How do I reference a table in a cell so that when I type in a word, other cells in that row are automatically filled in?

I'm making a cheat sheet for my fantasy football league. To this point I have separate sheets that list players at various positions (the sheets are characterized by the positions they cover i.e. quarterback/running back etc). I also have at the end a table that lists a team abbreviation (identical to how I would reference the team in the other sheets) with that team's bye week and schedule listed.
I want to be able to type a team name next to a player's name and have that team's information be filled into the cells on the same row, by referencing that table I have at the end.
Can anyone help? Very much appreciated. Thanks.

Take a look at VLOOKUP in the iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide.

    Hi Vickey, S,
    Sorry for the delay in response. Is it happening with all the files?
    Also, please write the steps you are taking to type in the document.
    You might try uninstalling and re installing the Reader in case it is happening with all the files.
    URL to install the Adobe Reader is Adobe - Adobe Reader download - All versions
    Thanks,

  • How would I make it so that when "deleting" an image I can make it so that the delete key does it or a button I put on the application?

    How would I make it so that when "deleting" an image I can make it so that the delete key does it or a button I put on the application?
    I want it so that I can use either a button on the designer window or the delete key. I know how to do the or part but the trouble I'm having is coding the button in.
    if (LastImageClicked != null && (e.Key == Key.Delete || Button))
    This is the code that I have in the format I'm looking for I just don't know how to do it. Thanks for your help!

    There are a number of things which are unclear about your question.
    I'll tell you one way to approach this though.
    Handle Window.PreviewKeyDown.
    <Window
    Window.PreviewKeyDown="Mainwindow_PreviewKeyDown"
    Code behind
    private void Mainwindow_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    if (e.Key == Key.Delete)
    File.Delete("p001.jpg");
    I don't know enough about what you mean by LastImageClicked  but you need some way of knowing which path you are going to delete.
    Then you might well have a problem if it's showing in an image control.
    You will need to copy the picture off disk into a new bitmapimage object.
    If you just do
    <Image Source="p001.jpg"
    Then that image will grab the file and you won't be able to delete it - you'll  get an error.
    In my experimental code p001.jpg is set as content copy always so it ends up next to the exe in the bin when the solution compiles.
    You would probably want a full path to a file there.
    Hope that helps.

  • How do I reference multiple tables in SSAS Data Source View Named Calculation functionality?

    Hi SSASers - 
    On the Data Source View node of SSAS Visual Studio Interface, I want to create a named calculation that references multiple tables. Something like: CASE WHEN tableA.Column1 = 'Y' Then tableB.Column1 ELSE tableB.Column2 End, but the compiler throws an error
    here "Deferred prepare could not be completed". 
    What is the syntax for referencing multiple tables on this node or how else can multiple tables be used to create a calculated value in SSAS? I'm new to SSAS and so far have been building big views and building calculations this way. Another option is the
    Calculation tab off the cube node but this calculation will need to be based off of dimensions AND measures so please provide a syntax example here also. 
    Thanks in advance!
    Carl

    Thanks Jiri! The named query functionality off the Data Source View node is exactly what I was looking for - it's just a view on the SSAS side of things instead of the relational dbase.
    Sorry for the delayed answer verification - got pulled into something else last week. Carl

  • How to make reference wbs custom data carried to new wbs when using custom tab and custom table

    I created a custom tab for WBS elements by using user exit CNEX0007 and custom screen and put a table control in it.
    As table control's data has to be stored in a table I could not use append structure of PRPS.
    When I used reference wbs, PRPS custom fields were carried also but I could not find any solution to fill table control data with reference table.
    I need to get correspondence between reference number's and new id's key data. Is there any exit, enh. that I can store the relationship.

    Solved...
    I've used an enhancement point in include LCNPB_MF38.  CJWB_SUBTREE_COPY exports a table called newnumbers. Here you can find correspondances between copied WBS and new WBS.
    Exported table to memory id.
    And imported it in another user-exit. You can use proper user exit for your need.  ( EXIT_SAPLCNAU_002)

  • How do I reference another table value in Pages?

    Hi there,
    I have a quote set up in Pages with a number of tables that refer to different products.  At the end, I want a summary table that refers to the values of each of these separate tables, but want to make sure it updates automatically if one of the product costs change?
    Is this possible?
    Cheers,

    You can't, only Numbers can do that.
    At most you could have a faked set of tables, by hiding intervening cells, but making it actually just one table.
    You can also see what you can do by inserting Numbers tables into a Pages document. I've only briefly played with Numbers Charts and Tables so you'd need to look up the UesrGuides for both Numbers and Pages for how to manage them.
    People neglect Numbers as the first solution for shorter published pieces like quotes. It has quite a lot of DTP features and you can keep your internal workings and notes for the quote on a separate sheet that the client doesn't see.

  • How do you reference the main timeline of swf1 from swf2 when swf2 is loaded into swf1?

    on this link          http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/918/cpsid_91887.html
    I found this script, but I can not use it can anyone help me
    // create a variable to reference swf1's main timeline
    var swf1Main_mc:MovieClip;  // this assumes that swf1 is a movieclip.
    // create your listener to ensure this loaded swf has been added to the display list and can therefore obtain a
    // reference to its main timeline (which is always the main timeline of the loading swf).
    this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, initF);
    function initF(e:Event):void{
        swf1Main_mc = MovieClip(this.root);

    You don't make it clear what event finish is for. But let's assume that your MC is being loaded from the clip that you're referring to as root. In the main Document Class of that swf, you'd have
    protected var customSwf:CustomSwf;//customSwf is the Class that defines your functionInSwf1protected function someFunction():void {
         var loader:Loader = new loader();
         loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE onLoaderLoaded);
         //rest of your loader loading code here
    protected function onLoaderLoaded(e:Event):void {
          //add to display list (you already know how to do, so I'm not writing the code)
         EventDispatcher(e.target).removeEventListener(Event.Complete, onLoaderLoaded);
         //if you had a legitimate need for path (which you don't) in mcExternal, you'd set it like this:
         this.mcExternal.path = LoaderInfo(e.target).content as MovieClip;
          //this is what you actually need to care about to do this correctly
          customSwf = LoaderInfo(e.target).content as CustomSwf;
    Now, the Class that you apply to the library symbol you're using for mcExternal should have code similar to this:
    protected function fEvent(e:Event):void {
         dispatchEvent(new Event('giveYourEventADescriptiveNameBasedOnWhatYoureReallyDoingHere', true));
    back in your main document Class:
    //should probably call from the constructor or somewhere early in the process
    protected function init():void {
         //use your real event name--your code isn't expressive enough I could guess a good name
         addEventListener('giveYourEventADescriptiveNameBasedOnWhatYoureReallyDoingHere', onEventHappened);
    protected function onEventHappened(e:Event):void {
         customSwf.customFunctioninSwf1();
         customSwf.changeVisualState();//let custom swf change alpha and change the frame #
    To the untrained I, this looks like about the same amount of code and slightly more trouble, but changing the design like this will make it much more tolerant of the changes that nearly all clients will want after you've built version 1. mcExternal's code doesn't have to change at all if swf1 changes, and your root Class already knows abotu swf1 anyway, since it's doing the loading, so having it work with it a little more doesn't hurt.
    Moving the change of visual state into your custom swf means that changes in that swf won't affect your main document Class, though you will probably have to recompile the main document unless you go to using an Interface (a topic for another day).

  • When I type in search words in the google box and then drop down to the search that matches what I want, and click on it, it does absolutely nothing. It used to complete the search, how do I get it to complete the search?

    Here is an example:
    I type Denver Dum in the google box.
    It gives me several options, one is Denver Dumb Friends League, which is what I want. I bring the cursor to Denver Dumb Friends League and click. It does nothing. The google box still has Denver dum in it. The only way to get a search to be completed is if I type in the whole phrase and hit enter. How do I get it to search using just part of a phrase? It used to do this before I upgraded to the newer version of firefox. Thanks!

  • Dashed Table borders do not render correctly when PDF created from MS word 2013

    I have a defined format for many documents which have all been created in MS word 2007.  Never any problem creating PDFs of  these using ADOBE XI Pro.
    Updated to MS 2013 and now when converting the same doc to PDF all dashed borders around tables render as solid lines. The only time they render correctly is if I PRINT to PDF.  Printing to PDF is not an option as I create batches of many documents at one time, so would be to time consuming.  This was an issue when i considered upgrading 2007 to 2010 a couple of years ago, so caused me to delay upgrade.. upgrade is now required.
    I have a sample of a document if required.
    thanks

    Just as a test, have you tried the MS plugin for PDF creation? I have found with other versions of WORD and Acrobat that PDF Maker and the MS plugin can both fill in dots and dashes on vector graphics (basically what the border is) and yet it comes out correctly with printing to the Adobe PDF printer. Unfortunately I do not have a solution. In my case, it seemed to be related to the vector graphic itself (I could import it to InkScape or other vector graphic tool and save to EMF and it then worked fine. It may be something that MS themselves have messed up in OFFICE 2013. Good luck.
