How to define cells/columns for export/re-import to another app

I want to export a basic contact list to then import into another program (it's an email program, doesn't matter). It's a basic table with 3 columns: first name, last name, email address. How do you define the columns/cells so when importing in another app it knows what is what. Want to export as a tab-delimited or comma-delimited text file.
thx.

Christopher,
It's hard to say what that un-named other app might require for field identification, but your best bet is to have the field titles in a Header Row.
To produce a comma-delimited text file, assure that your data table is the only thing in your document. Isolating the data in this way will prevent complications. Then, File > Export > CSV.
To produce a tab-delimited text file, Select and Edit > Copy the table in Numbers and then Edit > Paste and Match Style in a Pages doc. Save the Pages doc.
Regards,
Jerry

  • HOW TO: Add /manipulate columns for a GridControl

    HOW TO: Add /manipulate columns for a GridControl when the columns (attributes) are from different entity objects.
    This HOWTO describes the basic steps of using attributes from different entity objects for a GridControl.
    One way you can create a GridControl which contain attributes from different entity objects is to create a view object and base it on the entity objects which contain
    the desired attributes.
    Here are the basic steps:
    1.Create a new view object (or use an existing view object) by selecting File>New from the menu, clicking the Business Components tab and double-clicking
    on the View Object icon.
    2.In the View Object wizard change the name to something meaningful.
    3.Select the entity objects you will base your view object on.
    4.Nivigate to the attribute screen and select the attributes you would like to include in your view object from each entity object. At this point you can also create
    a new attribute by clicking the "New" button. The new attribute can be a concatenation of other attributes, derived from a calculation etc.
    5.In the query panel of the View Object wizard, click "Expert mode" and enter a query statement. You write complex queries such as decoding a set of attribute
    values.
    6.Add your newly to your newly created view object to the application module by double-clicking on the application module in the navigation pane and selecting
    your view object from the list.
    7.Create a new row set.
    8.Bind row set to a query by editing their queryinfo property and selecting your view object and its attributes from the queryInfo pane.
    9.Create a GridControl and bind it to the row set by editing the dataItemName property of the GridControl. Since the GridControl is bound at the row set level
    all of the related attributes are automatically added.

    Michael,
    Are you intending this as a commercial solution or a work around?
    To take an existing equivalent, one would build a view in the database tailored for each grid in an Oracle Forms application. Or a separate query layered over tables for each form/grid in a Delphi or Access application? Even if it is ninety nine percent the same over half a dozen forms/grids?
    And now you've added a whole slew of "slightly different" rowSetInfos to maintain.
    So if you wanted to add a column that needs to appear everywhere... you've just increased the workload multi-fold?
    That would be a management nightmare, wouldn't it? Not to mention yet more performance cost and a slower system?
    Hmmmm..... I'm not sure I like where this is headed... someone needs to do some convincing...

  • How to define a Value for an Attribute of an Class

    Hi,
    How to define a Value for an Attribute of a Class ...
    ( I need to change the value of an Attribute of a class in standard program ....
    Ex...
       cl_hrce_masterswitches=>infotype_framework_is_active
    Here infotype_framework_is_active is the attribute .. its value in standard program is 'X'... Now i need to change it as '  '.
    How to define it and set value as ' '.

    Hello Surendar
    The static attribute INFOTYPE_FRAMEWORK_IS_ACTIVE is read-only and there is not SETTER method to manipulate its value.
    However, the attribute is filled in the CLASS_CONSTRUCTOR:
    METHOD class_constructor.
        IF ce_is_active                 = true OR
           global_payroll_is_active     = true OR
           mngmt_global_empls_is_active = true.
          infotype_framework_is_active = true.
          perid_infotype_is_active     = true.
        ELSE.
          infotype_framework_is_active = false.
          perid_infotype_is_active     = false.
        ENDIF.
    ENDMETHOD.
    Thus, you need to analyze how attribute CE_IS_ACTIVE, GLOBAL_PAYROLL_IS_ACTIVE and MNGMT_GLOBAL_EMPLS_IS_ACTIVE are filled in the CLASS_CONSTRUCTOR.
    For sure you will find customizing settings that are responsible for this.

  • How to define a column as html in a nested data set

    http://www.nmprc.state.nm.us/bailbonds2.htm
    If you click on Terms and definitions, and then click on any
    of the collapsible panels you can see that the html code is still
    showing. I got "name" and "desc" defined right, but despite many
    trials, I have yet to figure out how to define the column "answer"
    as html.

    ok, I tried it with the non-minimized files and it did the
    same thing, though I was able to fix it by adding
    {entityEncodeStrings: false });
    var ds1 = new Spry.Data.NestedXMLDataSet(dsAgents,
    "faqblock/agents", {entityEncodeStrings: false });
    it is now a working page
    http://www.nmprc.state.nm.us/bailbonds.htm
    you can see it with the packed files as bailbonds2 (the link
    in the originating post)
    I learn as I go, and thanks to the wonderful Spry team, I
    don't have too many bumps on the head...*smile* you guys are
    great...from the spry product, to the documentation, to the
    samples, and demos, I have never enjoyed using a product more. I

    Hi,
    The AP invoice approval used AME rules for finding the approver. You can base you AME rules on virutally anything.
    In this particular case, you can base your AME rules on one of the followings:
    1. If any of the Distribution Accounts contain Fixed Assets natural account
    2. You can define a separate document category which should be used with invoices for FA Purchase and use the category in AME rules to find approver
    3. You can have a DFF at the Invoice Header level to indicate that this is a fixed asset purchase invoice and have this DFF to be used in AME rules.

    But I don't find where I can define it.
    How to define new color for the form?
    Thanks in advance!

    You have to set the Canvas color or as I said earlier you need to use one of the available color schemas on the OAS or Builder runtime.
    If you want to use user defined colors in the builder, then you need to create a new color palette and use it.
    I personally haven't tried it, but there is a section in the online help that describes how to do this.

  • How row migration get eliminated by export and import the table.

    Hi ,
    Please let me know,how row migration get eliminated by export and import the table.
    Another method,deleting migrated rows and inserting those rows from copied table,
    i think the concept behind this method is,inserting these rows into new block.
    pls correct me if i am wrong.
    Thanks,
    Kumar.

    Hi!
    You can also use ALTER TABLE MOVE command, or if you are on 9i you can use DBMS_REDEFINITION package.
    If you have a maintainance window the easiest way would be to use alter table move.

  • How to export and import on another computer whole database connection

    Hi
    how to export and import on another computer whole database connection with all contents ?
    step by step

    From the "source" computer do this:
    1) Open SQLDeveloper.
    2) Right click on the main connections node and choose export connections.
    3) Select the connections you want exported and choose a file name and location to save them.
    4) Save the file by clicking OK then copy it to the destination PC.
    On the "destination" PC assuming you have already installed SQLDeveloper do this:
    1) Open SQLDeveloper.
    2) Right click on the main connections node and choose import connections.
    3) Browse to the connections file you copied earlier and select the connection you saved.
    4) Complete the import by clicking OK and you are done.
    Mind that this is sufficient only if you have only basic connections, if you have TNS connections you will also need to manually copy the Tnsnames file from the "source" PC to the "destination" PC and set the
    Tools -> Preferences -> Database -> Advanced Tnsnames directory
    to the directory where you copied the Tnsnames file.

  • BEx Define cell & column layout design

    Dear Gurus,
    I just like to get advise if the following are possible with BEx.
    1. Using Define Cell to calculate and display the value in a specific node of a hierarchy which is loaded with empty Keyfigure values.
    2. have 3 sets of columns for keyfigures and 1 set of rows structure. Each set of columns are 3 value types of a keyfigure, eg. actual/plan/variant. The other 2 sets of columns are for different year and derived calculations. I think there are only 2 structures allowed in BEx  (due to technical limitation?), so not sure how I can produce 3 sets of column structures. If possible, what is the limit as to the number of structures I can create? If only 2 structures allowed, either both in columns or 1 in row, other in columns, then is it possible to produce 3 sets of columns anyway using other techniques within BEx?
    Thanks and Merry Christmas!
    Regards,
    Pascal Gabin

    Hi Pascal,
    In order to use cell editor you need 2 structures.
    If you simply place into rows your IO with the hierarchy (without structure), you'll not be able to see cells with your IO.
    You can just create a structure in rows, reproducing a hierarchical presentation of nodes. Certainly, it's not flexible, but allow you to use cell editor.
    Another structure you can create in columns. I guess that you may place into it all KFs and formulas you need.
    The other argument for using just one structure in columns is that you have a column for derived values.
    In the determined for this formula you'll be able to use only selections and formulas that reside in the same structure.
    In one structure you cannot use elements of the other structure!
    So, go for 2 structures, both in rows and in columns.
    Best regards,
    Eugene
