How can i paste text from Numbers too Pages without getting the box/frames?

I have a big list in numbers with a lot of text in each line. I need to copy/paste it in to a pages document but i don't want the frames to come along.

Hi Carl,
Pasting from a Numbers table into Pages will paste a table (frames). There is no "Convert Table to Text" command in Pages 5.
Paste into TextEdit. That will strip all formatting (including the table) and leave plain text. If your Numbers table had more than one column, the text will become Tab-Delimited. Before you paste into TextEdit, make sure the blank document is plain text (if you see Make Rich Text under the Format menu, you have a plain text document).
Select All, Copy, then Paste into Pages.
Regards,
Ian.

Find in: Current document
Search: Specific Tag table
Action: Strip tag.
Repeat for tr, th, td, tbody, etc...

How to center a text in numbers

I am having a little bit of a hard time trying to center a text between 3 or more columns.... how can I do that?

Threre are a few options:
1) select the three cells and merge them, then enter the text and open the cell formatter and center the text horizonatlly. NOTE: merging cells often causes unexpected problems
2) create a text box and type the text, then format as horizontally centered. Place the text box over the cells, set the fill pattern to the same as the cells
3) create another table to be the header :
and set the cell width for one cell to be the same as three in the "other" table
There are porbably more ways than this. Hopefully one of these will work for you or you will suggest another that works.

How do you rotate text in numbers

I'm trying to rotate the text in header row by 90 degrees. Is this possible in Numbers?

You cannot rotate text in any cell of a table. There are a variety of technoques to work around this limitation:
1) rotate a text box with the header text in it:
2) copy the desired header text (which is rotated) then open Preview and create a new document from the clipboard. Then use the rectangular selection tool to surround one word, then copy, then paste that into one of the cells in you header:
Create new Preview doc from the clipboard contents:
Now copy words out of preview using the rectangular selection tool:
copy.
now select the cell where you want this text:
There are some other ways (which you can find by searching this forum).
Hope these help

How to delete repeated text in Numbers

I have a long list of names, many of which are repeats. Is there a command that deletes any repeated phrases in Numbers?
Thanks.

Hi Koenig--
OK, finally, I figured it out! Thank you!
Here are the steps I took:
1. Put my list of names in Column A.
2. In Column B, on cell B2 (not B1--which is the mistake I was making prior), I pasted the code you suggested: =IF(A=A1,"duplicate","")
3. Then, I filled the entire column B with the formula. I made the mistake several times of just selecting the entire column from the top. That's wrong. What you need to do is select B2, the scroll all the way down and while holding shift, select the bottom B cell--only then click go the insert>fill>fill down. This fills every repeat with the word "duplicate" next to it. In my case, everytime there was a repeat in column A, column B would have the word "repeat" next to it.
4. Then I sorted column B by descending. This grouped all of the "repeats" at the bottom. I deleted all of those rows.
This worked for me.
What I don't understand is how or why you'd use the "paste values"? What's this about?
Thanks Koenig. It took me lots of trial and error, but I got it.

How do I convert a table into text

How do I convert a table into text

James,
I can only speak to the OSX version of iWork, and I'm not sure which version you are working with. The easiest approach is to Copy the Table in Numbers and Paste into Pages.
If your table has only 1 column, you may as while Paste and Match Style into Pages and you will go straight to text. With multiple columns, if you want to preserve the layout, as most users would, using tabs to maintain the column alignment, Select the table in Pages and Format > Table > Convert Table to Text.
As sometimes happens, things are easier in TextEdit than in Pages. A Paste and Match Style in TextEdit gives you a tab-aligned text field directly.

In fact it's about mac:excel, how convert in a cell a number written in text format into a value?

in fact it's about mac:excel8 or 11 in OSX10.7.4,
how convert in a cell a number written in text format into its value?
cheers francois

Hi francois,
If I copyone of them and do a past special/value, it does not work.
Try just Paste instead of Paste Special > Value
I know your question is about Excel, but this works in Numbers:
Copy 1 234 567 (with spaces) and Paste (not Paste Special) into a Cell in a Numbers Table. The result is 1234567 and it behaves as a number. A formula will consider it to be a number:
You asked Wayne: what do you mean by "to reference a cell" ??
The reference is from Cell A2 to Cell A1 through a formula, such as: =A1+1

How do I make a drop down list of text in numbers as it is made in the example spreadsheet for comparing cars for buying where you can choose a value from a dropdown list for each car?

how do I make a drop down list of text in numbers as it is made in the example spreadsheet for comparing cars for buying where you can choose a value from a dropdown list for each car?

Where is this example spreadsheet? Without seeing it I can only guess at what you are asking.
To make a drop-down list (a pop-up menu in Numbers-speak), format the cell as a pop-up then edit and add to the list of items.
If the example spreadsheet is pulling in a dollar value based on what car you chose in the pop-up, it is probably using LOOKUP or one of the other lookup functions, getting the information from another table (a lookup table). If, instead, these dollar values are what you are choosing in the pop-up, then you need to create a pop-up with these values in it.
The Help menu includes a link to a page where you can download the Numbers Users Manual. It also has a link to the Formulas and Functions guide. Both are useful to new users.

How to set the text of a cell in Numbers to vertical direction? Tks.

Hi
In Numbers, please tell me how to switch the text of a cell to vertical direction?
Tks.

Hi Kyle,
In Numbers, nothing having to do with a table can be rotated. (In Pages an entire Table can be rotated, but not text within a Table.)
There have been many suggestions posted here over the life of iWork for vertical labels. Most fall into three categories:
1. Type one letter, Option-Return, type another letter, Option-Return, and so forth.
2. Type label in a Text Box, rotate the box, position the box over the table, covering the cell where you need a label.
3. Create a PDF graphic with rotated text and insert it into table cell as Background Fill.
The third option is clearly the best. The steps for option three are:
Insert Text Box
Type label into the box
Rotate the text box
Select the text box (not the text inside the box)
Command-C
Switch to Preview.app
Command-N
Command-C
Switch to Numbers
Click on Cell where the label goes
Command-V
It sounds worse than it is. You can reuse the Text Box so you don't end up with a sheet full of them.

Jerry

How to Copy a table from mail to Numbers

Hi,
Today I received a mail from Exchange user. He Paste a table in to the mail and sent to me. I am using safari on Ipad 3.
i just want to copy tat table to Numbers; whenever i try to Select "Select all" all shows selected but after copying tabel can be shown !
Can you suggest me the way to resolve this issue.

Edit:
I realize I should have said: I don't know how to make Copy in Mail and Paste in Numbers work. I know how it should work, just as you believe it should work. When I try, the best I can do is a 1-column table of text, similar to what you get in OSX numbers if you Paste into the text layre of a cell rather than into a Sheet.

How to convert numc to text

Hi,
Char lenght is 8 and numc length is 20.
I am passing numc to char. Can you all please suggest me, how to write routine for converting numc to text?
.Regards,

Define routine for that Infoobject in transformation and use move statement in the routine.
MOVE SOURCE_FIELDS-NUMCFIELD TO RESULT.
NOTE: since NUMC field length is 20 and the target CHAR field length is 8, only the first 8 numbers would be moved to CHAR field.

How are attribute and text master data tables linked in SAP R/3?

Hello,
how are attribute and text master data tables linked in SAP R/3?
Most tables with attribute master data like T001 for company codes,
have a text master data table T001T (add "T" to table name).
When looking at the content of table T001 via transaction se11,
the text are automatically joined.
But for some tables there is no "T"-table (e.g. table TVBUR for sales offices
has no text table TVBURT), but in se11 you get texts. There is an address
link in TVBUR, but the Name1, etc. are empty.
a) Where are the text stored?
b) How does the system know of the link?
Hope someone can help!
Best regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas
The master and text table are not linked by name, of course, if you see the text table, it has the same key fields of master table, only it has the field key spras and the field for description.
The link beetween the tables is done by foreign key: if you check the text table TVKBT u need to see how the foreign key for field VKBUR is done:
-> Foreing key with table TVBUR
-> Foreing key field type -> KEY FIELD FOR A TEXT TABLE
->Cardinality-> 1-:CN
It's very important the attribute sets for Foreing key field type, if it's KEY FIELD FOR A TEXT TABLE, it'll mean the table is a text table: i.e. that mean the master table is a check table for the text table, where the foreign key type is for text table.
U can find out the text table of master table by SE11: GoTo->Text Table
U can fined some information in table DD08L.
