How to give a cell a name

In Excel it was very easy to give a cell a name like 'Listprice' or 'Rate' (by typing it in above left in the sheet while having the cell selected).
I've looked in the help, but can't find a way to do this in Numbers. I only find things about giving columns and rows names. How does this work in Numbers? Thanks in advance.

As Jerry said, it can be done if you have a header row and a header column in your table and you enter the descriptive text in the headers. If I type the word "Rate" into cell A2 (column A being a header column) and "2010" into B1 (row 1 being a header row), cell B2 will be given the name "2010 Rate". If there is more than one table with these same headers, the name will include the table name like "Table 1::2010 Rate" This isn't as flexible as being able to give particular cells specific names but it does the trick in many cases.

  • How to give a dynamic File Name for Receiver File/FTP Adapter.

    Hi Experts,
        I have one scenario in which we are creating a flat file of IDOC which is coming from R/3 & sending it to FTP location. For this we have configured Receiver FTP adapter with File Name Scheme as "NT.out"  & in File Consturction mode i have given as "Add Time Stamp".
        therfore while creating a file it is creating as NTyyyyMMdd-HHmmss-SSS.out
    where as my requirement is only to to add Time & not the Date. (NThhmmss.out)
        How to do this ?
        for your info we are using ABAP Mapping.
        Pl help me
    Regards,
    Umesh

    Hi Umesh,
          Add one more field to your target structure for your file name and populate that field as per your requirement like NTyyyyMMdd.out. In receiver communication channel use Variable subtiution option and give the refrence of Payload and file construction mode set as create.
    And refer the below weblogs for Variable Subtiutuion File Name Scheme

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

  • How to give field name to Receiver File Name.

    Hi ,
    In my source target structure there is a field name
    "job id" .
    I need that value coming in that field name to be given to
    Receiver File Name.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi,
    You could use the field name to the File Name. For that you could go ahead with variable substituiton in receiver communication channel.
    In receiver Communication channel use variable substitution as
    In file name -- %Var1%
    In Variable substitution parameter give Var1 ---> payload:<field Name>

  • How to give Authorization?

    I have created a 'Z' application which consists of create, change and display User interface.Whenever the user selects craete all fields go editable, change will have some fields editable and display all uneditable.I used only one view and i handled all three modes using invisible and enable property.
    Now i want to allow only certain users to access create and change but display for all users.How to give this kind of autorization in webdynpro????
    Please explain me about authorization in webdynpro taking my scenario?

    Hello,
    I hope you are aware of authority checks in ABAP in general. In your scenario, what you can do is: create one context attribute IS_AUTHORIZED of type WDY_BOOLEAN.
    And in WDDOINIT of the component controller or view controller,
    do the authorization check using AUTHORITY-CHECK stmt and if the check fails i.e. sy-subrc is not equals to 0, then
    set the attribute  IS_AUTHORIZED to false. Otherwise set it to true.
    And you have to bind the enabled property of the buttons to this context attribute IS_AUTHORIZED.
    Please refer to the following code sample:
        DATA lo_nd_selection_type TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
        DATA lo_el_selection_type TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
        lo_nd_selection_type = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_flex_config ).
        lo_el_selection_type = lo_nd_selection_type->get_element( ).
      AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT <objectName>
      ID <name1> FIELD <f1>
      ID <name2> FIELD <f2>.
      IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    * Prohibhit the user from modifying config
        lo_el_selection_type->set_attribute(
          name =  `IS_AUTHORIZED`
          value = abap_false ).
      ELSE.
        lo_el_selection_type->set_attribute(
          name =  `IS_AUTHORIZED`
          value = abap_true ).
      ENDIF.
    Hope this helps!

    It's actually quite easy.
    What you have to do is write a custom tree cell renderer which extends DefaultTreeCellRenderer. In that class, your getTreeCellRenderer() method should do something like the following:
    public Component getTreeCellRendererComponent(
        JTree tree, Object value, boolean selected,
        boolean expanded, boolean leaf, int row, boolean hasFocus )
            Component treeCellRenderer =
                  super.getTreeCellRendererComponent(tree, value, selected, expanded, leaf, row, hasFocus);
            if (selected) {
                setForeground(Color.WHITE);
                setBackground(BACKGROUND_SELECTION_COLOR);
            } else {
                treeCellRenderer.setForeground(Color.RED);
            return treeCellRenderer;
    Then you'll need to make sure that you call myTree.setCellRenderer(new CustomTreeCellRenderer());

  • How to give no of lines per page in alv report

    hi
    could anybody tell me
    how to give no of lines per page in alv report
    i need bottom of page too
    if possible plz send the code too
    it ll be very helpful to me
    thanx
    kals.

    Hi,
    This is possible, using some of the events in the ALV.
    You could use AFTER_LINE_OUTPUT event and call you form after say, a certain line count is reached on the list output.
      MOVE 'AFTER_LINE_OUTPUT' TO gw_event-name.
      MOVE 'AFTER_LINE_OUTPUT' TO gw_event-form.
      APPEND gw_event TO gt_events.
      CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'
           EXPORTING
                it_events                = gt_events[]
    and define the form for each event as follows - this would be a dynamic call by the ALV.
    *&      Form  after_line_output
    *       Form for the After Line Output Event in the internal table
    *      --> rs_lineinfo
    FORM after_line_output USING rs_lineinfo TYPE slis_lineinfo.
      IF sy-linno eq v_linno.          "Defaulted value for line count
        perform write_footer.
        NEW-PAGE.
      ENDIF.
    ENDFORM.                    " after_line_output
    For lines per page:
    rs_lineinfo-tabindex would give you the index of the current line in the list, which you could use to read the t_outtab table, and reduce the line count of items displayed on the earlier page.
    There are a few other events too, like BEFORE_LINE_OUTPUT and END_OF_LIST which you can use as required and print the data.
    Regards,
    Anil.

  • How can I organize data by name in a drop down menu?

    I created a spread sheet with several drop down menus. The problem I am having is how to organize my data by name. Every new entry is at the bottom of the drop down and can't be moved to a different location. This gets very confusing as I add more names to the drop down cell. In this case my entries consist of Chemical names that make it very hard to recognize or to locate once I open the drop down menu. Any suggestions?
