How do I search for a value in an Excel sheet using ActixeX

I am already accessing my excel sheets however I need to be able to search the sheet for a certain value and return the row/cell location. Is there an activeX control that can do this?

You will need a reference to the range to search. This can be the entire sheet if you wish. Just wire that to the method node Find. Here you can specify all of the typical search options. Wire your string or number into the What input. For the what to LOOKAT value, use -4163 for Value and -4123 for formulas.
The reference returned is the range of the found value. You can wire it into the property node Row and Column to get the location.

How do i search for a string in a txt file using java??

How do i search for a string in a txt file using java??
could you please help thanks

Regular expressinos work just fine, especially when
searching for patterns. But they seem to be impying
it's a specific group of characters they're looking
for, and indexOf() is much faster than a regex.If he's reading from a file, the I/O time will likely swamp any performance hit that regex introduces. I think contains() (or indexOf() if he's not on 5.0 yet) is preferable to regex just because it's simpler. (And in the case of contains(), the name makes for a very clear, direct mapping between your intent and the code that realizes it.)

If they've implemented the password system correctly there probably isn't a way of getting the password at all.

How do I search for a value in a db?

I have a mysql-db which is connected to a java-program.
It is an applet with a JTextField and a JButton.
When I write something in the JTextField and presses the JButton I want to search for the word in my database and return some other values.
This works properly if I write the exact String.
How shall I do if I want to be able to only write the beginning of the word and retrieve all values that begins with these letters?
Instead of writing "ABC123" I would be able to write "ABC" and retrieve all values that begins with ABC.
Any suggestions?

Yep,
String sql ="select * from tablename where VALUE like '"+textfield.getText()+"%'";That should do.

How can I search for files on an external file server (using Linux)?

The configuration is that the mac min is connected (with other Windows XP computers) in an ethernet network. The file server is the only one running Linux. The mini mac has no problems to connect to the server and read the files, write files and create folders etc. But, because the file server is quite big, there are a lot of files and folders (size estimate in total some 350 GB). In a finder window I tried to seach a file name, but the mac does not give any result. The mouse cursor does not visibly change into occupied or so. Searching for a file on the mac is no problem as we know.
Any help or hint what kind of program / setting needs to be used to do this would be appreciated.
thanks

Use the Find command (menu Edit) and in criteria at the right side is a plus sign to add another criteria and set it to your custom wishes.
make a choice in results and you should be OK

How do I search for common values across multiple columns?

I am coordinating a schedule with 5 people across hundreds of dates, and have columns A-E filled with many rows of dates. How can I make a new column that displays all the dates (values) that each person (column) has in common with all the others?
Is there a simple formula for this?
thanks!

Scarampella,
A second table can be used to find your matching dates.
Here's an example:
The formula in Matching Dates is:
=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(A,Table 1 :: A, 0)+MATCH(A,Table 1 :: B, 0)+MATCH(A,Table 1 :: C, 0)+MATCH(A,Table 1 :: D, 0)+MATCH(A,Table 1 :: E, 0)), "", A)
Basically, I look for matches in each person's list of dates, and if any fail to produce a match with the date being examined, the result is a miss, and if all match, it's a hit. You can sort the result to get a short list of matches without spaces.
Regards,
Jerry

How to consume the sharepoint online Library data to Excel sheet using ODATA connection. That ODATA connection file resides in "SharePoint Online -Data Connections Library"

I have created a OData Connection to my Library and published to SharePoint online site.
To refresh the data, property is set like "Refresh when opening file"
When I downloaded and open the file, the new data is consumed to me successfully because this ODF file referenced to my local computer
If any other user downloads the file its not opening as reference file points to my local machine.
I want to keep this ODF file in "Data connections" Library (or in any site/Library) and establish the connection to the excel sheet. so that any one can use the ODF file.
or else any other alternative to use ODF file globally and get the SP Library data to excel ?

Hi,
it will use the connection in the ADF library. I recommend though that you not save database connect information in the ADF library. Instead:
- define the ADF BC model to use JDBC data sources
- In the ADF library, configure it to only contain the data source name
- In the view project (the workspace) configure the database connection exposed by the library
When the library is imported, check Application Resources --> Connections and right click on the imported connection name to configure it

Searching for a string in an excel file and return true if found.

How can I search for a string in an excel file and return true if found, its location and also a value.

The problem with searching an excel file is that it contains a header. It would be easiest if you just read the file into a LabVIEW array and search the array. This way you can also get the index and the value of the location.

How to search for a value in an iterator in Jdev 10.1.2?

Hi!
I need to search an iterator named "PermitYrIterator1" for a year value (e.g. 2009) that is stored in bindings.Yr in my jsp. How do I do this in my jsp's DataForwardAction Code) in Jdev 10.1.2?
I need this in my "Create page." I need to search for this value because I want to check if I should re-execute the "PermitYrIterator1" so that it shows the newly added year in bindings.Yr or not. If bindings.Yr is found in the iterator then I do not need to re-execute the iterator. But if the newly entered year cannot be found then I need to re-execute the iterator.
I hope you can help me immediately! Thanks!

How to search for multiple values with Bex Prompts

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to search for multiple values at the same time with Bex Prompts instead of searching one value at a time (please see the screen shot below). I searched the forum couldn't find any relevant answers. please let me know how to achieve?
Thanks,
Charvi.

Hi Charvi,
You can use wild card search to ensure you get multiple similar values listed as search output.use * for multiple characters and ? for single character.
For Example, Ravi * would result you all employees with first name as Ravi
You can use various search formats such as * Ravi * and * Ravi and Ra?? etc.
Thanks

How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms?

Hello all,
How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms? This might sound trivial but I have a problem with a PL/SQL Validation that I have written.
I have one select list (P108_CLUSTER_ID) and one Text field (P108_PRIVATE_IP). I made P108_CLUSTER_ID to return null value when nothing is selected and assumed P108_PRIVATE_IP to return null value too when nothign is entered in the text field.
All that I need is to validate if P108_PRIVATE_IP is entered when a P108_CLUSTER_ID is selected. i.e it is mandatory to enter Private IP when a cluster is seelcted and following is my Pl/SQL code
Declare
v_valid boolean;
Begin
IF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
v_valid := TRUE;
ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
v_valid := TRUE;
ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
v_valid := FALSE;
ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
v_valid := FALSE;
END IF;
return v_valid;
END;
My problem is it is returning FALSE for all the cases.It works fine in SQL Command though..When I tried to Debug and use Firebug, I found that Text fields are not stored a null by default but as empty strings "" . Now I tried modifying my PL/SQL to check Private_IP against an empty string. But doesn't help. Can someone please tell me how I need to proceed.
Thanks

TS4006 My Iphone has been stolen. I have the IMEI number. How do I search for it?

My Iphone has been stolen. I have the IMEI number. How do I search for it?

I'm afraid the IMEI number won't do you any good: its principal value is in enabling your service provider to block the phone.
In order for your iPhone to be locatable you must have enabled the 'Find My Phone' app on it prior to losing it, and it must be on, not wiped, and able to connect to a network. Unless all these conditions are true there is no way of locating it.
