out how to do it and I've searched all over the forum to no avail.
I have one column that is width increasing by 3 in. increments (column A)
I have one row that is height increasing by 3 in. increments (row B)
I have one cell that is price (cell A1)
I have a formula to calculate price per sq. ft.: =CEILING(A3B2/144,1)A1. This gives me the whole sq. ft. number multiplied by the price per sq. ft. to give me a total price at that dimension (A3 is the width, B2 is the height, and A1 is the cell that contains the price per sq. ft.).
*Here is the problem*: When I try to cut and paste or fill the formula to the other cells, it doesn't calculate the formula as =CEILING(column A * Row B/144,1)*A1. Instead, it moves all of the values relative to the new cell that the formula is being pasted or filled to.
Is there a way to autofill the cells so that the formula continues to refer to the width column, the height row, and the price cell?

Aha! Apparently I didn't do enough research before I posted and I have since answered my own question. Here's how you do it. Look for "Distinguishing Absolute and Relative Cell References" and you should be able to find what you need. In my case, here is the formula I needed to have to make the copy and paste function do what I needed it to do: =CEILING($A3*B$2/144,1)*$A$. Hope that helps anyone who may have had the same problem I did.

  • How to make Column and Row headers bold in Web template?

    Hi Experts,
    I have a web application with a query in it. Now I would like to know how I could make the column and row headers of this webquery in bold font? I havent found any properties in any web item to make this possible. It looks like the only way to do this is CSS, but i dont have any experience with style sheets.
    Are there easier ways to do this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Rgds,

    Tried this for fun using JavaScript.  It appears to work, but is pretty much a hack, and I didn't test it thoroughly.
    Place this in a function that is called during onload of the page:
         var eleid='';
         for(var ct=0;ct<1000;ct++) {
              eleid='ANALYSIS_interactive_mc'+ct+'_tv';
              if (document.getElementById(eleid)) {
                   if(document.getElementById(eleid).parentNode.className=='urLayoutPadless') {
                        document.getElementById(eleid).style.fontWeight='bold';

    Code some like this in the WDDOINIT method of your view which defines the ALV component as used component.
    instansiate the ALV component
    data lo_cmp_usage type ref to if_wd_component_usage.
    lo_cmp_usage = wd_this->wd_cpuse_usage_alv().
    if lo_cmp_usage->has_active_component() is initial.
       lo_cmp_usage->create_component().
    endif.
    data lo_interfacecontroller type ref to iwci_salv_wd_table.
    lo_interfacecontroller = wd_this->wd_cpifc_usage_alv().
    data lo_value type ref to cl_salv_wd_config_table.
    lo_value = lo_interfacecontroller->get_model().
    hide the grid lines
    lo_value->if_salv_wd_table_settings~SET_GRID_MODE( value = '01' ).

  • How can I make the rolumn and row headers appear on the printed sheet?

    I am working in Numbers'09. I want to print out my chart with the column letters and row numbers showing.
    How can I make the rolumn and row headers appear on the printed sheet?

    g,
    Those annotations are called "Labels", and they are only visible during editing when a cell selection is made within the table. If you need to have the labels on your final output, you can create labels in Text Boxes and position them adjacent to the table.

  • Column and row headers not printing

    I have a report with multiple tablix and chart objects in it.  When running the report in Preview mode in Visual Studio, everything displays correctly.  However, for the two tablix objects in the report that are matrixes, the table headers do not
    print.  Here is what I see in Visual Studio:
    This is what I see when rendered as PDF:
    Any ideas where my headers may have gone?
    Derrick

    Hi Derrick,
    In Reporting Services, the PDF document is rendered to match the current state of any items in the report. For example, if the item is displayed when you preview the report, then the item is rendered in PDF.
    To trouble shoot this issue, we can refer to the following suggestions:
    Try to reopen the project, then export the report to PDF.
    Restart Reporting Services server, then deploy the report to report server, export it from report server.
    Create a new report with the same matrix to test the issue again.
    If the issue persists, please send me the RDL file with sample data to sqltnsp AT Microsoft.com (Please replace AT with @) or upload the files to your skydrive.live.com, so that we can make further analysis.

    sure wish this was easy to access in the help menu or on the web. not burried deep in a huge manual that is burried deep in the website. 
    For others who might read this, the corner square is called a "Table Handle"
    The A, B, C row is called "Reference tab letters" and can be used to refer to columns.
    The 1, 2, 3 column is called "Reference tab numbers" and can be used to refer to rows.

  • Is there a way to fill a cell with a value based on the selection from another cell?

    For example: If have a drop down menu created for Cell A1 with options (Dog 1, Cat 2, Bird 3). Is there a way to fill cell A2 automatically when I select from the drop down menu.
    So if I selected 'Cat' in A1, cell A2 would automatically input the 2.

    I suggest an extensible method that allows you to add other animals:
    This method adds a small table called "Animal Lookup" that matches names (same as in the pop-up menu) with a value.
    The table on the left uses this table to retrieve the value based on the animal:
    B2=VLOOKUP(A2, Animal Lookup :: A:B, 2, 0)
    select B2 and fill down

    Thanks in advance.

    You dont have to store the value anywhere
    You can do this from setMethod of EOImpl.java
    eg:
    void setAttributeXXX(String Value)
    // value contains new value
    // getAttributeXXX() contains oldValue
    if (value.equals(getAttributeXXX()))
    // Verify value is > 0 if (value.compareTo(0) <= 0)
    throw new OAAttrValException(OAException.TYP_ENTITY_OBJECT, // indicates EO source
    getEntityDef().getFullName(), // entity name
    getPrimaryKey(), // entity primary key
    "AttributeXXX", // attribute Name
    value, // bad attribute value
    "AK", // nessage application short name
    "FWK_TBX_T_EMP_SALARY_REQUIRED"); // message name
    setAttributeInternal(AttributeXXX, value);

    I create a power table as follow:
    Filter: column ID
    Axis: cat1 and cat2
    values: pct
    The problem is when I want to select all my data in my filter, a sum/mean is done for pct but the results are wrong. Did I missed something ? Is there a way to correct the problem ?

    Hi mi jo,
    It appears that you have created your percentage as a Calculated Column and what you actually want is a Calculated Field.
    You can create a Calculated Field by clicking on the Power Pivot ribbon and using a DAX formula similar to the following:
    Percentage:=DIVIDE(SUM(TableName[number]), SUM(TableName[total]))
    I have formatted this Calculated Field as a percentage and used it to create a Pivot Table:
    Is this what you were after or have I misunderstood the problem?
    Edit: Just took a quick look at the workbook and can see that the pct column is coming in as a fixed value for a row. The above solution should help. A best practice would be to first create a Calculated Field for each of the number and
    total columns such as...
    Sum of Number:=Sum(TableName[number])
    And...
    Sum of Total:=Sum(TableName[total])
    And then finally update this DAX formula:
    Percentage:=DIVIDE(SUM(TableName[number]), SUM(TableName[total]))
    To this...
    Percentage:=DIVIDE([Sum of Number], [Sum of Total])

    Tuff

    Hi Tuffy,
    For your 1st query:
    PUP field in Accounting 1 (if ML is active, Price Determination indicator=3) is the result of Actual Costing Run (CKMLCP) closing entry.
    For your 2nd query:
    In most of the cases the values will be different in Previous Period and Current Period. e.g.Period 6 values are the results of Actual Costing Run (CKMLCP) in 1st week of Period 6 for Previous Period (i.e. Period 5). Period 7 values are the results of Actual Costing Run (CKMLCP) in 1st week of Period 7 for Previous Period (i.e. Period 6).
    The reason for the different values: Price differences, Exchange rate differences, Price/Exchange rate differences from Low lower materials, etc.
    Thanks & Regards,
    ADI
