How can I dismiss formula warnings?

I wrote a formula that is giving me a warning "The formula uses a Boolean in place of a number.", but I'm getting the result I wanted. How can I get rid of the blue warning triangle? I am using Numbers 3.2.2.
Formulas and Functions Help was no help at all:
Review errors and warnings in formulas
When a formula in a table cell is incomplete, contains invalid cell references, or is otherwise incorrect, or when an import operation creates an error condition in a cell, an icon is displayed in the cell.
A blue triangle in the upper left of a cell indicates one or more warnings.
A red triangle in the middle of a cell means that a formula error occurred.
To review the error or warning, tap or click the icon.A message window summarizes each error and warning condition associated with the cell.
I can see this... I just want to get rid of the distracting triangles all over my spreadsheet.

What I did was I created a Pop-Up Menu with about 10 different names. I have text in this cells, not numbers. Then, based on the option selected in that cell I want to populate an entire table with values I have in a different sheet. An example below:
=IF($B$1=Table 2::$B$1,Table2::B3)+IF($B$1=Table 3::$B$1,Table3::B3)+IF($B$1=Table 4::$B$1,Table4::B3)+...
The warning I get says I'm using boolean instead of numbers, which is fine by me. It does recognize ABC=ABC, TRUE, but I get this warning.

  • How can i add formula to waveform data type?

    I want to interpolate my acquired data in terms of voltage to temperature. For this i need to use polynomial equation, but i am not able to directly attach formula node to the waveform data type. I want to know how can i add formula node to waveform data, and then also have it real time.

    One additional thought that may be helpful. Once you get the Y component of the waveform graph you are going to attempt to wire this into a formula node. You can do one of two things with that array. Put a for loop around the formula node and index the array into and out of the for loop. This allows you to do scalar math on the data. It is also possible to index and array in a formula node. The following KnoledgeBase demonstrates how to do this: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/9d72b6069346942386256a0d00604ed4?OpenDocument

  • How can we find formula function in Payroll Formula

    Guys,
    As far as concern regarding oracle functionality is very vast in particularly in payroll process, mostly functions are built-in to avoid user to create any custom code, but it is not fully covered business requirement. Therefore we need to create our custom function to cover/validate our business need and for this purpose we register this function in formula function, that is the easiest way to add any condition in payroll formula by calling this. Now my requirement is that to find formula name where this function has been used.
    Let's suppose any of user is created “X” formula through this functionality and called in payroll formula’s how can we find formula name wherever this function has been called.
    Please suggestion

    That's a good question. Fast Formula text is stored as a LONG data type which is now a deprecated data type. You can write a PL/SQL utility function to convert the text to a VARCHAR2 and search that but that has two problems:
    1) It assumes you have permission to create a function, which isn't something you'll likely have on a production database
    2) It'll barf for any formula in excess of 32760 bytes
    You can also use the to_lob function to copy the contents of ff_formulas_f into a new table (with a CLOB data type) and then create an Oracle text index to quickly search the CLOB. But again that assumes you have write access.
    If you're patient then you can also run this hideous piece of SQL:
    SELECT ff.formula_name
    ,ft.formula_type_name
    ,src.text source_plsql
    FROM ff_formulas_f ff
    ,ff_formula_types ft
    ,ff_functions fff
    ,all_source src
    WHERE ff.business_group_id IS NOT NULL
    AND ff.formula_type_id = ft.formula_type_id
    AND src.name = 'FFP' || to_char(ff.formula_id) || '_' || to_char(ff.effective_start_date, 'DDMMYYYY')
    AND src.type = 'PACKAGE BODY'
    AND lower(text) like '%' || lower(fff.definition) || '%'
    AND trunc(sysdate) BETWEEN
    ff.effective_start_date AND ff.effective_end_date
    AND upper(nvl(fff.alias_name, fff.name)) = upper('XXC_MY_FFFUNC');
    (replacing 'XXC_MY_FFFUNC' with the name of the Fast Formula Function you wish to search). Don't expect it to be fast. What this does is search the generated PLSQL rather than the source formula text. This only looks for customer-defined Fast Formula (those with business_group_id set).

  • How can I show formulas in spreadsheet AW6?

    I did a spreadsheet in Claris Works and was able to switch back and forth between the results of some calulations and the formulas. In a AW6 spreadsheet I can't figure out how to show the formulas. I've gone to Menu>Option>display>formulas (plus all the other display options such as solid lines,etc).
    All I can display is the results of the calculations. I can't check the calculations. I copied the basic spreadsheet from my G3 OS 9.1 and then pasted the whole thing into AW6. It seemed to work OK and I don't think this pasting is the problem.
    Would appreciate comments.

    None of the Display options other than Formulas should have any effect on whether formulas or results are displayed.
    Do you actually have the formulas in the sheet? What displays in the entry box when you click on a cell that should contain a formula? If you change data in an entry cell (one used for data entry), does the result change in cells using that data in their calculations?
    Do you still have the original (ClarisWorks) SS and application? If so, I'd try redoing the Copy/Paste operation, this time setting the ClarisWorks file to display Formulas before doing the Copy.

    Barry
    BTW: I've assumed you're currently using Tiger and AW 6.2.9, which is unable to open older ClarisWorks files. Showing information about your computer and OS when posting a question is often useful in narrowing the possibilities.

  • How can I remove these Warnings?/

    Hi all,
      I am getting these Warnings in my Report:1)"Field string ZERTAB is not referenced statically in the program".
    2)"No read access to field L_DUMMY"
    Please help me out in this,How can I remove this warning??
    Regards,
    Shashank.

    Hi Shashank,
    Don't worry about these warnings, still you can activate your program and run. There will not be any difference in the your output.
    1) "Field string <field1> is not referenced statically in the program", you will get this warning if you declare any variable and you are not using that variable in any part of your program. The solution for this is you can remove that variable if it is unusual or
    Sol1: declare the variable like this
             DATA : ZERTAB LIKE (or you can use TYPE) ERTAB.       "#EC *
    "#EC *  is used to suppress the SAP warning messages
    Sol2: declare the variable like this
             SET EXTENDED CHECK OFF.
             DATA : ZERTAB LIKE (or you can use TYPE) ERTAB
             SET EXTENDED CHECK ON.
    2) "No read access to field L_DUMMY", for this use "#EC NEEDED in the line of declaration (or) use SET EXTENDED command as above.
    Hope this will help you.

    Venkat.

  • How can I dismiss a call

    How can I ignore a call from a solicitor? For now I switch to vibrate to shut the ringer off until they hang up. There has to be a better way to ignore calls.

    Press the sleep/wake (top) button. Once will silence and it will eventually go to voicemail and twice will send it directly to voicemail.

  • How can I display a formula variable in the report?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to display a formula variable value in the report. When the user runs a report this variable value should be called once and displayed below the report title or in a specified cell. Is it possible something like this could be done? if yes, can someone tell me how can I achieve this functionality. I appreciate your time and effort with points.
    Thanks,
    Rao.

    Hi Bhanu,
    In the query properties you can only see text variables and not the formula variables. If I define my number of working days as text variable and I can display in the report. However, I need to use this variable in some calculation in the report, so it has to be formula variable in order to use in calculations. I appreciate your input with points.
    Thanks,
    Rao.

  • In Numbers, how can I make a cell reference a constant in a formula?

    This is a basic question, but I am not sure of the answer. I am trying to calculate a previous SUM that I have by a column. But when I calculate it, it keeps looking for data in the cells after the SUM that I already have.
    In other words, how can I get a constant cells value into my equation?
    Any help would be great!
    (In excel, I could do it just by placing $ around my cell field. Like H23 would be $H23$. THanks!)

    JJ,
    Numbers works exactly like Excel in this regard. To change H23 from a reference that will change if the formula is moved to a fixed cell reference, make it $H$23.

  • How can I write a program that compiles without warnings?

    I tried the following with the 1.5 beta-compiler (build 28; I think):
    class Y {
         public static final class Pair<X,Y> {
           private X fst;
           private Y snd;
           public Pair(X fst, Y snd) {this.fst=fst; this.snd=snd;}
           public X getFirst() { return fst; }
           public Y getSecond() { return snd; }
           public String toString() { return "("+fst+","+snd+")"; }
      public static void main(String... args) {
         Pair[] pairArr = new Pair[10];              // supposed to be an array of Pair<Integer,Integer>
         for (int i=0; i<pairArr.length; i++)
             pairArr[i] = new Pair<Integer,Integer>(i,i);
         for (int i=0; i<pairArr.length; i++) {
             Pair<Integer,Integer> p = pairArr; // unchecked warning
         System.out.println(p);
         Integer first = p.getFirst();
         Integer second = p.getSecond();
    // ... more stuff ...
    It turns out that I get an unchecked warning when I extract an element from the array of pairs. Okay, that's fine. How can I avoid the warning? I had expected that an explicit cast would help.
      Pair<Integer,Integer> p = (Pair<Integer,Integer> )pairArr;
    With a cast I'm telling the compiler: "I _know_ what I'm doing; please trust me." But the compiler still issues a warning.
    How can I write a warning-free program in this case? The only thing I can think of, is not using the parameterized type Pair in its parameterized form. But it's not the idea of Java Generics that I refrain from using parameterized types. What am I missing?

    issues a warning.  Yes, but at least you were able to change the warning from "unchecked assignment" to "unchecked cast" which is a little shorter ;-)
    Seriously , since arrays of generic types are disallowed, there is probably no way to get rid of these warnings - which makes a strong point for eliminating "unchecked" warnings altogether (see the other thread "selectively suppressing compiler warnings")

  • How can I paste a part of a sheet from Numbers in Pages as text, without the formulas.The reason I need this (and was used to in Office) so that I have the freedom to delete something in one cell (in pages document) without causing changes.

    How can I paste a part of a sheet that I copied in Numers in a pages document without the formulas, simply as text. Used this a lot in Office. When I make some changes in the pages document. f.i. deleting a cell, I don't want to change other cells. Also when I copy a part of a sheet from Numbers and one of the cells that is part of the formula is not also copied, when I paste in Pages it shows as an error.
    Hope that You can me help with this.

    Leon,
    There are two solutions to the first question, narrowing to one solution when you have a broken link causing an error.
    Here's the "works always" solution.
    Copy (Command-C) the table or range in Numbers
    Click off the table on the blank canvas of the sheet.
    Edit > Paste Values
    Command-C
    Switch to Pages
    Command-V

  • I need to get 2 decimal places when using a formula for a quotient and Numbers will only give me whole integers which is useless since most items will be less than 1. How can I change this?

    How do I get 2 decimal places when using a formula for a quotient? It only gives me whole integers. Most of the results will be less than 1 so I need 2 decimal places

    the quotient function returns only whole number portion of the dividing two numbers.  If you want the actual decimal value use the divide operator.  you enter this as:
    A/B
    if the numerator is in A1 and the denominator is in B1 you can enter the formula like this:
    =A1/B1

  • I am using Numbers on my iPhone5 and cannot get the app to do a simple (SUM) calculation.  It shows the formula correctly in the cell, but all I get for my long list of numbers to add is 0.  How can I get this to work?

    I am using Numbers on my iPhone5 and cannot get the app to do a simple (SUM) calculation.  It shows the formula correctly in the cell, but all I get for my long list of numbers to add is 0.  How can I get this to work?

    Oaky, at least we got that far.  Next step is to determine if all those "numbers" are really numbers.  Changing the format to "number" doesn't necessarily change the string to a number. The string has to be in the form of a number.  Some may appear to you and me as numbers but will not turn into "numbers" when you change the formatting from Text to Number. Unless you've manually formatted the cells to be right justified, one way to tell if it is text or a number is the justification. Text will be justified to the left, numbers will be justified to the right.
    Here are some that will remain as strings:
    +123
    123 with a space after it.
    .123
