How do I reference a cell from within a condition in Numbers?

I am trying to use the SUMIF function to sum values within an array IF corresponding values in the array are greater than a value in a corresponding cell. So:
___A____B____C
5/23/12 1
5/24/12 2 May 24, 2012
5/25/12 3
5/26/12 4
Here is the formula I am trying to use:
=SUMIF(A1:A4,">"C2,B1:B4)
This gives me a syntax error. In Microsoft Excel I could get the result I want with the following formula:
=SUMIF(A1:A4,">"&C2,B1:B4)
You need that & to "build" a condition statement in Excel. But I don't even see the option to type in a & in a formula in Numbers.
Is this possible in Numbers and if so, how?
Thanks very much for any assistance.

OK, I solved it. The formula DOES work if you include the & character in Numbers, and that character is in fact sitting right in front of you in the upper left part of the text input area--you just have to toggle the "operators" section of the input area once to get it. Sorry to bug everyone.

I want to reference a cell from another table and fill it with text

I I have several tables that update each other with data from the previous one. These tables are identical and follow each other by date. In each table is a cell (B1) where a persons name goes. the cell (B2) references another cell from a previous dated table. Some days, consecutively, no name is entered in to cell B1. I want cell B2 to always refer back to the most recent table with a name is cell B1. How can this be done?
I have written this formula (applied to cell B2 of this example) already: IF(Day 1::B1="","",IF(Day 1::B1≥"",Day 1::B1)) but it only references the previous days table and stops there. Some days nothing is inputed into cell B1 causing causing the following days table cell B2 to show "0".

"I am having trouble getting the formulas you suggested to work. I am not sure where the problem is coming from. Could you look at the following spreadsheet and tell me where I am going wrong? The following pic shows Day 1 and AUX tables. In Day 1 cell B1 a Drivers name is entered. As you can see by the formula that you gave the B2 is for "Product" not the drivers name "David"."
Hi br,
The formulas provided above apply directly to the set of tables shown with them. In each of these tables, the target cell, containing the name of the driver for that day is cell B2 on the table for that day.
For Day 1, the driver is Huey, found in cell B2 of Table 1, and the cell reference to retrieve the information from that cell is =Table 1::B2
The formula in B2 of Aux uses INDIRECT to build that cell reference from the fixed text string "Table ", the calculated value ROW()-1, and the text string "::B2"
ROW() returns the number of the row in which the function sits. In B2, that's row 2, and ROW() returns 2. -1 subtracts 1 from that value, leaving 1. In B2, ROW()-1 returns 1.
The ampersand is the concatenation operator. It joins the value before it to the value following it. The result is a text string. in the INDIRECT part of the formula, there are two & operators, one after "Table ", the other after ROW()-1.
"Table " & ROW()-1 & "::B2" with the result of ROW()-1 as the value between the two text strings.
"Table " & 1 & "::B2" = "Table 1::B2"
INDIRECT( ) takes that text and converts it to the cell address that it represents.
B2: =IF(LEN(INDIRECT("Table "&ROW()-1&"::B2"))<1,"",INDIRECT("Table "&ROW()-1&"::B2"))
The first instance on the string in the formula is a test to see if there is anything in the target cell. If not, the formula returns a null string. If there is at least 1 character there, the second instance of INDIRECT is called on to return the name to B2 of the table Aux.
Compare your formula below:
B4: =IF(LEN(INDIRECT("Day 3"&ROW()-1&"::B2"))<1,"",INDIRECT("Day 3"&ROW()-1&"::B2"))
As shown, this is the formula in B4 of your Aux table. In Row 4, ROW() returns 4, and ROW()-1 returns 3.
So the three elements of the cell address constructed in INDIRECT are "Day 3", 3, and "::B2"
The cell being addressed is "Day 33::B2", cell B2 on the table named Day 33.
The error results from there being no table with that name.
The fix (to the table part of the reference) is to change the first text string to "Day " (including the space after the word Day).
The fix to replace Product with the driver name is to change "::B2" to ::B1"
To fit the names of your day tables and the location of the driver's name on each, your formula in B2 should read:
B2: =IF(LEN(INDIRECT("Day "&ROW()-1&"::B1"))<1,"",INDIRECT("Day "&ROW()-1&"::B1"))

Frank,
I tried to find some examples/samples on how to create CollectionModel for a table component but not successful.
Can you clarify the following ?
1. "CollectionModel" is referenced only by af:table attributes "value", "selectedRowKeys" and "selectionListener".
The rest of af:table attributes such as "rows", "fetchSize" used to reference the iterator binding in the binding container via the EL expression "#{bindings.VOIteratorBinding.xxx} .
What should I replace that EL expression with?
2. I heck out the bean method to create the CollectionModel as following, is it close to what you mean?
public void initBusinessDataDashboardView() {
OperationBinding operation = BeanUtils.getOperationBinding("getPanelBusinessData");
Map params = operation.getParamsMap();
Key panelKey = getPanelInfoView().getKey();
params.put("panelKey", panelKey);
params.put("maximizedView", false);
panelView = (ViewObject)operation.execute();
// Heck code to create CollectionModel
RowSet rowSet = panelView.getRowSet();
ArrayList rowList = new ArrayList();
while (rowSet.hasNext()) {
rowList.add(rowSet.next());
model = new ChildPropertyTreeModel(rowList, null);
// To be used to set up af:table value, selectRowKeys, selectionListener via EL expr #{backingBeanScope.MyBean.model.xxx}
public CollectionModel getModel() {
return model;
Am I on the right track?

Is it possible to reference one cell from the value of another?

Is it possible to reference one cell from the value of another e.g.
value of b1 = value of c(value of a1)
So if a1 = 3 then b1 = c3, if a1 = 5 then b1 = c5.

Excellent!
Thanks Wayne. Just saved me many hours and a headache.
Works like a dream.
Thank you for your succinct (and accurate) answer.

I must say that this is another poor bit of work by Apple. Numbers is not as useful in some basic areas as Excel.
That is very frustrating, as I also need this ability to link between different files.
If you feel that Numbers is not a suitable tool for what you wish/need to do, then use a tool that is suitable to that job.

How to change the default directory from within SQL*Plus ?

Hello,
I want to change the default directory directly from within SQL*Plus to be able to launch my command files with simple instructions like :
@my_command.sql
If I haven't launched SQL*Plus from the directory containing the file my_command.sql, how do I change the default directory to the directory of my command files ?
I've searched through the Oracle documentation, there's no SET DEFAULTDIR or something like that. When I do a SHOW ALL, there's no variable containing the default directory.
If you have an idea...

You cannot directly do that, but you can use @@ instead of @ to run subscripts in the same directory as the superscript

How to refer to enclosing instance from within the member class?

Hi
How to refer to the enclosing instance from within the member class?
I have the following code :
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class MyDialog extends Dialog
     public MyDialog(Frame fr,boolean modal)
          super(fr,modal);
          addWindowListener(new MyWindowAdapter());
     public void paint(Graphics g)
          g.drawString("Modal Dialogs are sometimes needed...",10,10);
     class MyWindowAdapter extends WindowAdapter
          public void windowClosing(WindowEvent evt)
               //MyDialog.close(); // is this right?
In the above code, how can I call the "close()" method of the "Dialog" class (which is the enclosing class) from the inner class?
Thanks in advance.
Senthil.

Hi Senthil,
You can directly call the outer class method. Otherwise use the following way MyDialog.this.close(); (But there is no close() method in Dialog!!)
If this is not you expected, give me more details about problem.

How do I reference a cell in a matrix that performs the aggregate?

Assuming I have a Matrix such as:
Year
Customer Name SUM(sales amount)
... and the text control the aggregate takes place in (the sum function) is named "matrix1_tb_sum"...
After the report is executed, there will be a column for each year. Let's say 2013 and 2014 both return.
What will be the name of the text control for each year? If I reference "ReportItems!matrix1_tb_sum.Value" from any scope it returns the value of the "right most" column grouping. How do I reference other column groupings?
My goal is to add out-of-grouping columns to the right to show additional data, but I don't want to re-type the formulas. For example, I would add an out-of-group column to the right and add something like:
=ReportItems!matrix1_tb_sum[2014].Value - ReportItems!matrix1_tb_sum[2013].Value
...to show the difference between the two columns without making a SUM IIF.

Hi Mini Button,
Base on your description, you have a matrix in your report which you want to add an aggregation field of the Sales Amount for each year and finally add an column to show the difference between two years. Right?
In Reporting Service, if we want to compare values of two adjacent columns in a matrix, the best way is using custom code to deal with the logic. I have tested in our local environment. In this scenario, we can compare the current value with previous value.
The difference value is always along with columns generated. So we suggest put this column inside of group instead of appending them at the end of the matrix. In this column, we can call the function defined in the custom code. Here are steps and screenshots
for your reference:
Custom code:
Put the custom code into report:
Private queueLength As Integer = 2
Private queueSum As Double = 0
Private queueFull As Boolean = False
Private idChange As String=""
Dim queue As New System.Collections.Generic.Queue(Of Integer)
Public Function CumulativeQueue(ByVal currentValue As Integer,id As String) As Object
Dim removedValue As Double = 0
If idChange <> id then
ClearQueue()
idChange = id
queueSum = 0
queueFull = False
CumulativeQueue(currentValue,id)
Else
If queue.Count >= queueLength Then
removedValue = queue.Dequeue()
End If
queueSum += currentValue
queueSum -= removedValue
queue.Enqueue(currentValue)
If queue.Count < queueLength Then
Return Nothing
ElseIf queue.Count = queueLength And queueFull = False Then
queueFull = True
Return (queueSum-currentValue-currentValue)
Else
Return (queueSum-currentValue-currentValue)
End If
End If
End Function
public function ClearQueue()
Dim i as Integer
Dim n as Integer = Queue.Count-1
for i=n To 0 Step-1
queue.Dequeue()
next i
End function
Click the report Properties and click the “Code” than add above custom code in it, click ok.
Create a matrix based on your information. Put expression into corresponding positions:
Expression in the first row: =IIF(Previous(Fields!Year.Value) is nothing,"",IIF(Previous(Fields!Year.Value) is nothing,1,Previous(Fields!Year.Value))&" - "&Fields!Year.Value)
Expression in the second row: =Code.CumulativeQueue(Fields!SalesAmount.Value,Fields!CustomerName.Value))
Expression in the third row: =Code.CumulativeQueue(sum(Fields!SalesAmount.Value),Fields!CustomerName.Value)
Note : You may need to modify the custom code and expression based on the data type in your dataset.
Save and preview. It looks like below:

How do with change table cells from staticText1 to button1 in run time?

I have two question:
first: I think change table's cells from staticText to button in run time?
how do?
second: I think change table column's order in run time?how do?
ex:
=============change before===========
name age
wtu 22
=============chnage after=============
age name
22 wtu
thanks

Try something like this:
1. Drop a Table. By default it has three columns.
2. Drop a button inside the third column. Set its id property to buttonInColumn3, and set its rendered property to false.
3. Drop another button, this time outside the table. Set its id property to buttonOutsideTable.
4. Double-click the buttonOutsideTable and make the method look as follows:
public String buttonOutsideTable_action() {
//switch the first two columns
List cols = tableRowGroup1.getChildren();
Object col = cols.remove(0);
cols.add(1, col);
//toggle between showing staticText3 and buttonInColumn3 (in the third column)
staticText3.setRendered(!staticText3.isRendered());
buttonInColumn3.setRendered(!buttonInColumn3.isRendered());
return null;
5. Run the application and click the button outside the table several times.

How to edit GRUB boot options from within Arch.

Hello!
I'm having a problem with scanlines (both in X and tty), and I think that the solution is the vga= boot option. I, however cannot edit the GRUB boot options from within GRUB, because the commands go off my screen (overscan.)
I was wondering if there is a way to edit the default GRUB options from withing Arch. I have GRUB on /dev/sdb0 and chainload with the windows bootloader, it it matters.
Thanks,

How to execute a packaged function from within DML

Hi
can someone explain in how many ways can we execute a packaged function from within a DML statement.
examples will help.
Thanks

Hi,
There's no difference between using functions in DML and using functions in any other SQL statement. Almost any place where a literal is allowed, you can have any kind of expression, including a an expression involving one or more functions.
For example, in
UPDATE table_x
SET column_a = 0
WHERE column_b > SYSDATE;You could use functions instead of 0, column_b, or SYSDATE. (Actually, SYSDATE is a function.) You can not use functions instead of table_x or column_a (since it is to the left of the "=" sign).

How to execute a Perl program from within a Java prog

How do I execute a Perl program from within a Java program.
Lets say the Perl program that I want to execute is 'abc'. Now, 'abc' requires some input that I want to give it from within the Java program. How do I do it?
And finally, how do I execute that Perl program from within the Java program.
If I execute the Perl program alone then I do it in the following way -
perl abc inp1 inp2 inp3
where inp1, inp2, inp3 are inputs to the Perl program. I will not be able to change or modify the coding of the Perl program - 'abc' as I do not have access to its code. Its a kind of an application whose usual method of execution is in the above shown way. So, how do I execute 'abc' from within a Java program.
