How can I enter data in a spreadsheet at the cursor

I want to be able to take a reading from an instrument and put it into the cell where the cursor is currently located in Excel 2000.  I could use a mouse click or "Return" key to indicate that now is the time to take a reading and enter it into the cell.  The cursor would be moved manually to the cell where it is desired.

Hello,
For formatting strings to be written to spreadsheets such as excel, see my post in the following thread - it includes an attached example:

PS - it does not address writing to a cell which your cursor is in - it uses simple file i/o to write a spreadsheet formatted string/file, and this cannot even be written in this way if you already have the file you are writing to open in another program - usually the program blocks access (and reasonably so) when it opens the file.  You can of course write to a file and choose which cell a given piece of data will show up in when you open it in excel... this is just formatting the data correctly, and as you'll see in the thread linked above, this is rather trivial.

  • How can I enter data in an input schedule on a member in the EPM Add-On that is not a base member?

    Hello, all,
    how can I enter data in an input schedule on a member in the EPM Add-On that is not a base member?
    E.g. I want to implement a top-down-planning scenario and I have the following hierarchy:
    Europe
         Germany
         France
         UK
         Spain
         Italy
    How can I enter a value on Europe in an input schedule in order to allocate this value afterwards?
    Thanks in advance and best regards
    Gerd

    Gerd,
    It should be something like below -
    EuropeInput
    Europe
         Germany
         France
         UK
         Spain
         Italy
    EuropeInput shall be kept out of hierarchy and should be a base level member. Users will enter the numbers in this member. In your script logic, you will make use of this member to allocate the data in Bas(Europe) i.e. Germany, France, etc.
    Effectively, after allocation the same data will be rolled up to Europe.
    Many top-down planning would use such work-around as BPC doesn't allow writing to parent node.

  • How can you save data to a spreadsheet and use different worksheets in the spreadsheet?

    I am trying to save data to a spreadsheet.
    Each set of test data needs to be saved under a different worksheet. Is this possible and how can I do it?

    As the example that Dennis pointed out, this can be done using activeX. In addition to that example I have another that demonstrates how to create a new workbook with multiple worksheets and save data to each of them. I hope that between the two you can get an idea of what to do.

  • How can I enter actual percentage of completion in the WBS elements?

    Hi all !
    I Can not enter Actual percentage of completion in WBS elements...!
    I have followed these steps in Progress analysis:
    1.- In the progress tab of WBS elements I have entered Measurement method ESTIMATION for
    progress analysis (Plan&Actual).
    2.- In the WBS element I have estimated PLAN percentage of completion 100% in period 8
    3.- In the progress tab of network activities, I used ESTIMATION method for Plan and WORK for actual
    to calculate the percentage of completion.
    4.- I have entered final network confirmations
    Actual Start date: 08.11.2014
    Actual Finish date: 08.15.2014
    Remaining work is cero.
    5.- I run Project analysis to display measurement methods with transaction CNE1
    and Progress analysis with transaction CNSE5
    In Progress analysis the Processing % of work in Network activities is 100% but 0% in the WBS
    element
    Adj.NAgg.Act. POC (Adjusted non-aggregated actual percentage of completion)is 100% in network activities
    POC actual, non-agg.(Non-aggregated actual percentage of completion)is 100% in network activities.
    Does SAP calculates actual POC?
    Should I manually enter Actual percentage of completion in the WBS elements?
    I can not enter percent of completion (actual value) for WBS elements. The field is non editable !
    Please help !

    Hi Rafael,
    I am facing the same problem.
    I am using Plan method at activity : Time Proportional
                    Actual method at activity :  Work completion
    At wbs level Plan and actual is Time proportional.
    I am not identified how the "Adjusted non-aggregated actual percentage of completion" and
    "Non-aggregated actual percentage of completion"  is calculated.
    Please help me for the same.

  • How can I get data back that is in the trash?

    I don't seem to be able to retreive clips or other data that end up in the trash. When I click on the trash icon contained in the app I am only given the option of Cancel or Empty. Is that it? Once the data is in there it's gone? Thanks.

    iMovie 4 trash is a sort of virtual trash in that there isn't really a location where things are put (like your system trash) but instead a representation of how much stuff you cut out of your project. If you click empty (and never due that in iMovie 4 as there is a bug that sometimes trashes your project) what happens is iMovie rewrites all the media files to get rid of the stuff you clipped or deleted.
    So there are ways to get your stuff back. One way is to select any clip and pick the restore option which will reset the clip back to the way it was before you made cuts. The downside of this is that you lose all your edits on that clip and have to redo them over if the one you wanted to undo is several edits back.
    You might try this instead. Assuming your clips are all off the clip shelf and now down on the timeline, grab all the clips on the timeline, hold down the OPTION key and then drag them all back to the Clip Pane. As you drag up there while holding the OPTION key, you should see a green circle with a ( + ) in it. This means you are making a COPY to the shelf, not moving them. Drop them on the clip shelf. Now select clips on the shelf and do a restore on them from that location. I think this will let you restore the clips to their original size on the shelf while the ones on the timeline will remain untouched. Hopefully you will find what you lost.
    In the future, the best way to edit in iM4 to avoid this sort of thing is to import all your clips normally onto the clip shelf on the upper right side. Now rather than dragging them down to the timeline (removing them from the clip shelf) and editing them, OPTION drag them to the timeline which will make a copy to the timeline rather than a move. Don't worry about drive space. When you make copies, they are not real copies (the media files are not duplicated) but instead just additional virtual copies, so you can make as many as you want with very little impact on drive space.
    Now you can edit to your heart's content on the timeline and if you ever make a mistake or need to get back a piece of clip you deleted, the full copy remains safe and unedited up and over on the clip shelf. You can always drag down additional copies if you need to get back footage or if you want to use the same footage more than once.

  • I think my hard drive crashed. How can I get data off via firewire before the HD completely goes? I was stuck on the BSoD and now I can't even use the install disk. Utility Disk said HD was okay. Please HELP ME

    Safe mode did nothing.
    Safe mode with verbose seemed to make it worse.
    Before continuously trying new things, I could use the install disk to check the disk utility and clear
    the hard drive from there but now the screen won't even load to that.
    I really need the data on the hard drive especially if it can't be salvaged.
    How can i transfer files?
    Am I better off physically taking my HD out or will it damage itself without
    leaving the system.
    I tried command r
    resetting the pram
    safe mode
    jumping out a window
    nothing has helped.
    I am stuck on the blue screen of death and it flickers.

    No. In order to use FireWire Target Disk Mode you need to use a FireWire equipped Mac. Other than that the only other way I can think of to even attempt to access you files would be to remove your hard drive and install it in a case and connect it to another computer.

  • How can I receive data and print them in the smartform INTNOM2_N1?

    Hi experts!!
    I've to receive data from some tables and print them into the smarform INTNOM2_N1, for example I need to receive the data stext from the table hrp1000, but when I tried to do this, this doesn't work
    SELECT SINGLE STEXT FROM HRP1000 INTO WA_FORM_n1-STEXT
                          WHERE OBJID = P0001-PLANS AND
                          PLVAR       = '01' .
       because the data p0001-plans is empty how can I do this? I've tried with
    RP_PROVIDE_FROM_LAST P0001 SPACE VERSC-FPBEG VERSC-FPEND, but I think in smartforms we can't use RP_PROVIDE_FROM_LAST because I receive an error message,
    Does anybody know how can i do this?!
    Thanks a lot,
    Regards,

    Hi
    Please write this code in the smartform and pass on this internal table to the smartform FM..
    Also, in the form interface of the smartform declare the table to which u want to pass these values.
    The above process will help u to pass values into the smartform from print program.

  • Hi I am bharath I am using Httpfox..How can I enter the URL manually insedi of Httpfox window?

    I want to enter one server URL and want to see the headers and all what are requirments for that serevr. How can I enter that server URL inside of the Httpfox? Thanks in advance

    hello, i think that extension is just recording/logging the headers as you are browsing along in the browser - so i think you just have to open httpfox and enter the address you want to inspect in the firefox address bar.
    if you have more detailed questions about extensions, please contact the developers of the extension themselves or use the support channels they provide, since they can give you far more detailed guidance.
    eidt: i think firefox also offers the same functionality inbuilt in the net section of the webconsole in tools > web-developer, [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Using_the_Web_Console]

  • How can I import data in to the digital word generator in Multisim?

    How can I import data in to the digital word generator in Multisim?
    I just  received this comment from a friend, a RADAR engineer, who has just down loaded Multisim.  He has been using HP/Agilent software.  He has a work around using a piecewise linear voltage waveform with data imported from Excel but this is not really a good solution.  It would also be helpful to import data from Mathcad or equivalent.
    "I thought I was about to be impressed with MultiSim but it ended only in disappointment. There is a word generator in the simulation instrument panel which can drive the DAC with a waveform and it can have thousands of lines of values. I opened Excel, wrote the formula to generate the time and voltage points for a chirp, converted to DAC values in Hex and then went back to the word generator in MultiSim to load the values only to find that you have to enter each value manually. It doesn’t even allow you to paste in a list of values from a text file. I’m not going to type 5000 values by hand. If you get the chance to give feedback to National Instruments please ask them if the paste option can be added to the word generator. MultiSim is useful in many regards, but in this case, it left me with the impression that it is considerably limited in capability compared to what I’m used to."

    Hi,
    You can load your data automatically in the Multisim word generator. Follow these steps:
    - Save your data file (in excel .xslx ir .csv format) on your computer
    - Change the extension of the file to ".dp"
    - Double-click the word generator in Multisim and click on Set...
    - In the Settings dialog box, click on Load and then Accept
    - This will prompt you to select the .dp file you have on your computer, select it and you're good to go
    However, in Multisim you have the option of creating your own custom simulation analysis and instrument.
    I will try creating the instrument and send it back to you but it might take some time.
    Multisim and LabVIEW are very powerful in test automation, with the custom instruments you create for Multisim you don't need to export your data file into excel from LabVIEW (or MathCAD or other tools) and then reload it into Multisim. The test procedure is automated instead.
    Please check this reference design about automated simulation
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7825
    Here is how you can create your own custom measurement tool in Multisim and LabVIEW, but as I mentioned, I will create the word generator and come back to you anyways

  • How can I modify data from a Transparent Table without ABAP code.

    Hi,All
    How can I modify data from a Transparent Table (like TCURR),  and important thing is I want do all that with no ABAP code here. It is like that we always do that in a Oracle database use TOAD or PLSQL third party tools, with no script code here.
    I had fond that there is a way can do that:
    1, type 'se11',and Display Database table 'TCURR', click Contents, then click Execute to display all data
    2, type '/h' and let debugging on
    3, select one of this data then click 'Display',enter in debugging system.
    4, then make a breakpoint in the code. But... display a dialog let I type a 'ABAP Cmnds', I want to know what can be type in for that?
    and, My system is ECC6.
    thank you all

    Hello,
    Your approach (with Vijay's suggestion) MAY work.  However, depending on how tight security is at the company that you are working at you may or may not be able to acutaly change the value of the SHOW field to EDIT.  This will be especially true if you are working in a Production environment.  Vijay's other comment is true as well.  This is not a recommended approach to change data (especially data with a financial impact like TCURR) in a production environment.  The auditors will not be impressed.
    Explore the option of a maintenace view or look at tcode TBDM to upload a file which includes daily rates from providers like Reuters or try tcode s_bce_68000174 which is a maintenance view on TCURR.
