How to select a random cell in the DataGridView?

Good day
I am new to the DataGridView control. I was wondering if one can select a random cell in the DataGridView and if it is possible can someone help me with the code or a link to do it please.
Thank you.

Hi Arno du Toit,
Use the following code, you can select the specilized cell.
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.Rows[rowindex].Cells[columnindex];
Select a random Cell?
Random rnd = new Random();
int rowMax = DataGridView1.Rows.Count;
int colMax = DataGridView1.Columns.Count;
if(rowMax > 0 && colMax > 0)
int row = rnd.Next(1, rowMax); //get the random row index
int column = rnd.Next(1, colMax); //get the random column index
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.Rows[row].Cells[column];
If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,

How do you highlight several cells with the mouse in numbers

how do you highlight several cells with the mouse in numbers

Hi David,
Using only the mouse, you can select a contiguous range of cells using the method described by dwb.
For larger (but still contiguous) ranges you might prefer this method:
Click the first (top left) cell of the desired selection.
Scroll to the last (botom right) cell of the desired selection.
Shift-click the bottom right cell to select it, and all of the cells in the rectangular array defined by this and the top left cell selected in step 1.
To select two or more non-contiguous cells:
Click on the first to select it.
Command-click on another to add it to the selection.
Repeat as necessary.
Regards,
Barry

How do you add multiple cells to the LARGE function?

I want to add several cells which are contained on different sheets and tables to the same LARGE function and select the first ranking cell value.
How do I add these cells as a single argument for this function?

"...and select the first ranking cell value."
Hi eobet,
If your actual goal is as stated, you could use MAX, which will accept a list, a range, or a list of ranges as arguments.
LARGE accepts only a single argument to establish the set of values, plus a single argument to establish the rank of the desired value. That means you need to collect all of the vlues into a sngle contiguous group/range, then specify that range as the set. The avantage, ofcourse, is that with LARGE, you can specify that you want the 'third largest' value in the set.
Here's an example.
The data set is column B on tables Data 1 and Data 2.
The set is collected into a single contiguous range on the table Aux (which may be hidden, or placed on a separate sheet).
LARGE collects the nth value from the collected set in Aux, using this formula in the table Summary:
A2, and filled down: =LARGE(Aux :: A:B,ROW()-1)
MAX returns the largest value from the original data set on Data 1 and Data 2, using this formula on the table Summary-1:
A2: =MAX(Data 1 :: B,Data 2 :: B)

How to select a random row with for update?

Hi,
I have a package that needs to assign a random, reusable number (ID) that is not currently being used - to a procedure.
I'm trying to simulate a pool of numbers (IDs) using a table that has an ID and IS_USED columns.
How do I do:
select a random ID (random row)
from pool_table
where IS_USED is 0 (not taken)
FOR UPDATEThe for update is to lock the row from being taken by another process calling the package.
OR:
Can I simulate a pool of numbers with a different object (not a table)?
I need the numbers to be coherent between sessions (thus package variables will not work) and only one session uses the same ID at any given time. When it finishes the number becomes available for further runs.
Thanks.

How to select a specific cell in a JTable?

Hi there,
in a JTable, I would like to select a specific cell (to highlight it) from a JButton.
Here a sample code...
Who could help me to fill it?
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.table.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class TableSelection{
    public static void main (String args[]) {
      JFrame frame = new MyFrame();
      frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
      frame.show();
class MyFrame extends JFrame{
public MyFrame(){
    setTitle("TableSelection");
    setSize(WIDTH,HEIGHT);
    DefaultTableModel myModel = new DefaultTableModel(2,2);
    JTable myTable = new JTable(myModel);
    myTable.setCellSelectionEnabled(true);
    JButton button00 = new JButton("select 0,0");
    button00.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event){
     System.out.println("selection of cell (0,0)");
     //--- what code is required to select the cell(0,0)?
    JButton button11 = new JButton("select 1,1");
    button11.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event){
     System.out.println("selection of cell (1,1)");
     //--- what code is required to select the cell(1,1)?
    Box myBox = new Box(BoxLayout.Y_AXIS);
    myBox.add(new JScrollPane(myTable));
    myBox.add(button00);
    myBox.add(button11);
    getContentPane().add(myBox, BorderLayout.CENTER);
private static final int WIDTH=200;
private static final int HEIGHT=200;
}Thanks a lot for your help.

Use the addColumnSelectionInterval(int index1, int index2)method ~ http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/javax/swing/JTable.html#addColumnSelectionInterval(int,%20int)
and the addRowSelectionInterval(int index1, int index2) method ~ http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/javax/swing/JTable.html#addRowSelectionInterval(int,%20int)
Hope that helped.

How do I make a cell reference the condition in a COUNTIF statement?

I have a formula:
=COUNTIF(Funds Under Management by Client :: D2:D91,">3.0")
However, I want to replace the condition '3.0' with a reference to another cell eg B2 so that I can play around with different values and have them immediately reflected in the COUNTIF total. Problem is, I can't find the right syntax to achieve this. I want the formula to actually look something like this:
=COUNTIF(Funds Under Management by Client :: D2:D91,">B2")
Is this possible, and if so, how do I do it? Making the formula refer to a cell saves me from having to manually change 90 odd cells in the spreadsheet every time I want to vary the criteria.
TIA

How to select values frm table giving the condition value at runtime in SQL

Hi All,
How to select values from a table by giving the condition value at runtime in SQL
My SQL statement is select * from employee where empno=<empno>, this empno I want to provide at run time. Also I don't have any bind variables defined. Can anyone please tell how can I achieve this. Also do I have to write a SQL or pl/sql statement.

Hi Roshni Shankar,
You can use substitution variable in case of SQL.
SQL> select * from employees where emplployee_id = &emp_id;
Enter value for emp_id: 100
old   1: select * from employees where emplployee_id = &emp_id
new   1: select * from employees where emplployee_id = 100If you want to put condition on varchar values then eighter provide values in single quotes or use single quote for substitution variable.
SQL> select * from employees where last_name = &emp_name;
Enter value for emp_name: 'King'
old   1: select * from employees where last_name = &emp_name
new   1: select * from employees where last_name = 'King'
no rows selected
SQL> select * from employees where last_name = '&e_name';
Enter value for e_name: King
old   1: select * from employees where last_name = '&e_name'
new   1: select * from employees where last_name = 'King'In case of pl/sql you can pass values to procedure and you can use those values at run time.
create or replace procedure test (p_emp_id number)
as
   v_last_name      varchar2(100);
begin
   select last_name
   into    v_last_name
   from employees
   where employee_id = p_emp_id;
   dbms_output.put_line(p_emp_id ||'    ->    '||v_last_name);
end;
show errors
SQL>exec test(100);
SQL>exec test(101);Edited by: Gaurav Bhide on Oct 29, 2012 4:07 AM

How to select all single values in the header area

Dear Experts
I got a request that the user wants to select a single value or all single values in the header area. E.g. if the values from characteristic master data are A, B, C and D, the selection can be one of these values or all of them. With the standard BPS configuration, due to the unique combination in the header area, selection of 'All' single values is not possible. Is there a way to select all single values in the header area?
Thanks, Jessica

Hi Jessica,
Here is a solution where you need not to change your planning layout or to create a new variable or any exit function.
Step 1 - Maintain master data value 'ALL' in the required characteristic.
Step 2 - Create a copy function to copy all the required data records to 'ALL'. you can use standard copy function where you have to include only this characteristic in the fields to be change.
Copy -
From = all values (A,B,C,D etc)
To = "ALL".
Step 3 - Call this function on layout opening. you can include it in the planning folder and change the function attribute to call it on layout opening.
Step 4 - Create a standard Delete function. you have to call this function on save operation. In this function, you have to delete all data records present in the buffer where required char contains 'ALL' value.
This approach can impact the performance of the planning application. It depends on the number of data records you are dealing with. Standard Copy and Delete functions are pretty fast in nature.
I hope it will help you. please let me know if you need more inputs.
Regards
Tarun

How to fill an empty cell with the value above

Hello,
Please help me on the following issue related to BEx query and it's output in BEx analyzer as well as on Web.
I am trying to modify a query output where the empty cells are to be filled with the value in the above cell.
e.g. there is a column for transaction number, and this transaction number is the same for three rows, so it turns out to be two empty cells and only appears as if the transaction number applies to the first row only.
not sure how to paste screenshot or attach document but would love to provide more information if the above isn't suffice.
Please advise on what and where to modify in BEx designer.
Thank you for your help!

Thanks a lot...yes, now it works in BEx Analyzer but for some reason doesn't work in the Web view.
Any ideas why is that?
Thanks again for your prompt help.
