If/then statement in numbers

Hello, I am working in numbers version 3.5.2 (2118) and have created a spreadsheet for inventory. I have figured out how to have it mark the cells with a negative number in red, but I would also like the spreadsheet to populate the entire row at the bottom so that it can quickly make a list of what needs to be ordered. Here is an example of what it looks like:
In column I the negative cells are red, I want it to take that whole row and summarize all the rows that have a red/negative answer in column I at the bottom of the spreadsheet. Is this possible and if so what would the formula be?
Thank you
iMac OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2

Have you considered sorting the table so that the negative rows are all at the top, then copying those rows and pasting (using the menu item "Edit > Paste Formula Results) them into another table?

How can i open a PDF bank statement in numbers so that the rows and columns contain properly aligned data from statement?

how can i open a PDF bank statement in "numbers" so that the rows and columns contain properly aligned data from statement?

Numbers can store pdfs pages or clippings but does not directly open pdf files. To get the bank statement into Numbers as a table I would open the bank statment in Preview (or Skim) or some pdf viewer.
Then hold the option key while selecting a column of data.
Then copy
Then switch to numbers and paste the column into a table
Then repeat for the other columns in the pdf document
It would be easier (in my opinion) to download the QFX or CSV version from your bank

How do I change the decimal separator from a comma to a dot in numbers? I upload my bank statements into numbers and all contain dots. Numbers does not understand the dots.

Hi,
I am a recent convert from Exell to Numbers.
I have downloaded my bank statements to Numbers. The bank statement uses dots as decimal separators, whilst the Numbers default is a comma.
I need to change the Numbers format to dot to avoid having to manually change all in the downloaded spreadsheet.
This spreadsheet also includes my currency as R (ZAR Rands), so either need to remove these or get Numbers to understand it, again to avoid having to remove/change all manually.
Would really appreciate your help.

Hi,
Thanks for your response. Have figured it out with the help of Ross at the V & A Waterfront Apple Store.
System Preferences- Language and Region- at the bottom of the box click "Advanced"- then choose the dot/ comma under Number separators- Decimal and again under drop down box "decimal" under currency.

If-then statement in formula node

**Note - The attached file shows the current block diagram.
I have a formula node inside a for loop. Inside the formula node I am trying to program the if-then statement:
If T1<2.0E-5 OR T1>5.5E-4 THEN GOTO 3
U7=U7+V
I have 4 items I need help with:
(1) Is 'II' the correct operator for 'OR'?
(2) Is 'goto' an acceptable operator within LabVIEW?
(3) 'U7' is building a 1D array. How do I need to define it? Is it simply 'int U7'? Also, I will add an output value named 'U7' on the formula node wall with an indicator wired to it from outside the for loop.
(4) Is my use of the equal sign appropriate or do I need to use '=='?
Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help. I went ahead and rewrote the program so I could omit the 'goto's. Another problem that I am having is that I want 2 statements for 1 assignment:
if (T1>=.002004 && T1<=.002584)
B1=U
A1=V;
I want to assign both B1 and A1 values when the above condition is true. I tried a comma between the U and A1 but it doesn't work as well. Should I define A1 and B1 separately? Or would this create problems?
if (T1>=.002004 && T1<=.002584)
B1=U;
if (T1>=.002004 && T1<=.002584)
A1=V;
Thanks,

Help with IF statement in numbers

Hi Community
Please could someone assist with creating a formula.
I have created an exercise log (see image). Now when I input a formula in E, =D2/C2 it gives me my Minutes/km, but in a row containing 'Resistance' it obviously gives me the enoying red beacon.
How can I create an IF/THEN statement, basically IF column C = "0", then 'leave field black', otherwise 'calculate my Minutes/km'.
A solution will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike

I suggest the following changes:
1) omit the "km" from in each entry of the "Distance" column and simply place it in the column header
2) use the following formula for the "Min / km" column:
E2=IF(C2>0,DURATION(,,,DUR2MINUTES(D2)/C2,), "")
the problem is you cannot divide by 0 (EVER). so you were correct to consider using an if to omit entries where the was no distance.
I hop this helps.

"If, Then" Statements Driving Selection

I am creating a price list/order form and need some help with "If, Then" statements and how their result drives a price selection.
I have a product that is priced differently based on both how many is purchased and how many colors it has. My variables are (a) one, two, three or four colors, and (b) 10 to 500 pieces in six tiers (10-24, 25-49, 50-99, 100-249, 250-499, 500+).
I want to autopopulate a price field based on the color number and the quantity, making the pricing foolproof and the total order amount automatically calculated.
Here's my situation:
- Field A is Number of Colors (let's say 1-color)
- Field B is Quantity (let's say it's 23, putting us in the 10-24 tier pricing)
- Field C is Unit Price (1-color @ 23 qty would be $76.63 each)
- Field D is Total Price (23 x $76.63)
My statement would look like the following, but I don't know how to structure this in the form fields or where to put the quantity or pricing table for the software to calculate B or C:
If A is 1-color, and B is 23, then C is $76.63.
My Field D calculation is pretty straight-forward (Field C x Field D) if I can figure out a way to determine Field C's value.
Help!

DISCOVERER 3.1, IF,THEN STATEMENT

Dear All,
I am not an experienced Discoverer user. Please forgive my ignorance.
I would like to create a column that will "fill in" certain text based on the contents of other columns.
I have been partially successful by using the DECODE function, but I have only been able to base my result on one column.
What I need to do is create text statements that will vary based on the contents of 3 different columns. For example IF Fruit=** AND Color=*** AND Date Picked = *** then Statement= MY STATEMENT.
FRUIT COLOR DATE PICKED STATEMENT
APPLE RED 30<SYSDATE BAD RED APPLE
APPLE RED SYSDATE O.K. RED APPLE
APPLE GREEN SYSDATE BAKING APPLE
PEACH PINK >SYSDATE GOOD FOR PIES
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Dear Andrew,
Thanks so much for taking the time to reply. I will try this.

Hi Nancy,
I am not an experienced Discoverer user, but I know SQL. So here is a SQL solution, there might be Discoverer specific ways of doing this I do not know about.
OK, First try breaking your problem down into parts.
Outermost: DECODE(fruit,'APPLE', apple_only_section ,
fruit,'PEACH', peach_only_section ,
other_fruit_section)
apple_only_section: DECODE( color , 'RED', apple_red_section ,
color , 'GREEN', apple_green_section ,
other_apple_section )
// Here is where things get 'tricky' to try to determine date ranges.
apple_red_section: DECODE ( greatest( trunc(sysdate)-30,date_picked) ,
trunc(sysdate)-30) , 'BAD RED APPLE' ) ,
'GOOD RED APPLE' )
The 'greatest' statement above is key to doing date-ranges in a column,
And you should think about whether the dates should be truncated to remove the time component (as I do for sysdate above).
And once you have the sections like 'apple_red_section' that you know work, running independently, you start embedding them together to form the higher level statements.
You end up with hard to understand gobbledegook, but it does work.
The decode statement is tricky even for a programmer, so work in stages and get each part working before you try to combine them. Better yet get a programmer to write exactly what you want.

Writing an if-then statement

I would like to write an if-then statement that would hide an element (image of a pause button) when the main timeline is stopped. I have a play forward button that when pressed will switch to a pause button. The same happens for the play reverse button. This way the buttons are like toggles...press once it plays and press again and it stops. I have this working fine, but there are several stop triggers throughout the timeline, and when the animation is stopped my pause/play button will still be in the pause button mode, thus a user will not be able to restart the animation. There are too many of these stop triggers to make it practical to add a hide command to each to hide the pause button (thus making the play button underneath accessable), so what I would love is if I could write a statement that would hide both pause buttons whenever the timeline is not running.
I need to know the correct way to write the code and where to put it.
Thanks in advance,
Greg

Hi Joel...
you can view the test site here http://cyclesofyah.com/slider-test_screen-swap-test/
and you can download the files here http://cyclesofyah.com/chrono/cycles_test.rar
you won't see much happen until you click on the gear icon. While the timeline is running you can type any number on your keyboard, and it will take you to a stop trigger.

If you're having trouble making changes to files that are inside your home folder (represented by a house icon in the sidebar of a Finder window), or if you can't get changes to the settings of an application to stick, then please see below.
Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.

ISync erased my phone contacts, then it erased numbers in Address Book

Okay, long complicated story, hopefully made short:
- after syncing my Motorola Razr phone via bluetooth with iSync, I noticed all my contacts were gone.
- I tried syncing again, and there was no change
- I tried removing all the files from ~library/Application Support/iSync and then tried syncing again.
- Now, all the numbers that were previously stored in my phone, are now erased from address book, as well as erasing all events I had in iCal
- I did a Time Machine backup last week, so I have a backup of the system when address book and ical were normal
- I want to restore the numbers I lost both in address book, the events I had in iCal, and also get syncing back to normal.
Any ideas on how to do this would be gratefully appreciated. This is a rat's nest that I don't know how to untangle.

I have exactly the same problem.
I am using iOS 7 and Zimbra 8 using Active Sync protocol.

Customer Statement - Page Numbers

Has anyone been able to solve the page numbering problem on the statement report?

How to implement If and then logic in Numbers?

Having looked in the formulas section of both teh Help and User guides I can see that it is possible to compare using the IF function...and that produces a True or False output...but any further than that and I am lost. i can't seem to find the 'THEN' function....or a Copy function
I have a series of columns exported from a Pilot Logbook program in csv format
One column (A) is the pilots operating capacity (P1, P2, P1/us) another column (B) is total flight time
I need to create three new columns C,D,E (P1 P2 and P1/us)
I can see that in each cell of the new columns I need a formula which in words would read something like
IF contents of cell A1 = "P1" THEN copy/duplicate the value of B1 to C1
IF contents of cell A1 = "P2" THEN copy/duplicate the value of B1 to D1
IF contents of cell A1 = "P1/us" THEN copy/duplicate the value of B1 to E1
I have spent two days on this already, and all I keep getting is the little red triangle saying the formula contains a syntax error.
Am I perhaps attacking this problem in the wrong way...is there an easier way to do this?
Thanks
Neil

Hi Neil,
Further to Yvan's post, here's some general information regarding formulas and the IF function in particular.
Formulas always return a result to the cell in which they're entered. They can 'pull' information from other cells, but they cannot 'push' data into other cells. For example, a formula in cell C2 can fetch (and use) data from cell B2, but can place its result only into cell C2, the cell in which the formula has been entered.
The syntax for the IF function, as shown in the iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide is:
=IF(if-expression,if-true,if-false)
Another description would be: IF(THIS is true,THEN do this,ELSE do this)
if-expression is an expression that may be either TRUE or FALSE. An example from your case is:
A1="P1" ('the contents of cell A1 is the text "P1"
if-true is the instruction to follow when the if-expression is TRUE. (aka the THEN part)
In your first case, this is expressed using the cell reference 'A1', which means 'return the value stored in cell A1'
if-false is the instruction to follow when the if-expression is FALSE. (aka the ELSE part)
In your first case, this is expressed using the empty string ( "" ), which means 'return the text enclosed by the quotation marks' (which for "" is a text string of zero length, known as the empty string or a null string—as close as we can get, using a formula, to keeping the cell empty.
And a suggestion regarding using the Formulas and Functions User Guide:
Every function described in the guide comes with at least one example. If you're having trouble with a function, open a NEW blank spreadsheet, go to the guide and try one or more of the examples.
Unfortunately, both example for IF use text strings in the if-true and if-false parts.
Here's the first:
=IF(A5>=0, “Nonnegative”, “Negative”)
Try this version for an example closer to what you want:
Enter "Nonnegative" into C2 and "Negative" into D2 (leave off the quotation marks).
Enter this version of the formula into B5:
=IF(A5>=0,C2,D2)
Enter this revised version in B6
=IF(A5<0,D2,C2)
Try entering some numbers into A5. Both formulas fetch the data from the same cells and will show the same result for any number entered in A5.
Regards,
Barry
