How do I extract a set of rows from a table based on specified criteria?

I am using Numbers '08. I have a table that looks like this:
I would like to, programmatically, find the MAX amount of all the 'Clothing' category items. More generally I'd like it to work like the COUNTIF function where I can do this:
MAX(INCLUDEIF('Table::Category', 'Clothing'))
I think my intention is clear.
I suppose an alternate way is to create a table for every category and just do a MAX over that table, but this seems redundant since I already have that data in this particular table. Thanks!

The easiest way, to me, is to add a new column to you data table which only shows values from rows that match the category for which you want to find the max():
The new column (in this example) is titled "Active Category" and is selected from a Summary table.  Add a new table titled "Summary" as shown.
Make cell B2 contain the category.
Let's get the data table set up with the new column:
E2=IF(C2=Summary :: $B$2, D2, "")
select E2 and fill down.  This will only show the amount IF the category in column C matches what you entered in the summary table:
Now let's complete the summary table:
B3=MAX(Data :: E)
I hope this helps

  • How to bring the more than one rows from the table into the script

    Hi
    I have to bring more than one rows from the table into the Main windows of the script. so plz help me out.
    Thanks in Advance
    Ananya

    Hi Ananya,
       Bring more than one row into main window of script.
       For this you need to do some changes for data which you pass to main window.At a time you need to pass more than one row,so for this you need to define one structure.See below code.
    Types:begin of ty_rows,
         include structure (your row_structure),
         include structure (your row_sturcture),
    Types:end of ty_rows.
    for example....
    If i need to pass 2 vendor details at a time to main window then the structure should be like this.
    Types:begin of ty_rows,
           vendor1 like lfa1-lifnr,
           vendor1_name like lfa1-name1,
           vendor2 like lfa1-lifnr,
           vendor2_name like lfa1-name1,
          end of ty_rows.
    Data:i_main type standard table of ty_rows,
         wa_main type ty_rows.
    Based on condition you can pass more than one rows of your actual internal table data to i_main internal table.
    Then you can pass i_main internal table to your main window.
        I think this will help you.

  • Extracting information from a table based on different criteria

    Post Author: shineysideup
    CA Forum: Formula
    Hi Folks
    I have a bit of a strange one here.
    I need to extract information from a single table based on different critera.
    Sounds simple enough but here's the tricky part.
    This table is a table that contains the build of a product. All the parts that are used to make the product and also the sub-parts that are used to make the primary product parts.
    Example:
    I have a part that is in the product and the part no is 1111. This part is actually part of another part that is part no 1112
    What I need to do is display part no 1111 with all of its details but then also show that it is also part of part no 1112.
    The way the table holds this information is as follows.
    Seq_No      Parent_Seq_No     Part_No
    The seq_no is item no that is given to the part number. If the part is a member of another part then there is also a parent_seq_no.
    Everything needs to tie back to the seq_no and the parent_seq no as the part itself can be used in a parent or it can be used on its own. This way you can actually have the same part appearing in the list several times but the seq_no will be different for each one. If the part can be used in two different sub-builds (with each part being used twice in each sub-build) and also on its own once then you would have 5 different seq_nos two parent_seq_nos.
    What I need to do is to list all of the parts but then also when a part is part of a parent_seq_no I need to be able to display the parent seqno but also the part_no for that as the parent would also be listed as an individual item in the part list.
    At the moment listing the part_no, seq_no and parent_seq_no is easy but when I try to list the part_no for the parent I jsut keep getting the original sub part again. I can do this with a sub-report but with what I need to do with the data after listing the parts a sub-report is not an option for me.
    This make sense?
    Thanks

    As long as the chain only goes one link deep, you should be able to Alias the table and link it (left outer)  from the child part to the parent part.  Then build a Detail B (or Group Footer if that's where you're printing) and conditionally suppress is if there is no "Parent Part".

  • Fetching more than one row from a table after selecting one value from the dropdown

    Hi Experts,
    How can we fetch more than one row from a table after selecting one value from the dropdown.
    The scenario is that I have some entries in the dropdown like below
      A               B               C        
    11256          VID          911256  
    11256          VID          811256
    11256          SONY      11256
    The 'B' values are there in the dropdown. I have removed the duplicate entries from the dropdown so now the dropdownlist has only two values.for eg- 'VID' and'SONY'. So now, after selecting 'VID' from the dropdown I should get all the 'C' values. After this the "C' values are to be passed to other methods to fetch some data from other tables.
    Request your help on this.
    Thanks,
    Preeetam Narkhede.

    Hi Preetam!
    I hope I understand your request proberly, since this is more about Java and less about WebDynpro, but if I'm wrong, just follow up on this.
    Supposed you have some collection of your original table data stored in variable "origin". Populate a Hashtable using the values from column "B" (let's assume it's Strings) as keys and an ArrayList of whatever "C" is (let's assume String instances, too) as value (there's a lot of ways to iterate over whatever your datasource is, and since we do not know what your datasource is, maybe you'll have to follow another approach to get b and c vaues,but the principle should remain the same):
    // Declare a private variable for your Data at the appropriate place in your code
    private Hashtable temp = new Hashtable<String, ArrayList<String>>();
    // Then, in the method you use to retrieve backend data and populate the dropdown,
    // populate the Hashtable, too
    Iterator<TableData> a = origin.iterator();
    while (a.hasNext()) {
         TableData current = a.next();
         String b = current.getB();
         String c = current.getC();
         ArrayList<String> values = this.temp.get(b);
         if (values == null) {
              values = new ArrayList<String>();
         values.add(c);
         this.temp.put(b, values);
    So after this, you'll have a Hashtable with the B values als keys and collections of C values of this particular B as value:
    VID --> (911256, 811256)
    SONY --> (11256)
    Use
    temp.keySet()
    to populate your dropdown.
    After the user selects an entry from the dropdown (let's say stored in variable selectedB), you will be able to retrieve the collection of c's from your Hashtable
    // In the metod you handle the selection event with, get the c value collection
    //and use it to select from your other table
    ArrayList<String> selectedCs = this.temp.get(selectedB);
    // now iterate over the selectedCs items and use each of these
    //to continue retrieving whatever data you need...
    for (String oneC : selectedCs) {
         // Select Data from backend using oneC in the where-Clause or whatever...
    Hope that helps

  • How do I export a specific set of rows from Numbers?

    What i am looking to be able to do is
    Export a specific set of rows from Numbers
    I am working with large files of information
    but would like to break the file up into smaller files
    for example
    I have 1 file with 40,000 rows
    I need to be able to export/save this file into 4 smaller files
    Rows 1-10,000
    Rows 10,001-20,000
    Rows 20,001-30,000
    Rows 30,001-40,000

    I do not think I would use Numbers for this task.
    I would duplicate the file (let's say the name is data.txt)
    and name the two files:
    dataA.txt
    dataC.txt
    then I would open dataA.txt in TextEdit and delete the last half of the file and save
    then I would open dataC.txt in TextEdit and delete the first half of the file and save
    then duplicate dataA.txt and name the new file dataB.txt
    then duplicate dataC.txt and name the new file dataD.txt
    Now open dataA.txt and delete the last half of the file, save
    Now open dataB.txt and delete the first half of the file, save
    Now open dataC.txt and delete the last half of the file, save
    Now open dataD.txt and delete the first half of the file, save
    if you did this very often I would suggest a script of some kind

    EtbinYes, you could do that. OP specifically requested something else:
    wgdoig wrote:
    set table1.processed = "Y"
    where (table1.attribute1 = table2.attribute1)
    and (table1.attribute2 = table3.attribute2)This WHERE clause won't be TRUE if any of the 4 attribute columns are NULL. It's debatable about what should be done when those columns are NULL.
    But there is no argument about what needs to be done when processed is NULL.
    OP didn't specifically say that the UPDATEshould or shouldn't be done on rows where processed was already 'Y'. You (quite rightly) introduced a condition that would prevent redo from being generated and triggers from firing unnecessarily; I'm just saying that we have to be careful that the same condition doesn't keep the row from being UPDATEd when it is necessary.

    Thanks for your help. Duplicate rows were the issue.
    I finally debugged the problem to my time dimension.
    The OWB wizard generated time dimension contains only date, but no time.
    Unfortunately, for me to uniquely identify my data, I need to include time also (detailed in how do I include 'Time' in a time dimension? .
    Since Carsten was the first one to answer this, I am awarding the points to him.

  • How do I get and set column attributes in a table or a treetable with Java?

    Using 11.1.1.4.0
    Hi,
    How do I get and set column attributes in a table or a treetable with Java? For a simple example, say I have a table and want certain roles to see all columns (including address), and other roles can see only certain columns (no address). In a Java method, I want to test if a table's column visible attribute is true and if so, set it to false before rendering it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Troy

    Hi,
    this use case would be a perfect example for using seeded MDS customization. Instead of checking what users are allowed to see or not upon rendering time, you have a customization class and thus the framework doing this for you.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/31-mds-sample-169173.pdf
    In this paper and sample, specific users see different layouts. It also contains a customization class that shows how this can leverage ADF Security

  • How NOT to restrict no of rows from two tables

    I have two identical tables Invoice and Payment. The only difference is Invoice_id,Invoice_Amt and Payment_id,Payment_Amt columns that shows different ids and amounts. The bank_ids, names, account_types are same. Invoice table has 3 rows and Payment has 2. Simply meaning that there were 3 invoices generated but the bank received 2 payments. I want to show Invoice_Amt and Payment_Amt using sql query. But its giving me total 6 rows. Whereas, I want 3 from Invoice and 2 rows from Payment table to show side-by-side.
    CREATE TABLE invoice
    ( invoice_id NUMBER
    bank_id NUMBER,
    bank_name VARCHAR2(256),
    invoice_amount NUMBER);
    ----Invoice table has 3 rows showing 3 Invoice Amts
    CREATE TABLE payment
    ( payment_id NUMBER
    bank_id NUMBER,
    bank_name VARCHAR2(256),
    payment_amount NUMBER);
    ----Payment table has 2 rows showing 2 Payments
    After executing this sql statement below, I get 6 rows:
    select inv.invoice_amount,pymt.payment_amount from invoice inv,payment pymt where inv.bank_id=pymt.bank_id;
    How can I show 3 rows for Invoice and 2 for Payment..?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    So you want
    the 1st invoice to appear side-by-side with the 1st payment,
    the 2nd invoice to appear side-by-side with the 2nd payment,
    the nth invoice to appear side-by-side with the nth payment.
    But, if there are an uneqaul numner of payments and invoices, all the payments and all the invoices must still be shown, alone on a row if necessary.
    That sounds like a job for FULL OUTER JOIN.
    Use the analytic ROW_NUMBER fucntion to determine which is the 1st, 2nd, ..., nth row in each table, for each bank.
    WITH     invoice_plus_r_num     AS
         SELECT     bank_id, bank_name
         ,      invoice_amount
         ,     ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY  bank_id, bank_name
                                   ORDER BY          invoice_id
                           )         AS r_num
         FROM    invoice
    ,     payment_plus_r_num     AS
         SELECT     bank_id, bank_name
         ,      payment_amount
         ,     ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY  bank_id, bank_name
                                   ORDER BY          payment_id
                           )         AS r_num
         FROM    payment
    SELECT       NVL (i.bank_id,   p.bank_id)          AS bank_id
    ,       NVL (i.bank_name, p.bank_name)     AS bank_name
    ,       i.invoice_amount
    ,       p.payment_amount
    FROM          invoice_plus_r_num     i
    FULL OUTER JOIN     payment_plus_r_num     p  ON   i.bank_id     = p.bank_id
                                        AND     i.bank_name     = p.bank_name
                                AND     i.r_num          = p.r_num
    ORDER BY  bank_id     -- you can use column aliases here
    ,       bank_name
    ,       NVL (i.r_num, p.r_num)
    ;You mentioned something about accounts, but didn't include that in the CREATE TABLE statements. You'll probably want to add that wherever I used bank_id and bank_name, above.
    Are invoce and payment actually views, rather than tables? If not, you should have a separate bank table, and only include the bank_id in the other tables.
    I hope this answers your question.
    If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables, and also post the results you want from that data.
    Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
    Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

  • How to fetch rows from a table like search engines do?

    Is it possible to fetch rows from a table like Google does? I want to fetch row number 20-40 after the select has ordered the rows.
