Interactive report - Is there an easy way to expand the width of a column to allow for more data on a line.

Example.
One of the columns in my interactive report is labelled Notes.
The data in the column looks like
I really
enjoy
typing up
notes,
please
disregard
Is there any way to get this note all on one line - or atleast expand the width to increase or decrease the number of characters per line.
So either
I really enjoy typing up notes, please disregard
Or
I really enjoy typing up notes,
please disregard
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mikez,
You can also consider to render your "Notes"-column as a textarea, eg:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=vincentdeelen:23:
For the text area you can define the default number of rows and column width you want. You render a column as text area with an apex_item function:
select apex_item.textarea(3,NOTES,1,80) from MY_TABLE
Where 3 is the index number that you want your NOTES colum to have and 1 and 80 stand for row and column width respectively. When you use apex_item for a column, make sure to set that column as "Standard Report Column" under "Report Attributes".

  • Is there an easy way to clear the contents of Download Folder?

    Is there an easier way to clear out files (send to trash) from the downloads folder, other than dragging one by one? The downloads folder closes immediately upon dragging one file out.

    You do not need to invoke Finder to do this. Create a new empty Automator workflow and use the "Run Shell Script" option. Paste in the following....
    mv ~/Downloads/* ~/.Trash
    You can then save the workflow as an application, attach it as a Finder action or add it to the scripts menu, whichever you like better.
    If you would like to bypass the Trash and just completely delete the Downloads folder contents immediately, then paste in this command:
    rm -rf ~/Downloads/*

  • HT1660 is there an easy way to delete the whole itunes library and and start again. I notice there is only an add file/folder button but no remove facility

    I recently upgraded to the iphone 5 and managed to sort the transition out with little trouble but noticed when I tried to put my music on that Itunes has messed with album info and either it or me has generated several copies of the same albums over the years and it makes it quite dificult to sort it all out before reloading on the phone. To stop the chaos I had hoped to clear the library and start again but cant find a way to do it. I was hoping to sort all my music out in original files and consolidate them into a proper folder. HOw do I do this. I notice there is an add fole and folder button but no take away??? is there an easy way?

    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. If you have multiple references to the same files then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

  • Is there no easy way to change the computer that an iPhone is synched with?

    I have my iPhone 4 synched to an old Power Mac.  I just bought a new Macbook and want to transfer my iPhone info to this new computer so I can synch and update software from this new computer.  I am getting rid of the Power Mac.  Is there no easy way to do this?  I can't seem to figure it out.  I don't want to lose my info or iTunes library.  Apple is usually so intuitive, but this seems to be incredible complicated.  Any ideas?

    This link says "If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so".  I don't understand.  Isn't it ALL synched to my iPhone?  Isn't that why it's ON my iPhone?  This is absurdly confusing.

  • Is there any easy way to compare LIKE Addresses from one table, which contains 3rd party data, to another table, our database source

    We have a 3rd party that is supplying us data and we need to compare the addressing between the 3rd party data to our source database addressing. I'd like to make it somewhat flexible meaning I'd like to somehow use the LIKE comparison rather than comparing
    the exact address values. (I have noticed that the 3rd party addressing sometime has a leading <space> at the beginning of the address...why I'd prefer to use LIKE)
    Is there any easy way to do this? Or does this dictate using a CURSOR and processing through the CURSOR of 3rd party data and plugging in the address LIKE as dynamic SQL?
    Please let me know your thoughts on this and I appreciate your review and am hopeful for a reply.

    Yes, it's possible and there are a variety of options but it's may not be for the faint of heart.
    The last time I did it, I ended up taking several passes at the data.
    1st pass was a straight up comparison with no modifications or functions.
    2nd pass was the same but with all special characters removed.
    3rd pass involved splitting the numeric portion of address and comparing just the street numbers and used a double meta-phone function (kind of like a soundex on steroids) to compare the street names.

  • Is there an easy way to count the number of albums I have in my library?

    Hi, there is probably a very easy way to find out how many albums I have in my iTunes library - but I haven't discovered it yet! (looking for something a bit like word count in MS Word document?)
    Powerbook G4 15 1.67   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   my first Mac - where have I been!?!

    Click on the Library icon in the source list Go Edit->Show Browser.
    This will split the library window into subwindows listing each genre, artist and album, at the top of these windows it will show the total for each of these categories.
    Apart from being the easiest way to count your albums, it's also a really useful way to view the library or any playlist. You can turn off the genre subwindow through the general preferences.
    Hope that helps!

  • Paramerterized Interactive Reports - is there a quick solution to stop the query from executing when entering the page prior to user clicking go.

    Example
    Currently, when the user enters the page the interactive report runs (without the user hitting "go")and - indicates no data found because one of the "parameterized" fields is required and the sql is not setup for nulls.
    I'm Looking for a way to not perform a query  at all -------until the user hits go for the first time on the page - then each time they re-enter the page in the same session it would be ok to auto submit the query.
    I believe I can setup a hidden item and check on my interactive report E1 not null.  Then create a "computation" on "after submission" that would set this value to a value - say 1.
    I can seem to be able to get this to work however.
    In my interactive report - I'm wondering what "condition type" should I be using.  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    In this case I just have 2 parameters.  The goal is to allow the user to "pre filter" BEFORE rendering the interactive due to the possible size of the report.  This pre fliter could be by say- order type or region or branch etc.
    Right now, I believe its all one region - see below.
    My first attempt, I put a branch on the after submit on the go button and then put a condition on the interactive report.  This worked but caused a looping issue when trying to select a column on the interactive report itself.  My guess is , because that drop down was also using that same go button.
    Anyway, please advise how to best  "pre filter" prior to rendering an interactive report.  Should I have two seperate regions or can I use one region.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • Is there any easy way to move the cursor in a plot by just a mouse click?

    Right now I have to click at the cursor and drag it to the right position. I was wondering if there is an easy way to just do the mouse click to change the cursor (not dragging the cursor). I have only one cursor in the graph.

    Assuming that if you click the cursor that you want it to always move to the same position, I think that you could do what you want by calling the cursor's SetPosition method in the graph's CursorMouseDown event.

  • Is there an easy way to securely delete everything on my macbook PRO except for the OS and applications?  Giving my old Macbook to a family member.

    Is there an eay way to securely erase all information on my macbook Pro except for the OS and applicatios?  I'm donating my computer but want to eliiminate my files and info.

    Yes, boot to your install disk (start up while holding C key).  Go to Utilities>Disk Utility.  Choose erase and format your disk (make sure it's formatted as Mac OSX extended journaled).  There's is a button for security options.  Choose the 0 option (don't choose the multiple pass versions, or it will take forever, but that's extra security).  The 0 option writes a 0 in every location on the drive, and it takes a few hours.  It would take CIA or highly skilled hacker abilities to dig out any information.
    Once you wipe the disc, reinstall OSX.  You're done.

  • Is there an easier way to strip the video to leave just the audio in a clip?

    A friend asked me how to remove the video so as just to leave the audio in a clip.
    She said she had tried detaching and expanding the video, but even though she selected just the video, whenever she hit the delete/backspace  key everything disappeared.
    I couldn't find a way of doing it but suggested the old trick of simply exporting the clip as  audio only.
    It seems a bit convoluted so is there a quicker way?

    I have just realised that this is not quite the solution I thought it was.
    The gap is almost like an invisible clip which prevents anything being added to the timeline above the audio.
    Yes, you can attach another clip above the timeline but it's not exactly elegant.
    It appears that the only way to get rid of the video to leave an uncompromised audio clip is to Share>Audio Only and re-import.

  • Is there an easy way to adjust the touch screen on an Image Class MF7480?

    When we try to hit the System Monitor button, the Special Features button activates. It used to be that if you put your fingernail on the very bottom of the screen, you could activate the System Monitor button. It's a great printer, but this is frustrating.

    Hi Brooks!
    It sounds like cleaning the touch panel might resolve the issue. Try powering the MF7480 off and cleaning it with a clean, dry, soft cloth.  Be sure to get around the edges of the System Monitor button.  If the Special Features button still activates, the MF7480 will likely require service.  Call us at 1-800-OK CANON (652-2666), Monday - Friday, 8 AM to 8PM ET.  We can give you some service options from there.

  • Is there an easy way to use the VMware Studios Open Source download?

    I noticed there was a relatively current open source download package for VMware Studio, so I downloaded it, hoping there were instructions on applying the new software to the appliance.  The download was a tar.gz file, which appears to include source code for those OSS packages.  
    So, I am concluding that my hope that this was an update to VMware Studio was unfounded.  
    Is there any news, at all, about plans to update VMware Studio?  It is obvious that a VMware-internal tool exists as they use it to create their own appliances which appear to have fixed some issues, such as IE10 access.  
    Thanks Dan

  • Is there an easy way to locate the cursor on a page?

    sometimes I have trouble locating the cursor. It gets lost in the page content.

    You can change the system-wide color of your cursor to something more easily findable (like a large black cursor). [http://www.ehow.com/how_6122649_change-cursor-color-windows-xp.html http://www.ehow.com/how_6122649_change-cursor-color-windows-xp.html]. Or you can read [http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_to_make_cursor_more_visible_windows_xp_winxp.html http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_to_make_cursor_more_visible_windows_xp_winxp.html], and tell the computer than when you it the Control key, it will automatically show you where the cursor is.
