Formula help needed

Hi,
I have a sheet with abt. 3.000 rows. From one of the rows I want to extract the date. The row looks like this:
Festgelegt für 5. September 1946 von 09:15 bis 10:15, that is a textstring
So in the first field I used part to get the Date "5. September 1946" this works fine.
In the next step I used left;4 to extract the word "Fest", this works fine to
Now in the next step I want to work with "if".
What I would like to have a formula that looks like this
If leftstring4="Fest" than get the partstring"5. September 1946" an fill the field with this date.
Any help available
tks in advance

Hi Yva,
still one problem with the formula.
"Urlaub
Festgelegt für 25. Juni 1977 von 09:00 bis 10:00 25. Juni 1977
Portugal
Festgelegt für 6. Juli 1977 um 23:00 bis 7. Juli 1977 um 00:00 0"
as You can see the first row works, but the second not why.
The errorcode says "could not find " von "
any idea ?
like to hear from You

    I want to display the stock which is older than 30 days in a separate row like this
    ...........................     Good stock.............._Good stock >30days_          
    Brand..................Qty.....Value......................Qty.....Value     
    Product A.........103.....77066.41

    All should be displayed in a single report. and only the stock and the stock which is older than 30 days should be displayed in the next columns.
    Can anyone tell me how do I achieve this plz.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    U can drag the 'stock age' column under key figures and then in display property for 'stock age' -hide it..THen for the column 'Good stock >30days'-create a formula as follows:
    ( 'stock age' > 30 ) * 'goods stock value'
    and similarly for qty as well:
    ( 'stock age' > 30 ) * 'Qty'
    hope it helps.
    Regards,

  • Select expert formula help needed

    I'm trying to come up with a formula to put in the select expert that will include all records. But if there is a record id(which would be a parameter field) passed to the report, it will only select that record that matches the parameter record id.  Is this possible?

    Yes, you can do that with an "All" option in the parameter list.
    And you selection formula would look like this:
    {?your parameter} = "All" or {your id field} = {?your parameter}
    The "All" option is not a really selection rule.
    It's just to control to use or not use:
    {your id field} = {?your parameter}
    So you can name it whatever you like, "*", "Any ID", or anything

  • Help Needed with a Formula

    Can someone help me with a particular formula I need?
    I’ve set up a simple sheet to track budget spending for Christmas.
    http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/tt320/_dash/NumbersShot.png
    Let’s say we have $500 to spend. What I want to do is have it so that when a purchase amount is entered into D3, D9 would then show $500 less that amount (thus automatically reflecting how much is left to spend without having to do the math).
    Then later when an amount is entered into D4, D9 would show $500 less the amounts in D3 and D4, etc.
    What formula would I need to put in D9 for this?

    I figured it out.
    In case this will help someone, I put the total available to spend in D2 and then put this formula in D9:
    =D2-SUM(D3:D8)

  • Formulas : Help for coding

    Hi experts,
    I face a problem I do not find any solution with my lack of coding development background.
    Here is my case :
    I have inserted a cross tab in my report. It looks like this :
    - Column : 3 following objects :
    Table.Period1
    Table.Period2
    Table.Period3
    - Line : Table.SIG containing th e following :
    1 Revenus
    2 Expenses
    3 Margin
    4 Other external expenses
    5 Added value
    => Lines 3 & 5 have been inserted to receive specifics formulas, subject of my thread.
    For example, I'd like to put a simple operation like:
    3 = 1- 2 (numbers, referred to above lines of my cross tab)
    But, in Crystal Report, it seems to be not possible to easily cross objects.
    Someone can help ? Have any idea ?
    Thanks for you time,

    Hi Debi, thanks for your reply,
    I've created a report using "manual cross tab"; and also using automatic/manualformulas.
    The thing is a resultat like that :

    Business rule: a combination consists of a maximum of 4 subjects (must contain)
    and the user is less relevant to a COMB_NAME(name of combinations) but user need

    i need the following output
    COMB_ID COMB_NAME SUBJECT1 SUBJECT2      SUBJECT3      SUBJECT4

    you can use any of the COMBINATION table(either (2) or (3))
    and i want to know
    1)which design is good in this case
    (i think SUB_ID1,SUB_ID2,SUB_ID3,SUB_ID4 is not a
    good method to link with same table but if 4 subjects only(and must) comes
    detail table is not neccessary )
    now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
    i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
    i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
    2)how it could be designed in any other way.
    any help/suggestion is welcome
    thanks for your time --Pradeesh

    Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
    SELECT C.COMB_ID
    , C.COMB_NAME
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
    FROM COMBINATION C;
    As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

    Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
    But not sure that my lenses will work.
    I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
    A 10/20 ex  Sigma   HSM  IF.
    And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
    ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours  BRODIE

    In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
    I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
    Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.

  • Help needed! Raid degraded again!

    Hi!
    Help needed! I hava made bootable RAID with two S-ATAII 250Gb HDD and its not working! Every now and then at bootup I get a message RAID -> DEGRADED... Must be seventh time! Rebuild takes its own time!
    What am I doing wrong!
    T: Ekku
    K8N Neo4 Ultra
    AMD 64 4200+
    2 Gb RAM
    2 x 250 Gb HDD (Maxtor)
    nVidia RAID (in mb)
    P.S. I wery SORRY with my poor language!

    I'm going to blame the nVRAID because I've seen issues with it in the past. If your motherboard has another non-nVidia RAID solution, use that instead. Using the nVidia SATA ports as BASE or JBOD is fine and dandy but RAIDing always had issues. It's not even a driver issue I think it's just instability. Latest drivers and even boxed drivers never helped. Granted, some will report success with their rig. But on a professional level I've seen nForce issues on different motherboards and different hard drives that had RAID disaster stories.
    Good luck and if you don't have another RAID solution, my suggestion would be to buy a dedicated RAID controller card.

    Have you tryed Google ? really.. your question is inrelevant. No need to reply indeed.
    Why do you come here asking this question anyway ? is it becouse you have a MSI gfx card ? and the adapter has nothing to do with this ?
    You think you can come in here yelling.. thinking we have to put up with it and accept your style of posting. This is not a MSI tech center.. it's a user to user center.. Your question has nothing to do with MSI relavant things anyway's.

    Hey,
    Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i EE on Sun Solaris 8. The problem I met was: we followed the installation guide from the documentation. And we selected the choice "install software only". After it was done successfully, we run Database Configuration Assistant utility to create a database instance. But finally it always tried to create the instance at the root directory ( / ) which doesn't have enough space and then failed. The case was that we have set the enviroment parameters: $ORACLE_BASE = /export/mydata, $ORACLE_HOME = /export/apps/oracle9i. That means it should be installed at /export/mydata, but it didn't. Any help or advice are welcome. Thanks.
