How to perform functions between tables on the same sheet in Numbers?

I have been working in Numbers creating a worksheet.  On one sheet I have multipule tables, with one table it has functions that uses cells from other tables.
When I first created it, it worked fine with 3 tables.  Now that I am trying to add more cells from other tables as functions in the main table, it is not working properly.  It's not even highlighting the added cell in the function as it did when I created it. Can someone explain what has changed for this to happen.

Irnstlgld,
In Numbers'09, when you point and click on the same cell for the second (third, etc.) time in the same expression (formula), you must hold down the Command key as you do it. Otherwise the subsequent references to that cell  won't register. I know you believe that the problem began with adding more than three tables, but I'll bet that the actual problem is with the multiple occurrences of the same cell in one expression.
Just remember to hold down the Command key for additional references to a given cell and you should be OK.

  • How to apply transitions between clips in the same track?

    Hey guys,
    I'm in Uni on Final Cut Pro 5 and all the videos and discussions tell of how to apply transitions between clips in the same track.
    I like to have my clips on different tracks so that I can overlap them at specific points but I don't know how to do this?
    If I have track one. . .which ends. . .and have track 2 beginning below that (and have it overlapped for a few seconds) I don't know how to enable the transition at the point where track 2 begins.
    Can anyone help?

    Yep I understand that.
    Let's say I overlap track 2 as I don't like the beginning of it. . .so I want the transition from the end of track one to track two to occur in the middle of track 2 - should I just trim the track to the point I want the transition to occur as opposed to have it overlapping?

  • How to update two database tables as the same Usernamethats logged in?

    I have created 2 separate database tables in PHP/MySQL that I want to store user information in. The first user table I made the fields: id, username, password. The second table I made the fields: id, firstname, lastname, address, phone.
    I want to make an update record page that is restricted by username and password that will update both table1 and table 2 from my MySQL database.
    I have created a registration page, a login page and a restricted page for when the user signs in. On the restricted page I want to update the users information.
    I have tried a few things and I can get the table that has the username field to update, I just can't get the second table to update with the first table.

    Hmm.
    Not sure where your going with the <select> menu.
    The description you made:
    "Both have an id column, which is presumably the record's primary key, but you need to create a relationship by storing the primary key of one table as a foreign key in the child (related) table. For example, you should insert the primary key of the first table in the second table as user_id. That enables you to identify which username and password are related to an individual listed in the second table"
    Seems to be the direction that I'm looking for.
    Now my question is how do I insert the primary key of the first table in the second table as user_id?
    >
    >"For example, you should insert the primary key of the first table in the second table as user_id"
    Since both tables have an id column and they both are the primary key, do I just change the name of the second tables id column to "user_id" then?
    Or is there an actual "insert the primary key to another table" function that I don't know about?

  • How to insert into 2 tables from the same page (with one button  link)

    Hi,
    I have the following 2 tables....
    Employees
    emp_id number not null
    name varchar2(30) not null
    email varchar2(50)
    hire_date date
    dept_id number
    PK = emp_id
    FK = dept_id
    Notes
    note_id number not null
    added_on date not null
    added_by varchar2(30) not null
    note varchar2(4000)
    emp_id number not null
    PK = note_id
    FK = emp_id
    I want to do an insert into both tables via the application and also via the same page (with one button link). I have made a form to add an employee with an add button - adding an employee is no problem.
    Now, on the same page, I have added a html text area in another region, where the user can write a note. But how do I get the note to insert into the Notes table when the user clicks the add button?
    In other words, when the user clicks 'add', the employee information should be inserted into the Employees table and the note should be inserted into the Notes table.
    How do I go about doing this?
    Thanks.

  • How do I share between users on the same macbook?

    I have a brand new macbook... the tool at the store wouldn't let me test drive this computer without him first putting a user account in place other than administrative rights (makes no sense to me either) Anyway, I set everything up under this username and now I have established another Admin account under MY Apple ID... as it still references his name in all of the root files. I am pretty intuitive in how to handle this issue......if it were a PC... bare with me . I'm learning.
    I surmise that I am able to back everything up and simply wipe the computer as a fix but I am trying to do everything short of that if possible....

    Users -> Shared folder allows you put files in a folder both users can see on a Mac.

    I am wonderfing how to create a temp table in the memory, not in disk?
    thanks,

    Thanks for rectifying me Howard.
    I just read your full article on this too and its very well explained here:
    http://www.dizwell.com/prod/node/357
    Few lines from your article
    It is true, of course, that since Version 8.0 Oracle has provided the ability to create a Keep Pool in the Buffer Cache, which certainly sounds like it can do the job... especially since that word 'keep' is used again. But a keep pool is merely a segregated part of the buffer cache, into which you direct blocks from particular tables (by creating them, or altering them, with the BUFFER POOL KEEP clause). So you can tuck the blocks from such tables out of the way, into their own part of the buffer cache... but that is not the same thing as guaranteeing they'll stay there. If you over-populate the Keep Pool, then its LRU mechanism will kick in and age its contents out just as efficiently as an unsegregated buffer cache would.
    Functionally, therefore, there can be no guarantees. The best you can do is create a sufficiently large Keep Pool, and then choose the tables that will use it with care such that they don’t swamp themselves, and start causing each other to age out back to disk.
    Thanks and Regards

  • How do you insert new records into multiple tables using the same unique primary key?

    I’ve created a PHP site and MySQL server using a free app called XAMPP.  I have successfully created a form in Dreamweaver that will write data to a (name) table in the SQL database.  Here’s my question: How do you write to two (or more) tables in the same database and pass the same primary key to both tables?  In the SQL database, I defined the first field as ID and set it as the primary key with auto update.  So, when you insert a new record, it creates a unique primary key for that record.  In my form, I’m capturing info that needs to be stored to two tables at the same time; a Name table and Address table. Since the Name and Address tables use the ID field as the primary key, I believe I will need to pass the ID value from the Name table to the insert of the Address table to insure they both have the same primary key, right?

    No. You probably need the primary key from one table to be a foreign key in the other tables. In any case, I believe you can use two methods to obtain the auto generated key. First with SQL:
    http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/getting-unique-id.html
    And the other using a PHP function:

  • How to insert into two differents tables at the same time

    Hi
    I'm newer using JDev, (version 3.1.1.2 cause the OAS seems to support just the JSP 1.0)
    and I want to insert into two differents tables at the same time using one view.
    How can I do that ?
    TIA
    Edgar

    Oracle 8i supports 'INSTEAD OF' triggers on object views so you could use a process similar to the following:
    1. Create an object view that joins your two tables. 'CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW test AS SELECT d.deptno, d.deptname, e.empname FROM DEPT d, EMP E'.
    2. Create an INSTEAD OF trigger on the view.
    3. Put code in the trigger that looks at the :NEW values being processed and determines which columns should be used to INSERT or UPDATE for each table. Crude pseudo-code might be:
    IF :NEW.deptno NOT IN (SELECT deptno FROM DEPT) THEN
    INSERT INTO dept VALUES(:NEW.deptno, :NEW.deptname);
    INSERT INTO emp VALUES (:NEW.deptno, :NEW.empname);
    ELSE
    IF :NEW.deptname IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE dept SET deptname = :NEW.deptname
    WHERE deptno = :NEW.deptno;
    END IF;
    IF :NEW.empname IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE emp SET empname = :NEW.empname
    WHERE deptno = :NEW.deptno;
    Try something along those lines.

  • How to use the TableSorter for two tables at the same view?

    Hello,
    I am using the TableSorter object in order to sort Dynpro tables.
    Suppose I have two tables at the same view, is it possible to use it seperatly for both of them?
    I assume that at the wdModifyView method I will need to catch the table that the user clicked on, yet I don't have an idea of how to do it...

    Hi Roy,
    Constructor of TableSorter
    public TableSorter(IWDTable table, IWDAction sortAction, Comparator[] comparators)
    So, you have to create instance of TableSorter class for each table on the view.
    best regards, Maksim Rashchynski.
