How do I copy a spreadsheet/table from one Pages document to paste to another?

Hello:
I am in graduate school and am working on an assignment that requires that I use two different 'templates,' or tables, to analyze data. Instead of filling them in separately and saving as multiple documents, I have created an assignment document with my header. I want to copy the tables from the two 'template' documents and paste them both to my assignment document. I've tried highlighting the table in the template document, clicking copy, and then pasting in my assignment document. Nothing is pasted.
What am I doing wrong?

What version of Pages?
What OS, iOS or OSX?
Are you sure you have the Table selected and not a cell or just contents?

    How do I copy an address book from one user account to another?

    You haven't understood me. Follow these steps:
    1. Log in the user where are the files you want to transfer, and open a Finder window.
    2. In Finder, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type /Users/Shared. Now you're on Shared folder, so leave that window.
    3. Open a new Finder window without closing the old one, go to the folder with the files you want to transfer, and copy them to Shared folder.
    4. After copying the files to Shared folder, go to  > Log Out, and log in the other user.
    5. Repeat the step 2, and you will get access to the transferred files. Now, you can open them directly from this folder, or you can copy them to a folder on your user folder

    In most cases you can just select the text and copy/paste. You can do that unless the file is a picture/scan.

  • How do I copy a page from one Pages document to another using Pages 5.0?

    I posted this question on another page, and haven't recieved an answer to it yet. However I have found a temporary solution, so I am posting this here in case anyone else has a similar problem.
    The issue here is that I have just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Maverick (10.9.1), and my Pages also upgraded (to 5.0.1), altering my Pages documents. This is the issue, as as far as I can see the new Pages does not offer some of the basic needs that the old Pages did! In other words it is worse than the previous version.
    Using the upgraded new Pages 5.0.1 seems to result in some major editing problems for me. If you upgrade, make sure you KEEP the old version of Pages 09 (v 4.3). That is what has saved me!  If you have the same problems I have had - explained below, you will still be able to close the new version and open your Pages document in the old version, provided it is not a new Pages document. If it is, it will be possible to export it as a Pages 09 document and edit properly.
    After upgrading to the new Pages 5.0.1, when I open documents in Pages and try and copy a section from one document to another (easy before using the thumbnails) many of the Menu items previously available are visible but appear faded and are not possible, including Insert>Section Break/Page Break/Page Number and Edit>Cut/Copy/Delete/Undo/Redo
    This even happens if I duplicate the Pages document and try and do any of these from the Duplicate (which should be an easily editable copy).
    My solution has been to simply open all Pages documents that Iwant to edit (or may want to edit in future) in the old Pages app (v 4.3), which I never got rid of. That has meant I can continue editing and copying a section (of 1 or more pages) from one Pages document to another.
    If anyone reading this has figured out a way to edit Pages documents using the new version 5.0.1 please post an explanation, and I will try it!

  • Add to Multiple Tables from One Page

    Hello,
    I am building an application that handles hardware inventory (APEX 4.0). I have an input page that adds data to two or more tables all at once. The page has two forms on it that point to two separate tables. However when I try to run the page, it fails and returns an error:
    ORA-06550: line 1, column 437: PL/SQL: ORA-00904: "ORH_LAST_UPDATE_DATE": invalid identifier ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
         Error      Unable to process row of table IDD_ID_DATA.
    So far as i can see within the App, that column is not at issue (I am not even doing anything to it and it is nullable). I have looked into the App itself as well as doing some online research but have found nothing helpful...
    So my question is this: Is it possible to add to multiple tables from one page? If so how do I do it?
    I am new to APEX so any help would be greatly appreciated!

    UPDATE:
    I received an email from the APEX Support Team:
    "The simple answer is that you will need to manually code the DML (and query) processes if you wish to maintain multiple tables from one page (There is a limit of one table when using the built-in processes).
    In order to do this I suggest you delete the processes generated by the wizards and create PL/SQL processes with insert, update, delete statements as necessary. Such coding is not difficult but is more time consuming than when you can use built-in processes."
    I have been playing around with PL/SQL code and the end result is this:
    begin
         INSERT INTO table1
         VALUES(
              :P2_Item_Field1,
              :P2_Item_Field2);
         INSERT INTO table2
         VALUES(
              :P2_Item_Field1,
              :P2_Item_Field2);
    end;
    I used this code in a custom PL/SQL Process in the Processing>Processes section of Page Processing and it seems to work fine now. The only downside to this method is if the name of a Page Item is changed the code will also have to be changed. Other than that i have had no problems.

  • How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5?

    How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5 with the Maverick system?

    What may be overlooked in Pages v5 is the notion of combining Text Boxes via the Menu > View > Show Arrange Tools. When you select two Text Boxes, an extra panel unfolds at the bottom of the Arrange Tools window. Uncheck one Text Box and this panel abruptly disappears.
    One can achieve text flow effects between Text Boxes differently based on how one positions the Text Box overlap, and choice of effect above. Though not the accustomed flow found in Pages ’09 v4.3, flow does occur. Consider the possibilities of combining a Shape and a Text box to cut an irregular Text box.
    If I create two Text Boxes and position them side by side with outline touching and choose Unite, this creates one larger Text Box and text flows across and down. On the otherhand, if I overlap the upper left corner of a lower Text Box over one above and to the left, then choose Union, pasted text fills the first Text Box and then flows across and down into the other box. Here is a Union example:
    Intersect will leave a small Text Box where the two overlap, so not much value there. Subtract will cut a chunk out of one Text Box that is the size of the overlapping piece of the second Text Box:
    And Intersect will leave an island in the center where the two Text Box overlap, with flow jumping over this bridge.
    Clearly, this is not what we were accustomed to in the past, but with imagination, style, and layout tuning, it does offer alternative Text Box creativity and layout. Of course, there is the option of simply returning to the previous Pages version for true Text Box linking that most will want to use.

  • How to insert data into a table from an xml document

    using the XmlSql Utility, how do I insert data into a table from an xml document, using the sqlplus prompt.
    if i use the xmlgen.insertXML(....)
    requires a CLOB file, which i dont have, only the xml doc.
    Cant i insert directly from the doc to the table?
    the xmlgen examples I have seen first convert a table to a CLOB xmlString and then insert it into another table.
    Isnt there any other way?

    Your question is little perplexing.
    If you're using XML SQL Utility from
    the commandline, just use putXML.

    Hold your finger down in that mail until the little blue bubble pops up. One of the options should be to select all. Choose that and all will be hilighted. then a pop up comes up to copy, choose that, open your destination and hold your finger down to get the paste dialogue.

  • How can I copy an iPhoto book from one Mac to another?

    I'm wanting to copy an iPhoto book from one MBP (OS 10.7.3) to another (10.8.3). Is there an easy way to do it?

    You will have to copy the entire iPhoto Library to the other Mac as the library is a virtual entity in the library recorece in the database files.
    Once it's been copied launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the libary in the window that appears.  I
    NOTE:  if the new Mac has  newer iPhoto version than the old Mac check to make sure it has the same theme that you used in the book.  There were some changes in themes from iPhoto 8 (09) to iPhoto 9 (11).  If your new iPhoto doesn't have the same theme you may want to complete the book on the old Mac.

  • How do I carry over database variables from one page to another?

    I have a MySQL database displayed in a table on one page, with a link in each row pointing to a DETAILS.php page where I want to show the end-user all the details of that record or line item in a different format. After I link to the new page, how do I address the variables for "that particular record" clicked on in the 1st page? Will the system automatically knew which record from the table row I linked from?

    Each record in your database should have a 'unique' identifier (primary key) tying the record to it.
    You then pass that 'unique' identifier to the details page in the link which you create using php to loop through each record found in the database, which presumably you have already done.
    <a href="details.php?id="<?php echo $row['id']; ?>
    On the details page you then use php to get the 'id' of the record passed to the page via the link:
    $id = $_GET['id'];
    Once you have the id you are in business and can create a mysql query of the database to get the record associated with the id
    SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = '$id'
    'id' being the 'unique' field in the database that identifies the records and '$id' being the variable passed from the link

  • How do I move an app icon from one page to another?

    I would like to organize my Ipad2 but can figure out how to move the app icon from one page to another.

    Tap and hold down on an app icon until it wiggles. Then hold down on the icon and drag it about halfway over to the next screen and just hold it there for a second or two and the app will jump to the next page. Do it slowly and just hold the app on the edge of the screen. Don't try to drag it over quickly. It takes a little practice.
    Tap the home button when you are done and the apps will stop wiggling.

  • How do I copy an art object from one document to another using illustrator API(C  )

    Hi, I'm trying to copy text and graphic elements from one document into another, does anybody has an idea how to do it using Illustrator SDK(C++)?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you call AIArtSuite::ReorderArt() giving the layer group handle from the target document and using art from the source document, it will move art between documents. That said, there are all sorts of caveats that come along with that -- some things move over automatically (graphic styles, symbols) while others cause problems. E.g. copying art that contains a swatch can cause a crash when you shut down the source document because it may keep the style reference to the swatch in the source document -- which goes away when the document is closed. Gradients in particular are a problem I believe. Straight up colours are (I think) fine. I've had to write a lot of workarounds for various headaches caused by moving art between documents.
    Bottom line: its very doable, but there are a lot of edge cases. This was clearly not an intended use of the SDK, though it is possible.

  • How do I copy parts of layers from one AI doc into a new AI doc and keep/create same layer names?

    How do I copy PARTS of layers containing many objects from one CS5 AI (v.15.0.2) doc into a new CS5 AI doc and keep/create the same layer names?
    To start with, I have one fairly complex AI document with 100 layers,  with several hundred items in each layer. For example, one layer named "Stars" contains  400 separate stars (not grouped), another layer named "Crosses" contains 300 separate crosses, and a 3rd layer named "Text" contains 200 separate words (not outlined).
    If I select, by marqueeing a section of the image/artboard, some (but not all) of the individual items contained in the several layers, then  paste that selection into a new CS5 AI doc, I cannot get them to  create new layers of the same name. Instead they go into one general layer (e.g. "Layer 101") as a jumble of discrete, but unorganized objects (no layers or sublayers). In other words, I have lost the 3 main layers from which I selected a bunch of objects.
    Checking "Paste Remembers Layers" has no effect on this result. In fact "Paste Remembers Layers" does not remember layers at all. Only if I select ALL the items in the several layers will it paste those layers by those names into the new doc (or create new layers of the same names).
    Of course it is a COLOSSAL waste of time copying the ENTIRE document, then pasting the WHOLE thing into the new doc (with layers retained), then deleting the parts I DON'T need, so please don't suggest that as the solution.

    No Monica, nothing in Plug-ins other than the standard installed items (extensions, filters, formats, etc.). No 3rd-part clipboard extension on my computer that I'm aware of, either. All frustratingly basic. And my other CS5 Adobe programs appear to work well, at least to the extent that I am familiar with them.
    So, from what I can tell of the various comments (thanks to all of you), am I correct in thinking that it seems I can't, in fact, do what all of you can do (that is, copy some objects from some layers in one doc and paste into another doc preserving those same layers by name and organization, and each containing the correct objects from each original layer)?
    If so, that solves half my issue - "is it supposed to be possible to do it"; leaving just the other half - "why can't I do it too".
    I'll get those screenshots made and posted later just in case I haven't adequately described the issue, or y'all haven't understood it.
