How to dynamically copy cells from different tables?

Hi,
I've created an invoice and have 2 different tables. First is at top with Recipient information, the invoice number, their address, etc. Below that, I have a 2nd table laying out the items they are being charged for.
I would like to copy the invoice number from the 1st table, to a cell in the 2nd table or a 3rd table I will create later on. I know how to copy cells in 1 table, ie. =D4. But not sure how to target a different table altogether.
Also, is it possible to copy a cell from 1 table to a text box field?
Thanks!!

Yvan's point is true.  Please use the User Guides first; they're actually pretty readable.
However, there's a very quick & easy way to try it out as well.  Go to the cell where you want your data to end up.  Type "=" (without quotes) to indicate you're going to input a formula of some kind.  Then without clicking inside any tables, use the list of sheets and tables to the left to get to your source table and click on the cell that contains the data you want to copy.  Presto!  Go back to your destination cell, and the formula is now filled in, following the scheme Yvan provided.

  • How to do a SELECT from different tables into an internal table?

    How to do a SELECT from different tables into an internal table?
    I want to select data from MARA, MARC and ZPERSON and populate my ITAB_FINAL
    REPORT  zinternal_table.
    TABLES:
      mara,
      marc,
      zperson.
    TYPES:
    BEGIN OF str_table1,
      v_name LIKE zperson-zname,
      v_matnr LIKE marc-matnr,
      v_emarc LIKE marc-emarc,
      v_werks_d LIKE marc-werks_d,
      v_dstat LIKE marc-dstat,
      END OF str_table,
      i_table1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF str_table1.
    DATA:
    BEGIN OF str_table2,
    v_mandt LIKE mara-mandt,
    v_ernam LIKE mara-ernam,
      v_laeda LIKE mara-laeda,
    END OF str_table2,
    itab_final LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF str_table2.

    first find the link between mara , marc and zperson , if u have link to 3 tables then u can jus write a join and populate the table u want ( thats final table with all the fields).
    u defenitely have alink between mara and marc so join them and retrieve all data into one internal table.
    then for all the entries in that internal table retrieve data from zperson into another internal table.
    then loop at one internal table
    read another internal table where key equals in both the tables.
    finally assign fileds if sy-subrc = 0.
    gs_finaltable-matnr = gs_table-matnr
    etc...
    and finally append gs_finaltable to gt_finaltable.
    there u go ur final table has all the data u want.

  • How to display multiple data from different table in one table? please help

    Hi
    I got sun java studio creator 2(the separate installation not the one in the net beans)....
    My question is about displaying data that have been taken from the database.... I know how to display data in a table(just click on the table "bind data" )... but my question is that:
    when i want to use a sql statement that taken the data from different table...
    how can i display that data in the table(that will be shown in the web) ??? when i click bind data on the table i can only select one table i can't select more than one....
    Note:
    1) i'm using the rowset for displaying the data in the table, since the sql statement is depending on a condition(i.e. select a from b where c= ? )...
    2) i mean by different table is that( i.e. select a from table1,table2 )..
    thanks in advance...

    I want display the details of emp table.. for that I am using this SQL statement.
    select * from emp where mgr=nvl(:mgr,mgr);
    when I give the input as 7698 it is displaying the corresponding records... and also when I won't give any input then it is displaying all the records except the mgr with null values.
    1)I want to display all the records when I won't give any input including nulls
    2)I want to display all the records who's mgr is null
    Is there any way to incorporate to include all these in a single query..It's a little unclear what you're asking.
    The following query always includes rows where mgr is NULL, and when the bind variable :mgr is NULL, it displays all rows:
    SELECT  *
    FROM     emp
    WHERE     LNNVL (mgr != :mgr)
    ;That is, when :mgr = 7698, it displays 6 rows, and when :mgr is NULL it displays 14 rows (assuming you're using the Oracle-supplied scott.emp table).
    The following query includes rows where mgr is NULL only when the bind variable :mgr is NULL, in which case it displays all rows:
    SELECT     *
    FROM     emp
    WHERE     :mgr     = mgr
    OR       :mgr       IS NULL
    ;When :mgr = 7698, this displays 5 rows, and when :mgr is NULL it displays 14 rows.
    The following query includes rows where mgr is NULL only when the bind variab;e :mgr is NULL, in which case it displays only the rows where mgr is NULL. That is, it treats NULL as a value:
    SELECT     *
    FROM     emp
    WHERE     DECODE ( mgr
                , :mgr, 'OK'
                )     = 'OK'
    ;When :mgr = 7698, this displays 5 rows, and when :mgr is NULL, it displays 1 row.

    thanks,

    You havent given any information on the mapping between Cycle and Asp. I presume there is a one to one mapping between them. Also it appears there is no "WHERE" clause to limit the number of cycles being retrieved. If that is the case then I presume you want to load all cycles in the system.
    Thats just a clientSession.readAllObjects(Cycle.class). If you have indirection turned on the Asp should get loaded when you do a cycle.getAsp().
    I presume that SQL you posted loads all the columns of CYCLE and ASP. If you are interested in a subset of CYCLE or ASP then you should do a ReportQuery or partial object read.

  • How to return course  data  from different tables from a procedure

    I have a procedure which must return information from two tables:
    The sturcture of tables is as below:
    Table 1:
    id,
    name,
    property,
    type
    Table 2:
    id1
    id2 ,
    property.
    id1 of table2 refers to id attribute of table1. ie id is the foreign key for table2.
    the tables are defined such that for corresponding to each id in table1 there would
    be two or more rows in table2.
    Now in the procedure given the id, i need to retrieve information from table1 and also all the rows in table2 which refers to id2.I want to return a cursor.How can i do this.
    eg:
    if table 1 has an entry with id 2
    and table 2 has three entries with id1 referring to id(i.e id1=2)..I need to return the table1 entry with id=2 and three entires from table2 with id1=2.
    If cursors are not appropriate, what other alternative methods can be used.
    Any suggestions would be of great help.

    thanks for the reply,
    The result set would be returned to the client .....which would do further processing.The client does not even know that the data is organized in two tables..Therefore given an id, client would expect to have all the information...i.e the info from table 1 and info from table 2 where the relation ship between id and other ids are stored.
    i.e say client has id=6.This id has property,name,etc stored in table1.
    This id can further be related to any number other of ids.It can be related 2,5,100,or may be even 10000s of other ids.This mapping between the original id and other ids..are stored in table2.
    So given the id by the client , i would want to return property of the ids itself along with all the ids that it is related to .
    I want to achieve this.....

  • How to update multiple columns from different tables using cursor.

    Hi,
    i have two tables test1 and test2. i want to udpate the column(DEPT_DSCR) of both the tables TEST1 and TEST2 using select for update and current of...using cursor.
    I have a code written as follows :
    DECLARE
    v_mydept1 TEST1.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
    v_mydept2 TEST2.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
    CURSOR C1 IS SELECT TEST1.DEPT_CD,TEST2.DEPT_CD FROM TEST1,TEST2 WHERE TEST1.DEPT_CD = TEST2.DEPT_CD AND TEST1.DEPT_CD = 'AA' FOR UPDATE OF TEST1.DEPT_DSCR,TEST2.DEPT_DSCR;
    BEGIN
    OPEN C1;
         LOOP
              FETCH C1 INTO v_mydept1,v_mydept2;
              EXIT WHEN C1%NOTFOUND;
              UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL1' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
              UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL2' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
         END LOOP;
         COMMIT;
    END;
    The above code when run says that it runs successfully. But it does not updates the desired columns[DEPT_DSCR].
    It only works when we want to update single or multiple columns of same table...i.e. by providing these columns after "FOR UPDATE OF"
    I am not sure what is the exact problem when we want to update multiple columns of different tables.
    Can anyone help me on this ?

    oops my mistake.....typo mistake...it should have been as follows --
    UPDATE TEST1 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL1' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
    UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL2' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
    Now here is the upated PL/SQL code where we are trying to update columns of different tables --
    DECLARE
    v_mydept1 TEST1.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
    v_mydept2 TEST2.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
    CURSOR C1 IS SELECT TEST1.DEPT_CD,TEST2.DEPT_CD FROM TEST1,TEST2 WHERE TEST1.DEPT_CD = TEST2.DEPT_CD AND TEST1.DEPT_CD = 'AA' FOR UPDATE OF TEST1.DEPT_DSCR,TEST2.DEPT_DSCR;
    BEGIN
    OPEN C1;
    LOOP
    FETCH C1 INTO v_mydept1,v_mydept2;
    EXIT WHEN C1%NOTFOUND;
    UPDATE TEST1 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL1' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
    UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL2' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
    END LOOP;
    COMMIT;
    END;
    Please let us know why it is not updating by using using CURRENT OF

    All I would do is, in SQL*Plus, spool your output to a file and change the pagesize to however many lines you want before the next header break.
    For example:
    SET PAGESIZE 79
    SPOOL OUTPUT.TXT
    Would create an output file called OUTPUT.TXT with header rows produced after every 79 rows of data.

  • How do I copy content from an entire row into a different table?

    How do I copy content from an entire row of one table into a different table?  When I try to copy/paste the selected row into a row of the same size  and configuration in another table in the same document, the cells change width, the formatting and border thicknesses change, and the text gets squeezed.  When I was working with tables in Microsoft Word, there was no problem selecting text from a row in one table and placing it into a similar row and configuration in another table.

    Hi Christopher Morgan
    And welcome to apple discussions. With regard to your main question ....
    Q: Can this be done?
    A: It can but not easily (in that you may take a hit in quality). Apps like MpegStream Clip or DVDXDV may help:

    It converts it back to a QT file for use with iDvd (or iMovie).

  • How to add a cell from 2 different tables in 2 different Matrix(s) that reside on the same rdlc report?

    Hello Community
        Using Visual Studio 2008 I have created a Windows Forms Application in which I created
    Embedded Reports (rdlc).
        The embedded reports (rdlc) uses Matrix(s).
        Now on this one rdlc I have dragged 2 Matrix(s) onto the body.
        One of the Matrix datasource dataset name and table name is "DataSet1_Table1.
        A cells in the Matrix has a total column on the end as follows:
    =FormatNumber(Sum(Fields!fld1.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld2.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld3.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld4.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld5.Value),"0")
        The other Matrix datasource dataset name and table name is "DataSet2_Table2.
        The cell in this Matrix has a total column on the end as follows:
    =Sum(Fields!fld1.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld2.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld3.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld4.Value)+Sum(Fields!fld5.Value)
        As you can see each Matrix has a different table.
        I would like to add the total columns from each table in each Matrix but I haven't been
    able to do it successfully. If I have to drag another Matrix or a Textbox on the
    body to do it that is okay and/or add another/different formula to a cell onto the body that is
    okay too.
        So my question is how can I add the contents of the total in cell from each table in each matrix
    which will create the "grand total"?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut

    It is possible to reference SSRS elements directly using the ReportItems collection. If your total tablix cell is outside of yoour matrix groups, you can use this collection to accomplish what you want:
    =ReportItems!Matrix1Total.Value + ReportItems!Matrix2Total.Value
    where Matrix1Total and Matrix2Total is the name of the cell that contains your totals. Note that for this to work, the cell name must be unique. If the total cell is inside a group, it will be repeated once for each instance of the group and will not be
    unique.
    You may be able to do it using the Sum aggregate and specifying the dataset for the scope variable:
    =Sum(Fields!fld1.Value, "DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld2.Value,
    "DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld3.Value,
    "DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld4.Value,
    "DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld5.Value,
    "DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld1.Value,
    "DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld2.Value,
    "DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld3.Value,
    "DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld4.Value,
    "DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld5.Value,
    "DataSet2")
    This will work as long as you are not filtering the dataset in your Matrix properties. If you are, those
    filters will not apply to this expression and the numbers will not total correctly.

  • How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

    How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

    Hi George,
    Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
    Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.

  • How to copy file from one table to another table at another database

    I need to transfer my tables from one workspace and schema to another workspace and schema. Basically I need to create again all the tables at this new schema. How could I transfer data from tha table at old schema to the table at new schema when this table has files stored in it? (data type is blob)
    thank you so much,

    Hello Silver,
    Depending which database you're using (if it's available) I would recommend to use datapump.
    Datapump allows you to copy an entire schema to another database, it's the "new" export/import you might now.

  • How to get only column names from different tables as single table columns

    Hi All,
       I have one requirement in which we want only column names from different tables.
    for example :
     I have three tables T1 ,T2, T3 having
      col1 clo2 clo3 -->  T1 , 
      col3 col5 ,clo6 --> T2 ,
      Clo6 col8 col9 --> T3
    columns i want to get only all  Column names from all table as single Resultset not any data from that how can i get that empty resultset 
    because this empty result i want to bind in datagridview(front end) as Empty resultset 
    Please tell me anyways to do this
    Niraj Sevalkar

    If I understand you want an empty result set, just with metadata. SET FMTONLY do the trick:
    SET FMTONLY ON
    SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
    FROM
    T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
    SET FMTONLY OFF
    Another alternative is to include an imposible contition
    SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
    FROM
    T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
    WHERE 1 = 0
    If you are using a SqlDataAdapter in your client application. You can use the FillSchema method. the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want. Under the covers FillSchema will call SET FMTONLY ON.
    If you are using SqlCommand.ExecuteReader you can pass SchemaOnly to CommandBehavior argument. SET FMTONLY ON is called under the covers. Again the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want.
