How do I select non consecutive columns

I have been working in numbers and Excel and need to select some non-consecutive rows or columns and just can't figure out how to do it. I know how in Windows. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Maggie

After the initial selection, command-click on each additional row or column.

Select non-consecutive text

How do I select non-consecutive text in V5.1? I have a new macbook air and am new to apple. This is such a simple thing, surely there is a way.

Yeah!
Some people seem to just bulldoggedly want to head deeper into the swamp.
I was just at the local PC User Group yesterday, listening to their tales of woe.
I carefully and clearly explained why they had their problems, then the few simple steps to avoid them, but they think they HAVE to use IE, they HAVE to do all the complicated and silly things that PC users do.
Down to buying an expensive replacement battery for an ancient laptop, with faulty keys, that was worth less than the battery.
Everything else doesn't even register. I can see how these PC service centres manage to suck all that money from the poor schmucks.

How can i select the next column instead of next row when press enter key

I need to know how can i select the next column instead of next row when i press the enter key.By default ,when i press enter key the next row is selected and the column remain unchanged but I wants opposite that is the row should remain unchanged but column index will changed.
Thanks to all.

Well, the right arrow key will already move you to the next column, so the easiest way to do this is to modify the InputMap to have the Enter key invoke the same Action as the right arrow key.
You can search the forum for my "Table Actions" (without the space) example that will show you how to do this.

How do you extract non consecutive pages from a pdf document. I can highlight in thumbnails but only extract consecutive.

How do you extract non consecutive pages from a pdf document?
I see its easy to do it with consecutive pages by highlighting thumbnails then 'extract' but this does not allow for non consecutive pages.
Thank you

After highlighting the pages you can drag them and drop them somewhere,
like on the desktop, and a new file will be created with just those pages.
If highlighting the pages is not feasible, or too tricky to do, then a
script can be used where you specify which pages to extract and the script
extract them to a new file.

How do I select NONE as my credit card info on my iPhone 4S?

How do I select NONE as my credit card payment on my iPhone 4S?

The only way is to create an Apple ID to start with without a credit card. You cannot change to none after creating. You need to follow these steps for that. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534

Select non-zero columns

if we have data in the following format:
c1 c2 c3 c4
0 234 0 12
0 111 0 11
0 280 0 38
0 387 0 49
the above no.of columns can be variable
how can we select only non-zero columns - c2 and c4

Hi,
This requires dynamic SQL.
To find if table_x.c1 contains anything except 0 (incluiding NULL), you could say:
SELECT 'TABLE_X', 'COL1' FROM dual WHERE EXISTS (SELECT NULL FROM table_x WHERE NVL (c1, 1) != 0);What you have to do, using dynamic SQL, is write a SELECT statement like that for every column you want to test.
So you'll need a query like
SELECT 'SELECT '''
        || table_name
        || ''', '''
        || column_name
        || ''' FROM dual WHERE EXISTS (SELECT NULL FROM '
        || table_name
        || ' WHERE NVL ('
        || column_name
        || ', 1) != 0);' -- Omit ';' in PL/SQL
FROM    all_tab_cols
WHERE   ... -- whatever you needIn SQL*Plus, you can write all of these statements to a SPOOL file, and then execute it by saying @spool_file.
In PL/SQL, you would use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to run each statement.

Select non-consecutive files using keyboard

Hi - I am trying to select several files in Finder using keyboard only. Sort of thing you would do with the CTRL key in Windows. I want to select several songs to open in my iTunes, but not all of them. And the songs are not listed one after another. I don't want to use the mousepad as it tends to open one of the selected file if I press the mousepad a tad too long. I just want to quickly scroll with arrow keys and mark the ones I want to select with another key. How can this not be possible on OS X?

Thanks, it's just not helpful. Sometimes you happen to accidentally double-click, epsecially when you are selecting a large number of files. The problem here was that I was trying to select songs from my folder to open in iTunes so that I would transfer them to my iPhone afterwards in one go. The moment I would accidentally double-click wth the trackpad, the entire selection that I had made would open in iTunes and start playing, which meant that I would have to switch to iTunes and press pause. I did not want to put the computer on silence because I had some other music playing on YouTube at the same time. Overall, it's a disturbance. If someone at Apple were smarter, they would have allowed for a simle selection of non-consecutive files by keyboard, as Windows does it. Scrolling and selecting with the trackpad is not very convenient in this case, because you have to use the trackpad and the keyboard (CMD) at the same time. In a situation like this, a user should be able to perform this operation with keyboard only, simply because it is more convenient that way. If Windows with its operating system has been allowing to do this for ages, Apple with its ambition to be smarter and easier than PC should have been able to tackle this problem long time ago.

Select non-consecutive days in Calendar input

Hi Experts,
I designed a form in WD and have a requirement, where I need to show up a calendar display of months in which an user should be allowed to select only non-consecutive days from it.
Also I need to get all those selected days at run-time.
Is it possible?? I know that calendar is a standard input of date UI element and totally confused as how I can restrict an user to select only non-consecutive days.
Please clarify and help me in this.
BR,
RAM.

Hi RAM,
Unfortunately, with the date navigator ui element, we cannot select multiple dates except the date ranges.
Work around solution:
I suggest you to go for row repeater, in which you can place date navigator ui element and user can add multiple rows: also you he can input dates by selecting single dates.
Here you can also restrict the user to select only non-consecutive dates.
Pls refer the wiki for an example:
steps to create row repeater ui element - Web Dynpro ABAP - SCN Wiki
Try to convince the user with this or you can also for a table with single row.
Hope this helps you.
Regards,
Rama

Selecting non-consecutive text in Safari text boxes?

I've been trying to find a way to highlight/select different ranges of text in Safari without luck; I know that selecting consecutive text can be done by holding down "shift", but is there any way to do it with non-consecutive text? TextEdit is able to do this -- I can select a word in one paragraph, hold down the "command" key, and then separately highlight a word or sentence in another paragraph.

How to access a non-database column in a report?

Hi all,
I would like to populate a column in my report, which is not based (in Oracle Forms, it is a "non-database item").
But I don't know how to access it. Let's say the alias of the column is "column", I tried to do it with #column#, but it's not valid.
Does anyone know a solution here?
Thanks a lot,
Dovik

Dovik
Where do you need to access the column value ? Are other columns of the report accessible from where you are trying to access the value of this 'non database' column ?

How do you select none as a payment option?

I want to delete a credit card and select none as a payment option , but iTunes no longer allows none as a payment option.

Once your account has been established you can remove credit card details as outlined above.
When creating a new Apple ID it is possible to do so without requiring a credit card provided you go through the hoops described here: HT2534 - Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account without a credit card. This only works as you create the Apple ID.
If you've already created the Apple ID you want to use (you needed one to sign in here) but iTunes now requires a credit/debit card before it will give you access, even to free content, then there is no workaround. The card is used to verify residency in the country whose store you are trying to use. Once that has been done you can remove the credit card details as stated and rely on pre-paid cards or re-enter your details only when you want to make a purchase.

How do you select a clob column in an SQL query report?

I must be missing something fundamental as there is practically no help on this on the forum.
All I want to do is ...
select numcol,aclob_col from table
in an SQL Query report.
Sounds easy??? I get no data appearing in the clob column. Doesn't work in SQL Workshop either. What's the catch??
regards
Paul P

Paul,
It works when I try it. What version of Application Express, what is the table DDL, the exact query, and how much data is in the clob columns?

How to print selected non-adjacent pages?

I need to print out a few hundred pages using both sides of the paper (as my printer doesn't do 2-sided). Before, in Word for Mac, I could print a large range of discontinuous uneven pages all at once (selecting a range of 1, 3, 5, etc).-- and simply turn the pile of pages to print out the evens (2,4,6 etc). Very frustrated now since "upgrading" to Lion 10.7.2. as it means not only that hundreds of my Word for Mac documents are unreadable, but also that I can't print large ranges og discontinuous pages in Pages. PLease help -- I'll go crazy -- and wear out my printer drawer -- if I have to manually turn each and every page...for hundreds and hundreds of pages....

Even if you don't have two sided printing, check to see if you don't have a manuel setting for it.
Or, you could print all odd pages, then even:

How to take a non metrics column from one fact to different subject area details level?

I have a requirement in OBIEE ,
I have two fact tables W_AP_INV_DIST_F and W_PURCH_COST_F. In my subject area I am using all facts from W_AP_INV_DIST_F table, But I need one more column as per client's requirement. I searched the column RELEASE_NUM found it in W_PURCH_COST_F. So I have to pull RELEASE_NUM into my subject area, which is having W_AP_INV_DIST_F and couple of dimensions.
I have tried directly pull this column FROM W_PURCH_COST_F (physical layer), and dragged it into one dimension "Dim-AP_INVOICE_Details", here already a LTS "Fact_W_AP_INV_DIST_F" available. In Presentation layer I need to use "RELEASE_NUM" in "Invoice Details" presentation table.
I have doubt weather it will work or not, Will it give correct data at granular level ?
Could you please suggest me is there any way to achieve it in OBIEE level ,without any difficulty? Or else I have to go for ETL Changes?
Regards,
Sonu
