Is it possible to force only a single evaluation of a function?

I am only an occasional user of numbers...
The question: Is it possible to force a single evaluation of a function like TODAY() ?
i wanted to place the current date into a gas milage numbers document, and I foolishly
used =Today().
Well the second time I entered the date as above I noticed that the previous entries had
of course been changed to the current date ;(
ie the Today function is re-evaluated whenever the spreadsheet is re-opened.
Is there a slick way of forcing a single evaluation of functions like Today() ?

Badunit,
I have a keyboard shortcut for Insert > Date & Time that has been working faithfully for about two years now. Prior to that I hadn't had good luck, so it may be my choice of key combination that I assigned to this action. If you'd like to try it, I use:
Shift-Option-Command-D

Is it possible to requery only a single row of a multi record block?

Hi,
I have a data block say "Employees". This is a multi record block.
Requirement: Two users are working on the same form (front end). Now the user1 has made change for EMP1 The same is not reflected in the User2 Session. Hence i need to requery the values updated for EMP1
Issue: Since there lots of employees listed in this block. i do not want all the employees details to be required (Block requery). Instead is it possible to requery only a perticular record to be required?
Thanks,
Vidya

I think not possible........
Usually Approach is the data in grid table displays as read only and when user press EDIT button then they can edit one single record in a separate window.
ooh got one idea.......
may be create a save point and rollback to that particular save point ....... i hv never tried it but try it might solves your problem
there is a feature of Clear_form rollback to save point
PROCEDURE CLEAR_FORM
(commit_mode    NUMBER,
   rollback_mode NUMBER);
Parameters
If the end user has made changes to records in the current form or any called form, and those records have not been posted or committed, Form Builder processes the records, following the directions indicated by the argument supplied for the following parameter:
commit_mode     ASK_COMMIT Form Builder prompts the end user to commit the changes during CLEAR_FORM processing.
DO_COMMIT Form Builder validates the changes, performs a commit, and flushes the current form without prompting the end user.
NO_COMMIT Form Builder validates the changes and flushes the current form without performing a commit or prompting the end user.
NO_VALIDATE Form Builder flushes the current form without validating the changes, committing the changes, or prompting the end user.
rollback_mode     TO_SAVEPOINT Form Builder rolls back all uncommitted changes (including posted changes) to the current form's savepoint.
FULL_ROLLBACK Form Builder rolls back all uncommitted changes (including posted changes) which were made during the current Runform session. You cannot specify a FULL_ROLLBACK from a form that is running in post-only mode. (Post-only mode can occur when your form issues a call to another form while unposted records exist in the calling form. To prevent losing the locks issued by the calling form, Form Builder prevents any commit processing in the called form.) Edited by: BaiG on Apr 12, 2010 3:49 PM

May EP(MSS, ESS) use only a single universal system alias?

I notice that SAP tends to use different aliases such as SAP_ITS_XSS, SAP_ITS_MSS, SAP_ECC_TrainingManagment, etc
for different iViews.
Is that possible to use only a single universal alias for all purposes?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Linda,
Yes, It is possible. If you think that your backend data coming from only one backend system, then you can create you custom system Landscape and but you need to manually assign system onject in all ivews(System parameter in Iview object) in ESS business content in portal content.
It is better to create SAP_ITS_XSS, SAP_ITS_MSS, SAP_ECC_TrainingManagment in system landscape if you are one or multiple backend system, then you don't need to manually update system object in iviews.
Hope it helps

Is it possible to force 16/32-bit stack alignment without using the optimizer?

The compiler emits code targeted at the classic Pentium architecture for the -m32 memory model. I'm running into problems mixing Sun Studio compiled code with code built with other compilers because the other compiler builds under the assumption that the stack is 16-byte aligned.
The only way I've found to force Sun Studio to comply with that restriction is with -xarch={sse2a,sse3,...}, but this causes the code to pass through the optimizer. As noted in the documentation, if you want to avoid optimizations you must remove all flags that imply optimizations -- that is to say, there's no way to disable optimizations once enabled. This should not, however, be treated as an optimization because it's an ABI requirement.
I've scoured the documentation, spent many hours googling, digging through forums, and asking questions.
The best I've come up with is the -xarch option which is sub-optimal because it has side effects. I tried -xchip=pentium4 (this is what my other compilers have set as their default target), but the generated code doesn't force 16-byte stack alignment.
Is there a way to force the compiler to emit code conforming to a different ABI without using the optimizer?
-Brian

Thank you for your response.
I hope you won't mind my asking: do you have a way to prove that it's not possible to force 16-byte alignment without using the optimizer? I ask because your username / profile don't give the impression you work for Oracle, so while I think you're probably right it's at least possible that we're both mistaken. I haven't been able to find any documentation on either stack alignment or altering the targeted ABI short of using the -xarch flag, and even there the details are fairly sketchy.

Hi,
This you can do it in two ways:
1. Make three header under top level....one Product A, 2nd Product B ( as Billing element) and third as Common expense ( only cost). Now 1st & 2 nd WBS, you have to have sales order linking with individual lint item, for third you will accumulate all the common expense till the period end then make a reposting of the same in desired proportion to both products WBS hierarchy
(This is if you want to have a track on the common expense as well.......like planning, budgeting & control)
After this reposting, run RA for individual billing element and hence you will all the complement detailing and control over Revenue and expense with respect to Product A and Product B individually.
2. If you don't want to maintain that kind of detailing the common expense and keep track of it through project, then have cost centers accordingly and make an assesment/ distribution with respect to expenses accumulated at those cost centers for the period to the respective WBS under each product. Then execute the period end processes for the project.
Or
You can try with have two more line items in the costing sheet as an overhead against common expenses with respect each product.
I hope this should help you.

Is it not possible to give the select single field without an into clause

Hi,
i have to check whether my input value( only one filed) is available in the table.
for eg i need to check whether company code is available in the table t001.
then i will give .
data lv_bukrs type t001-bukrs.
lv_bukrs = 1010.
select single bukrs from t001 where bukrs = lv_bukrs.
here its asking for me to give a vaible to store the bukrs that is
select single bukrs into dummyvalue from t001 where bukrs = lv_bukrs.
Is it not possible to give the select single fieldname without an into clause

Its Possible by declaring the tables statement
<b>tables : AFKO.
select single * from AFKO where <condition>.</b>
If SINGLE is specified, the resulting set has a single line. If the remaining additions to the SELECT command select more than one line from the database, the first line that is found is entered into the resulting set. The data objects specified after INTO may not be internal tables, and the APPENDING addition may not be used. The addition ORDER BY can also not be used.
An exclusive lock can be set for this line using the FOR UPDATE addition when a single line is being read with SINGLE. The SELECT command is used in this case only if all primary key fields in logical expressions linked by AND are checked to make sure they are the same in the WHERE condition. Otherwise, the resulting set is empty and sy-subrc is set to 8. If the lock causes a deadlock, an exception occurs. If the FOR UPDATE addition is used, the SELECT command circumvents SAP buffering.
Notes
When SINGLE is being specified, the lines to be read should be clearly specified in the WHERE condition, for the sake of efficiency. When the data is read from a database table, the system does this by specifying comparison values for the primary key.
If accessing tables for which SAP buffering is planned for single records, the SAP buffer is bypassed if the addition SINGLE is not specified. This behavior depends on the current implementation of the database interface and may change in future releases. In particular, it should not be used to bypass the SAP buffer. You should use the explicit addition BYPASSING BUFFER for this instead.
The addition SINLGE is not permitted in a subquery.

Slideshow page appears to load all images at once making it very slow. Is it possible to force it to load just the required items for the immediate page / slide

Hi Everyone
First post and a Muse / Web Noob.
Im building my personal website with muse ( CC and now CC 2014 ) , its quite simple with slideshows embedded inside each other and is just 4 pages in total.
My two slideshow pages appears to load all images at once making it very slow ( plus 20 secs on my system ). Is it possible to force it to load just the required items for the immediate page / slide. It would be so much faster and would work much better in this particular situation.
Ive built all the images and icons at the correct size so optimisation shouldn't be an issue. The whole site is only about 42mb.

Oh well the problem seems to have fixed itself. It seems it was either a Java or Tumblr problem because the same thing happened when I installed Chrome. It is a lot more stable now and no more crashes yay.

Ipod will only play single songs

i am not extremely adept with technology but i know some basics, i'm having trouble with my 30GB ipod video, it will only play single songs, if i choose an artist with more then one song in that category it automatically zooms through them all rapid fire and then returns to the main menu... i have no idea why or how this is happening, is it possible i have a virus of some type? if so, how can i get rid of it or fix this problem? i have tried resetting it several times and syncing several times, nothing has changed.... also my second problem is that the videos i have on my ipod will play but they do not play any sound...i am more concerned with the first problem tho. if anyone could offer some advice or help it would be greatly appreciated.

Do the songs play in the iTunes? However, usually if an iPod scrolls through all of the songs instead of playing them it is a software issue. I'd try restoring the iPod to factory settings and syncing the music again.

Also, with your second issue. Where are the videos from? If they were something you imported on your own check this out:

Is it possible to display only dynamically selected fields in the out put?

Is it possible to display only dynamically selected fields in the out put? i need to display set of columns in the selection criteria, but in the output i have display only input given fields. because i need to convert it into .csv file. So i have to display selected fields from internal table. In oracle they are using"execute immediate". is there any equivalent in SAP?
thanks in advance.

Hi Remya,
Are you talking about dynamic programming in ABAP ?
If yes, there are concepts like RTTS which facilitates it.
Yes, the select query also supports dynamic selection of fields. ( Please care about ( ) in dynamic sql ).
Do more research on Field Symbols and statements like ASSIGN COMPONENT OF.

Philip.

Is it possible to update only a part of my apps

Hi, I would like to upgrade my apps, but my iPad2 writes that I don't have enough memory. Is it possible to upgrade only a part of the apps? In the appstore, you can chose either all of them or nothing.
Thank you!

You can update all, or download select App updates one at a time by selecting the app update you want to install.

Is it possible to share only a part of contact.

Hi,
Is it possible to share only a part of an contact? For example: If you have more nubmers and data for one contact (mostly we do) and would like to send someone only one number and not the rest of contact`s data (personal)? I know that on some other phones this is possible. Thanks for answers.

Password protect the Mac Mail app is useless,and would not prevent access to your mailboxes.Your email is stored in files under your home folder,so you must password your mail folder.

Refreshing only the single row of ADF Table

Hi All,
I have a webcenter application where the ADF Applications has been deployed.Now the Data is coming onto the ADF Tables from a webservice.In that particular table i need to refresh only the single row(whichever selected by the user to edit ) or even a particular field with the updated values as well as need to validate and to create a message box saying about the errors if the validation goes wrong.
Please suggest!!

Hi,
if "updated value" mean that the value got changed on the middle tier (not the browser client) then the update requires the table to be partially refreshed. If the user edits a row and in this row has dependent fields, then this can be achieved by partially refreshing the column. Note that ADF Faces tables don't refresh just one cell
