Interpolated Data-Connecting Data Points

Does anyone know how to connect data points that are not sequential? For example, if I have a column with 15 cells and data in cells 1, 5, 8, 10, and 15. When I chart that data, I want those points to be connected with a line, rather than plotted as individual points. In Excel, you select interpolated from the main preference menu under charts. I've searched interpolation and have not found anything. I'm wondering if this function is called something different in Numbers?

The first method I posted works well if you don't need the "blank" categories/rows taking up space on your chart. But if you need to see the "blank" categories/rows, I have a table that I think will do a straight-line interpolation for you. I'm not sure it is error free but, if not, it'll be obvious when you chart it. I'm also not sure it was the simplest way to do it but a lot of the complexity was a result of my making it easy to add new rows to the bottom. I tend to brute force things so if someone has a simpler solution, I hope they post it.
Copy the table to your spreadsheet. Copy your data to the X and Y columns and your category labels to Column A. If you only have Y data then the X's must be a numeric series (like what's in the table now). Plot your X-Y (or Y-only) data as one series and the interpolated column as another series. Change the interpolated data points to "none" and change the line color if you want to (which I did not do below).

  • Using XFA javascript to refer to Data Connection data

    Is it possible to use XFA Javascript to refer to Data Connection data, without referring first to a field which is bound to a Data Connection.
    The aim of this is to track changes of certain fields by comparing a fields "newText" to the Data Connection's field.
    Also, is it possible to have Acrobat save data back to the data connection (ie. change the data connection data to reflect changes in the current form)

    Additionally, does anyone know of any documentation (preferably free) detailing the use of XFA Javascript in LiveCycle.

  • E5 Packet data connection/access point

    I was just wondering what this is.
    I think I don't need it being as I don't have a "Data Package" set up with AT&T...am I right?
    If I'm wrong, what to do next.

    This would be needed for internet access and mms usage on your phone. Internett access only if you're thinking about surfing on the network. Wlan does not require any data packet connection over the phone network but will be saved as an access point though.
    You will also need a packet data connection for using A-gps as it needs a few kb to locate the phone through the network.
    But you can use the gps without agps.
    So if you don't plan on browsing internett on the phone network, you don't need a packet data connection for that/ acces point.
    If you don't need to send mms, you don't need one for that either, but those acces points are separeted from each others.
    If you can not send mms, but you want to, you will probably be able to order the settings (accesspoint) from your providers web page. It will usually be in form of a text message sent to your phone. Same for the other access points.
    Did this help you in any way or was it just confusing?
    A Packet data connection will pretty much be an access point for internet/mms/wap over your network.
    Using you wlan will be installed as a access point too, but that will of course be free (or just cost what you pay to have your internett).

  • Entity Framework -  unable to select the oracle data connection

    Entity Framework - unable to select the oracle data connection from the wizard that allows you to select the data provider. Even though we successfully added a data connection that points to an oracle database, we still can't select an existing data connection or create a new database provider that points to an oracle instance.
    we are using both vs 2008 sp1 and vs 2010. We connect to oracle 11g and we use the latest oracle odp.net driver. the Driver is installed and working in vs studio.

    I had this exact problem when I started. I think I had downloaded the wrong odbc (the 64x version). When I unloaded that version and downloaded the 32bit version it worked.
    Hope that helps. ~ Darla

  • Excel 2013 data connection to SharePoint list - charts won't update unless i manually refresh

    I have a list called 'donations', and a connected workbook stored in an SP Document Library. On my sitepages homepage, I put an excel web part connected to a chart called "Total Donations". 
    I'm storing the Data Connection file on a Windows shared drive and I've given my Excel service account R/O to that drive. I'm using the Secure Store Service for my data connection, and it's refreshing data (but only when I open the Excel document).
    I think this is because I've set the data connection properties to 'Enable background refresh', and 'Refresh data connection when opening', and 'refresh this connection on Refresh all'. 
    When I do a refresh from the web part on the home page, nothing updates :(  Anyone want to point me in the right direction?  I was going down the rabbit hole on PowerPivot services (thinking cannon to kill a fly), but couldn't find anything relating
    to this particular use case.
    P.S. I don't want to use the 2010 Chart Part because it's a POS.
    Anyway, any direction would be helpful.  Thanks.

    Now before anyone points out the obvious: my username and password are correct. I've already gone through changing them so I know they are.
    Additionally, I've pretty much tried EVERYTHING I've read online, from messing with "terminal" (and subsequently the FTP and STFP options) to changing the sharing options and turning on file sharing/remote management as well as just turning off my Firewall completely.
    Now I've used Filezilla before when I first published my site and everything worked fine. My site is published through Wordpress so most of my editing was done through simply logging into my "wp-login." I recently changed the theme and in order to change the header image in that theme I have to do it through my "wp-content" folder, which means I need to use Filezilla. I feel like a complete moron right now considering I've had my site for about a year and can't even doing something this simple.
    I've read that the newer version of Lion/Mountain Lion don't support automatice FTP anymore, which (as I mentioned prior) I attempted to fix through Terminal. However, nothing I do seem to do works.
    Can someone walk me through fixing this? And I do mean 'walk me through'. I'm not a tech-savvy nerd who knows all the lingo, I just know the basics so sorry if my ignorance offends you.
    HELP!!

    First be sure login and password are OK. Sometimes the address starts wit "http://..." and sometime starts with "ftp://...". Try both normal FTP access and Scure FTP access (SFTP). At the end, contact the site's provider.

  • PDF form with XML data connection comes up blank at run time

    Hello All,
    I am a newbie to ADOBE Livecycle 9, but am very proficient in C#.  I would like to request for your guidance on the following issue.
    We have a desktop application in C#, WPF, Sqlserver. The requirement is to launch a Livecycle form from the application for the user to read/edit/save data
    I have done this much so far -
    Downloaded trial version of Livecycle 9
    Developed a interactive PDf form
    Created an XML based data connection. Generated fields on the form using the fields from this connection.
    Set the .XML file as preview source for the form
    the controls on the form are boumd to the xml data source
    In design mode, the form works fine, it displays my data correctly
    I have created a WPF form with a button. On click of this button, I call the Process.Start(pdf-file-path). My pdf is launched properly
    I have added a combo box to my WPF form. I select a parameter from this, then call a stored procedure which returns me a datatable depending on parameter passed
    Using the returned datatable, I have used the datatable.writexml and datatable.writexmlschema to create my XML and XSD files. as mentioned above, this xsd is used to create the data connection for the PDF and the XML for the preview source
    This is what I want to do -
    Launch the PDF from my WPF form, pre-populated with the newly created XML data from my WPF form.
    So basically, as the user changes the selection criteria from the combo box, the XML file data will change and the PDF file will be launched each time with new data.
    The XSD format will always be constant
    Problem -
    My XML and XSD get created properly, my PDF launches, but it is empty
    If I change my selection criteria and run the WPF application, and then open the PDF in design mode, it asks me whether it should refresh the XML source. This means that the PDF form is connecting correctly to the XML source
    So why then, does the form come up empty at run time?
    What link am I missing?
    I have found some sites that help using Web applications, but nothing for desktop applications. It would be fantastic if you could point me to some help for developing Livecycle forms with C# / SQLServer
    Your help in this case will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards

So I guess something is wrong with the decode-service in Barcoded Forms ES when I use compressed XML. But I can conclude since the ClearImage component can read the barcodes that they are compressed correctly.<br /><br />Can you help me with getting further with this problem?<br /><br />Sincerely<br />Kim

  • Using several data connections in one SSIS data source?

    I am loading data from several SQL Server 2012 databases into a datamart. Currently, I am simply using sql sources and destinations for that. However, some of the queries require JOINs between the source databases. Therefore I currently refer to the databases
    within the command text of the sql source, e.g.
        SELECT t1.Field, t2.Field
        FROM [server1].[db1].[dbo].[table1] t1
        JOIN [server1].[db2].[dbo].[table1] t2 ON t1.Table1Id = t2.RemoteTable1Id;
    This is flawed, since all the sql commands have to be changed if the database or server names change. It would be far better to refer to connections which can be changed on package level and my question is how to get that done.
    One way I can think of to get that done is to use several sql source queries and join the data with SSIS join operations. For that all current data flows need to be reworked and I am unsure about the performance when joining large databases compared to the
    performance of a single t-sql query.
    The other approach would be some dynamic sql stuff which I want to avoid whenever possible. However, if it was possible to use a parameter to insert server/database into the sql command somehow, then that could be an option.

    Whatever you're doing now is a bad practice inside SSIS. You should be using data flow tasks for this if data come from different sources and use connection managers pointing to each of them. You add these connection properties as config items which will
    enable you to change them from outside package based on your environment
    If performance is your concern you can go for staging approach where you bring deltas(changes) alone on daily basis and then use it in the comparisons with destination tables using MERGE or T-SQL for set based processing. You need to have audit columns in
    your tables for this though.

  • Problem with data connection in adobe forms using wsdl file....

    Hi Experts,
        I am tryning to create a adobe form in which i need to create a data connection using a WSDL file. But i am coing across the problem as cannot find the path of th url.
    i tried to create the WSDL in 2 ways and i came across the same error.:
    1) using the URL of the WSDL file generated
    2)alos saved the file as WSDL file on desktop, and used to create
    in both cases i am coming across the same error.
    Note: i am not creating using webdynpro, i am doing using ABAP.

    @ankur17
    Won't insult you by suggesting that you haven't already checked Settings > mobile network > Data connection = On, as you have confirmed already that Internet Sharing is working.
    You may need to go to Settings > about > reset your phone and see if by setting up phone afresh it reads settings and applies correctly from SIM card.
    Is Network Setup application included or available from Marketplace > Nokia Collection as might be worth running this application too?
    If this issue still remains you may need to have device software re-installed at Nokia Care Point to try to resolve this.

  • Nokia Lumia 1520 - Bluetooth and Data Connectivity...

    Hi - i recently updated my Nokia lumia 1520 with a new firmware that Nokia tool told me being available.  after that i have consistantly having bluetooth connectivity issues and Data connectivity issues.
    i have a Jabra Clipper bluetooth headset which .  i am no longer able to pair it. it detect and says jabra clipper, then starts pairing, then simply says couldn't connect.
    if i have wifi on, if i go out of range of the WIFI signal, my data connection stops working as well.  this is 100% of the time.  i have to reboot my phone to get data connectivity back.
    Its on Lumia Cyan
    manufacturer name: RM-937-im_mea3_1019
    core build id: 7030.80
    bsp release: 2061.0066
    applicatoin versoin: 3.11.2.1
    build creation date: 7/8/2014
    from Nokia software recovery tool:
    Product Code: 059V479
    Software Version: 02061.00066.14253.40002

    Because I am just an end-user like you and I do not have your hardware combination here, I can only give general advice. Could be a new interoperability issue between these two devices, introduced with Lumia Cyan. Could be a old wrong pair-key. Or could be interfering between your Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (Bluetooth Adaptive Channel Hopping). Therefore, let us start with the Bluetooth part:
    on the Nokia Lumia 1520, Settings » Wi-Fi » Off (to avoid any interference)
    on the Nokia Lumia 1520, Settings » Bluetooth » On
    (status: paired) tap and hold your Jabra CLIPPER » delete (if paired already)
    on the Jabra CLIPPER, press and hold the multi-function button until the indicator light is solid blue (approximately 6 seconds) to activate the paring mode
    Your Bluetooth headset should appear in your phone now. After you tapped on it, it should be paired successfully. Does it?
    If not, start over again and between step 1 and 2, power off both Jabra CLIPPER and Nokia Lumia 1520.
    If it still does not work, start over and between step 1 and 2, please hold volume down + power until the Nokia Lumia 1520 turns off (soft reboot; do not forget to set your date/time afterwards).
    If it still does not work, start over and between step 1 and 2, turn off your Wi-Fi access point.
    Does it work now?

  • How to consume the sharepoint online Library data to Excel sheet using ODATA connection. That ODATA connection file resides in "SharePoint Online -Data Connections Library"

    I have created a OData Connection to my Library and published to SharePoint online site.
    To refresh the data, property is set like "Refresh when opening file"
    When I downloaded and open the file, the new data is consumed to me successfully because this ODF file referenced to my local computer
    If any other user downloads the file its not opening as reference file points to my local machine.
    I want to keep this ODF file in "Data connections" Library (or in any site/Library) and establish the connection to the excel sheet. so that any one can use the ODF file.
    or else any other alternative to use ODF file globally and get the SP Library data to excel ?

    Hi,
    it will use the connection in the ADF library. I recommend though that you not save database connect information in the ADF library. Instead:
    - define the ADF BC model to use JDBC data sources
    - In the ADF library, configure it to only contain the data source name
    - In the view project (the workspace) configure the database connection exposed by the library
    When the library is imported, check Application Resources --> Connections and right click on the imported connection name to configure it

  • Permissions Issue with Infopath Data Connection

    I'm not really sure how else to title this....
    Issue - InfoPath Form on SharePoint 2010 gives 'You do not have permissions to access a SharePoint list that contains data required for this form to function correctly."
    It gives a correlation ID
    Log file shows
    "Exception Message: The form cannot run the specified query. The list could not be found."
    Note the look-up is to a SharePoint list on the same content database.
    We have two Web-Front End servers with a load balancer.  We've had a number of other permissions type issues when the 'token' gets switched from one server to another, so we have the HOSTs file on each server pointing back to itself, so that once a
    server is 'grabbed' it stays on the same one.
    The error we are having currently, only seems to be occurring on the first Web Front End Server.
    Also we have sharepoint setup with an address of
    http://sharepoint.domain.com as well as an alias. http://sharepoint.
    The error we are having currently, only occurs if I use the fully qualified domain
    " http://sharepoint.domain.com" on the InfoPath data connection.  If I use the shortened alias, the error does not occur.  That is the current/easy solution, but I would like
    to fix it 'correctly' if possible.
    So, it appears to me that only on one of the Web Front End servers, it isn't liking the fully qualified path when doing a data connection.

  • Excel 2013 crashes when creating VFP OLE DB Data connection

    Hi all,
    I don't know how often the DBF format is used in Office but it seems some demand still exists because Microsoft created 64 bit version of dBase ODBC and OLE DB driver (in Access data engine). Then I don't understand why Microsoft ignores its own FoxPro
    DBF data format because FoxPro ODBC driver is not supported already and no 64 bit version of VFP OLE DB driver is planned...
    I am testing DBF file import to Excel 2013 (32 bit) but it crashes instantly. I have VFP OLE DB driver (the last version), some small DBF file, and I am trying to read it as external data in Excel.
    Steps to reproduce (menu prompts are translated, so some differences may occur):
    Open empty worksheet
    Click "Other data sources" on Data ribbon
    Select Data Connection Wizard and from the list of available drivers select "Other" and click "Next"
    A list of OLE DB providers installed appears, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro and click "Next >>"
    Excel 2013 crashes...
    This process works in Excel 2010 and 2007 so the problem must be in Excel 2013...
    The question is how to read DBF data in FoxPro format when there is no older Office version available?

    To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Excel
    Open an Excel worksheet.
    From the Data menu, point to Import External Data, and click
    Import Data.
    In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
    In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
    In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
    The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
    To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Word
    Open a Word document.
    From the View menu, point to Toolbars, and click
    Database.
    On the Database toolbar, click the Insert Database icon.
    In the Database dialog box, click Get Data.
    In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
    In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
    In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
    The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
    To add a Visual FoxPro database or table folder
    On the Connection tab and in the Select or enter a database name box, type path and name of the database or table folder you want. 
    -or- 
    To browse for a Visual FoxPro database or table folder, click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the
    Select or enter a database name box to open the Configure Connection dialog box.
    Specify a different collating sequence if desired.
    To test the connection, click Test Connection. If connection is successful, click
    OK.

  • Using Crystal Report Data Connection in Xcelcius 2008

    The documentation does not explain how data to populate row, column and details is passed to SWF.

  • Data Connection to MS-SQL using Windows Auth from untrusted machine

    We have an Excel Spreadsheet that uses a Data Connection to a MS-SQL database.  The database server is joined to our domain, and Windows Authentication is enabled.
    Here is a sample of the connection string (with revealing info obfuscated):
    Description=DataConnection;DRIVER=SQL Server;SERVER=10.x.y.z;UID=domain_user;Trusted_Connection=Yes;APP=Microsoft Office 2010;DATABASE=DatabaseName
    And the Authentication Settings are set to "Windows Authentication"
    This works perfectly fine from a domain-joined / trusted machine.  It doesn't even ask for credentials; it just works flawlessly when I hit Refresh.
    It will work from a non-domain / un-trusted workstation, if I use SQL Authentication.  But we are trying to move away from that.
    Likewise, it will from a non-domain machine using Windows Authentication if I use "runas" to launch Excel with domain credentials, as follows:
    "runas /netonly /user:domain\user %path-to-excel%\excel.exe"
    However, using "runas" is a kludge, and our employees will almost certainly have issues... even if I were to create batch files to help automate it.
    When launching Excel normally (without using "runas") from a non-domain machine, it gives this error when I hit Refresh:
    Upon hitting OK, I have the option to un-check "Use Trusted Connection" and manually enter a user/password.  I put in a valid user that would be able to connect fine from a domain-joined machine, or that worked fine using "runas".
     This is the error it gives with that:
    At this point, I have not a clue what to do to get Excel to successfully connect with domain credentials from a non-domain machine. 
    Ideas?

    Hi ltwally1,
    From your description, you want to connect to non-domain machines using domain credentials. Based on my research, you can use the
    ShellRunAs utility to achieve your requirement , it provides functionality similar to that of RunAs to launch programs as a different user via a convenient shell context-menu entry. 
    Reference:
    How to Run Programs as a Domain User from a Non-domain Computer.
    However, if you still encounter issues by using  ShellRunAs utility, you can consider to use the Credential Manager built into Windows. For more details, please review
    this similar
    blog.
