Insert comment in Table cell/row

Is it possible to enter a comment in a specific table cell? When I try it only enters a comment for the whole/entire table. Thanks.

Yes you can. Click in the cell you want to make a comment about. The cell should get a blue line in dictating it is selected. Click on the Comment button in the tool bar.

How can I write into a table cell (row, column are given) in a databae?

How can I write into a table cell (row, column are given) in a database using LabVIEW Database Toolkit? I am using Ms Access. Suppose I have three columns in a table, I write 1st row of 1st column, then 1st row of 3rd column. The problem I am having is after writing the 1st row 1st column, the reference goes to second row and if I write into 3rd column, it goes to 2nd row 3rd column. Any suggestion?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

When you do a SQL INSERT command, you create a new row. If you want to change an existing row, you have to use the UPDATE command (i.e. UPDATE tablename SET column = value WHERE some_column=some_value). The some_column could be the unique ID of each row, a date/time, etc.
I have no idea what function to use in the toolkit to execute a SQL command since I don't use the toolkit. I also don't understand why you just don't do a single INSERT. It would be much faster.

Comment in Table Cells

I'm working in a table and what to add comments to some of the cells. When I click in to the text in a cell, the "Comment" on the Insert menu is greyed out (not available). If I select a cell, Comment is available but the comment bubble is positioned as central to the whole table. What I want is different comments in different cells - how do I do this?
Thank you
Ian

Hi Ian,
Welcome to Pages discussions.
Yes that would be a nice feature for sure.
If the ability to position comments is important to you please at the top of your screen to the right of the blue Apple click "Pages" then click "Provide Pages Feedback". This will send your suggestion to the Pages team directly. I've sent many as well.
Sincerely,

Inserting text into table cells in Powerpoint

Hi
I have a named table ClientInfo on Slide 3 in Powerpoint. How can I programmatically insert text into the table's cells?
Thanks
Regards

Hi Yahya,
What did you mean named table? Did you mean the name of shape?
If I understood correctly, we can use table object to manipulate a table shape on a slide. And here is a sample to insert text into the first cell for your reference:
Application.ActivePresentation.Slides(3).Shapes("ClientInfo").Table.Cell(1, 1).Shape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "Hello"
Also here are some helpful links for learning PowerPoint developing:
How do I... (PowerPoint 2013 developer reference)

How can I insert/move a table cell in Pages?

I'm making labels for tab dividers (specifically, for dividers in comic book boxes) and I'm trying to figure out how I can insert an empty cell in the table. Or move the other cells over/down and have them "wrap" from the end of the row to the beginning of the next row if neccessary. Can this be done?

KonKrypton wrote:
Jerrold, I can do that, but I was hoping for a way to "scootch over" the cells so I can keep them in order. That would require me to cut and paste every cell from the target cell to the end of the document (or page). I have a feeling that what I'm looking for doesn't exist.
Thanks, I appreciate the idea.
Kon,
It would be easy to move a group of rows, but there's no way to get it to snake down or up. This is a 2-D array, not not a linear array that has been meandered into a rectangle. You could write an expression to do this, but it would take several steps, and would involve a second table. You could also write an Applescript to do what you want. All of this seems a lot of work for what, as Peter notes, seems a rather simple result.

Cannot copy table cells/rows/columns

Every time I attempt to copy cells using dreamweaver 8.0.2 I
get..
When executing DWMenu_Edit_Copy command in menus.xml, the
following javascript error(s) occurred:
At line 77 of D:\Program FIles\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
8\Configuration\Shared\MM\Scripts\event.js;
Exception thown in native function.
Anyone know of a fix?

You can try this simple fix -
Quit DW.
Find this folder -
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
8\Configuration\WinFileCache-*.dat
(these folders are normally hidden - you may have to use
Explorer > Tools >
Folder Options to unhide them)
and delete it.
Restart DW. Works better?

How could I insert just a single cell in a table (not an entire extra row or column)?

I am having trouble making an easy edit. I need to insert an a 'CELL', but I am only being given the option to insert an entire 'ROW' or 'COLUMN'. I would like to just insert a cell and have the rest of the content below it move accordingly. Please help!

There's no way to set it so that you're just inserting a cell and everything moves along after that cell?
Simple answer is "No." Sorry.
InDesign tables are not good for juggling data. If you have a project that requires single-cell-insertion on a regular basis, I suggest doing your table outside of InDesign in an app with easier table-cell-juggling tools (Excel comes to mind here) and then perfecting you use of table and cell styles so that it's easy to update. It'll always be a hassle of some kind, of course, but the hassle can be minimized.

Inserting multiple checkboxes into a table cell

Hi all, new to Livecycle so I could use a little advice.
I'm trying to insert multiple checkboxes into a single table cell, but as far as I can tell that seems impossible as one checkbox fills the entire cell. Now how do I go about splitting the table cell into 2 rows so that I can insert both of the checkboxes?
I've also got to add a button to create new rows for the table on click so I don't know if that will factor into the answer.

How do I insert the tab character in a table cell in Pages 5.2?

I'm typing text in a table cell. I need to insert a tab in the text. I've tried all of the modifier keys with the tab. I read somewhere it would be CTRL>TAB, like Word, but that navigates to the Inspector.

You will need to add a Unicode keyboard. System Preferences > Keyboard > Input Sources. Click the + button in the lower left. Scroll all the way to the end and select Others > Unicode Hex Input. Select and Add this. Check the box that says Show input menu in menu bar. Exit System Preferences.
From the Finder menu, select your recent Unicode Hex Input source (it is a black box with white U+ in it). Now, position your cursor in your table cell between the characters where you want to insert a tab character. Press and hold your option key, then type 0009 (zeroes). This is the Unicode sequence for the tab control character. Space will open in your text. Tabs in table cells survive PDF export. The tab mark will not appear with Show invisibles enabled.
Switch back to your normal country input source in that Finder input source menu.

Is there a way to determine which rows are inserted in JDT1 table by the system automatically?

Hi,
Is there a way to determine which rows are inserted in JDT1 table by the system automatically? Example, many GLs which are mapped in GL Account Determination, like Foreign Exchange Gain / Loss, Rounding Account, etc. are inserted by the system automatically in the Journal Entry on various scenarios, like during Incoming Payment, etc.
Which SQL query can give me those rows? Basically the WHERE condition should be based on which column or multiple columns in JDT1 table?
Thanks.

Hi Rajesh,
I'm not entirely sure but I think the TransId is the same in the header that belongs to the transaction.
OINV.TransId = JDT1.TransId
Best regards,

How do i insert a picture into a table cell

I have this question too. It is very important for me to insert pictures into tables in order to complete my lab reports. This feature needs to be added; the software is useless without it. It is things like this that make me regret Apple purchases.

How can I insert a new table whose cells are linked to Cell Styles?

How can I define a Table Style so that cells in new tables are automatically linked to my Cell Styles? (Not sure if "linked" is exactly the appropriate word....I'm going for "connected in such a way that when the Style is changed, the character/paragraph/cell/table/object updates to reflect the change.")
I thought the whole point of using Cell Styles in Table Styles would be so the cells can be automatically linked to the desired Cell Styles when the table is created -- but that isn't happening for me. I don't know if I'm just confused or if this is a bug:
When I insert a new table of a Table Style I have defined, it seems all cells in the new table are simply linked to Cell Style [None], with overrides for each cell that are consistent with the applicable Cell Style as it was defined when the table was inserted. So although the appearance of each cell is consistent with the Cell Style I defined for for that region of the table, the cells don't update if I later make changes to the Cell Styles I defined.
(If, after inserting a new table, I manually select each cell and apply the desired Cell Style, then the cells do (of course) update when I change the Cell Styles.)
Is it possible to have cells be actually linked to Cell Styles when a new table is inserted, instead of cells being simply linked to style [None] with overrides?
(I'm using the up-do-date 2014 release of InDesign CC, in case that's relevant.)

there is a example on Page 1149 of book Graphic Java 2 mastering the JFC
by David M. Geary. ISBN: 0-L3-079667-0, Try to take a look the code. It will help.

Small issue with custom table cell editor and unwanted table row selection

I'm using a custom table cell editor to display a JTree. Thing i notice is that when i select a value in the tree pop-up, the pop-up closes (as it should) but then every table row, from the editing row to the row behind the pop-up when i selected the value becomes highlighted. I'm thinking this is a focus issue, but it thought i took care of that. To clairfy, look at this: Before . Notice how the "Straightening" tree item is roughly above the "Stock Thickness" table row? When i select Straightening, this is what happens to my table: After .

As I said, you have to have empty context elements before additional rows will be open for input.
For instance if you want to start with 5 rows available for input do the following to your internal table that you will bind:
data itab type standard table of sflight.
do 5 times.
append initial line to itab.
enddo.
context_node->bind_table( itab ).
The other option if you need n number of rows is to add a button to the table toolbar for adding more rows. When this button is pressed, you add a new context element to the node - thereby creating a new empty row in the table.

How do i set the background of the table( not of cell / row / column).

How do i set the background of the table( not of cell / row / column).
What happens when i load the applet the table is blank and displays the background color is gray which we want to be white.
We tried using the setBackGround but it is not working maybe we are not using it properly. Any help would be gr8.
Thanks in advance.

I don't understand very well, but i guess that the background is gray when the table content's empty, isn't it?
When the table model is empty, the JTable doesn't paint, so its container displays its background (often gray).
In this case, what you must do is force the table to paint, even if the model is empty. So, you have to create your own table and override three methods :
public class MyTable extends JTable
//specify the preferred and minum size when empty
myPreferredWidth = 200;
myPreferredHeigth =200;
myMinimunWidth = ...;
myMinimunHeigth = ...;
public Dimension getPreferredSize()
if(getModel().getRowCount() < 1)
return new Dimension(myPreferredWidth, myPreferredHeigth);
else
return super.getPreferredSize();
public Dimension getMinimumSize()
if( getModel().getRowCount() > 0)
return new Dimension(myMinimunWidth, myMinimunHeigth);
else
return super.getMinimumSize();
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
if (getModel().getRowCount<1 && isOpaque()) { //paint background
g.setColor(Color.white);
g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
else super.paintComponent(g);
}

How can i find the latest row inserted in a table

i have a table with five columns and there is no primary key and everyday 100's of rows will be inserted to this table ,infact by mistake i have inserted a row and i just want to find out which is the last row i have inserted in to this particular table is there any way to find out this please......

That's not guaranteed to give you the latest row added to the table. Oracle could place new rows anywhere depending on what happened to rows in the table previously, what space is available in the tablespace etc etc:
SQL> create sequence dt_test_rowid_seq start with 1 increment by 1;
Sequence created.

SQL> CREATE TABLE dt_test_rowid as
2 select     object_id,

5 from

7 where
8     object_id is not null
9 and
10     rownum <10000;
