How do you automate a list of numbers with specific attributes?

I was told you can do this but not sure how. Basically I have to label all the racking in my warehouse at work.
It goes rack#/column/row (ex. 1A1)
racks 1-3 are 5 high. 4-9 are 4 high.
racks 1-2 have 22 letters racks 3-6 have 26 letters racks 7-8 have 28 letters rack 9 has 20 letters
It will end on 9T4
I've done all the math and it will take 996 pages. I could do it one by one but it would take forever. Is there a simpler way? Each page will be 11x8.5 (landscape).
I'm using CS6.

With Data Merge you set up a template document containing field placeholders, and format it to your liking. The merge proces duplicates wahtever you set up. You can do either a single record (row in Excel) or as many as will fit on a page. Read about it in the Help files -- teh expalanation there is very good.
You can do something very simliar by adding a text frame to a master page and setting a paragraphh style that suits you for formatting, along with a Keep Option to start on next page. Then just place the saved text file using File > Place.... holding down the shift key to autoflow the entire list (click the loaded text cursor in the area of the empty master text frame).

  • How to find out which list is associated with specific incoming email address

    Hey Guys,
    I've a received a request today from a user asking me which list was setup with a specific incoming email address.
    Is there a way to find out which list is associated with an email address?
    Thanks

    OK after a bit of research I found a way to achieve this.
    I simply looked up the email address in ADUC, then did a search in SP with the display name. I could locate the list and manually confirm it was configured with the incoming email address I was looking for.
    I also found the below script on Stackoverflow, but got "The 'using' keyword is not supported in this version of the language." when I tried to run it. Any idea how to fix that? I'd like to have a script to link a library to an email address istead of the
    manual approach described above.

  • How do you create a graph in numbers with different x-values?

    For my chemistry class I have to create one scatter plot with three different sets of "x" and "y" values. I have done it before but it is not working. What is an easy way to accomplish this?

    All X and Y data has to be in regular cells, nothing in header rows or header columns. It should be organized as X1,Y1,X2,Y2, etc.
    Select all the data
    Choose to make a scatter chart
    At the bottom left of the Numbers window there is a little text box that probably says "Plot Columns as Series". Click on it and unselect "Share X Values"
    It is beyond me why Apple put that control in the bottom left corner in a place where you wouldn't think to look because it is far from the chart and far from the table and far from all the other controls you will be using to create and format the chart..

  • How do I automatically number rows in Numbers for iPad?

    How do I automatically number rows in Numbers for iPad?

    Hi James,
    On the iPod I can only insert what is on the clipboard but I can insert however many rows I have there. Is it working differently for you? Benjoon seemed to think that he could not do this in Numbers. He was ruling Numbers out because of it. He doesn't need to do that because of this issue.
    If I was needing to insert multiple blank rows often I might keep a table of blank rows or just some blank rows at the end of the working table that I could copy/paste. This is no different than Numbers on the Mac.

  • How do I add a list of numbers stored in an array

    How do I add a list of numbers stored in an array? The code I
    have is showing ‘NaN’ when I try to add the second item
    in each element of the array:
    var aItemPrices:Array = new Array(["item1_mc", 10], ["item
    2_mc", 20], ["item 3_mc", 30]);
    var totalPrice:Number;
    for (i=0; i<aItemPrices.length; i++) {
    //the following line traces 'NaN'
    totalPrice += aItemPrices
    [1];
    trace("totalPrice: "+ totalPrice);

    i modified your code in 2 places, check it
    var aItemPrices:Array = new Array(["item1_mc", 10], ["item
    2_mc", 20], ["item 3_mc", 30]);
    var totalPrice:Number=0; //Mani changes
    for (i=0; i<aItemPrices.length; i++) {
    //the following line traces 'NaN'
    totalPrice += aItemPrices
    [1];//Mani changes
    trace("totalPrice: "+ totalPrice);

    Hi Beast,
    You might find it easier to duplicate the whole doc and delete the sheets you don't want. Otherwise you are copying and pasting tables from each sheet.

    "How do you find a list of computers authorized on your account? "
    There is no list.
    "  Also if the computers are no longer available how can you de-authorize them?"
    You cannot, nor do you need to, until you reach the limit of 5.  At that point you can deauthorize all, then authorize the active computers.
