Issues with a formula in multiple cells

I have a simple formula in cell H6. It's "=C6-H4". I'm trying to get a long row of cells below it to create similar formulas, namely: =C7-H4, =C8-H4, and so on. The C cell increments by one and the H cell stays the same. There's got to be an easy way to do this. If I highlight the original formula and drag it down, the new formulas it generates increments both the C and the H cells (=C7-H5, =C8-H6,...). Short of editing each cell, is there a quicker way to do this?

H6=C6-H$4
Must use an absolute reference. In this case it is an absolute row.

Struggling with Applying Cell refences of formulas to multiple cells

Probably a basic question- I am new to Numbers.
Ive been struggling for ages with applying a formula or cell reference to more than one cell at a time. If I select multiple cells (shift or command clicking them) - then I am unable to create a new 'Cell References'. Pressing the equals = sign merely gives me an error sound. And the formula bar is not accessible
I have been struggling with this on and off now for about a week. Help - well it doesn't help and implies that I am doing the right thing, but it is not working. - Please help

A better use for your time was to read carefully *Numbers User Guide* and *iWork Formulas and Fucnctions User Guide*.
We may insert a reference to a range of cells in a cell's formula but we can't insert a formula in several cells with a single task.
The correct protocol is :
insert the formula in the first cell of the range then use the fill down (or fill up or fill to the right or fill to the left) feature.

Printing Issues with HP D145 and multiple users from G5

Hi - I've a HP D145 All-In-One connected via USB to a G5 (as described below). The machine has multiple accounts on for different members of my family. The printer is directly connected to the G5 via USB connection but is shared with other Macs. Printing has become increasingly difficult, and we now have the following problems:
1. Printing will only work from the administrators account.
2. Printing periodically (daily, generally after a few hours of use) stops from the administrators account
Solutions tried:
a. Check set up for the non-administrators accounts....Looks OK for printing
b. When printing stops - I've tried repairing the permissions with the Disk Utility. This no longer works.
c. Run Printer Setup Repair (with option to repair all user accounts) - Works for the administrators account providing the computer and printer are restarted, otherwise no effect.
d. Reinstalling the software - No effect
It’s beginning to look like I need to replace this printer with one that works.
You can help me in two ways - how to solve the printer problems, or alternatively suggest a colour All-in-One printer that can work with multiple accounts and does not have the problems mentioned above.
Many thanks in advance,
Regards,
Melvyn

Below I've copied the fix HP proposed and some additional information that they have sent me.

Sincerely,
2. The reasons why it may not have worked:
We need to be sure that you are fully logging out of one account and
then back into the next. The fast user switching feature of the Mac OS
can create problems with our printer drivers. For this reason, fast user
switching is not supported by HP.
The other issue we may be running into would be the Mac OS itself. Over
the past few months the Mac OS has gone through several updates. When
the 10.4.4 version was released it created some issues with our existing
software. An updated version of our software has been developed which
works well with 10.4.4 and higher, but it is not available for this
printer.
It may be that as each new OS update is installed on your computers that
the issue becomes worse. If you are running the Mac OS 10.4.3 or lower
then the version 7.3.1 of our software should work fine. If it is 10.4.4
or higher there will be some issues as the new OS versions do not seem
to like the older drivers.
I would have to recommend retrying the full uninstall the Derek had
outlined. This time however, just install the downloaded 7.3.1 software
from our web site for the D145. Once it has been installed we need to
test it fully without adding the scanjet software. I am hoping that
without both version of our software installed it may work better.
This should resolve the issue. If you need further assistance, please
reply to this message and we will be happy to assist you further.
3. The repsonse to questions on switching and OS X 10.4.4
You are correct, since you are running the 10.4.4 I cannot guarantee
that the older software version will allow full functionality. It should
allow for printing and as long as you avoid the fast user switching,
when trying to print, it should keep working well.
I understand the convenience of fast user switching but you will have to
log completely out of one user, and then log properly into the next
before you can expect the printer to function.
I would still recommend trying the steps I had outlined as it really is
the only thing you can do that may work.

Issue with Member Formula written for Balance Type

Folks,
I am facing an issue with a member formula written for a balance type dimension,
The code says
IIF( IsUda([Accounts].CurrentMember, "BalanceSheet"),
CASE
*WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[YearTotal]) THEN MISSING*
WHEN IsLevel([Time].CurrentMember, 0) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q1]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[MAR])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q2]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[JUN])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q3]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[SEP])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q4]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[DEC])
END
,MISSING)
Outline Structure for Time dimension looks like below
+Time
--|+YearTotal
------|+Q1
----------|+Jan
----------|+Feb
----------|+Mar
The highlighted Part of the code works good for all the Measures which is With the UDA tag BalanceSheet, Except if the Measure with BalanceSheet UDA is a Parent Member.
Parent Level Measures are populated with Data(populating Dec Data) instead of showing #MISSING.
Any help on this issue will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Gurus,
I raised an SR with Oracle support and they have replied by saying that, In EPM 11.1.2.4, the IE11 is only supported for interactive reporting and we will have to use IE 10 & 9 for workspace.
Yes. It works fine in IE 10 & 9.

Issue with DB Adapter involving multiple tables

Hi,
Am facing an issue with DB Adapter with multiple tables. Here are the details.
I have 4 tables. Header, Details,Products and Devices. The relationship is defined as follows:
Header has 1:M relationship with Details.
Details has 1:M relationship with Products.
Products has 1:M relationship with Devices.
I want to select the details from all the tables for a particular header_id and detail_id. Defined 2 parameters and query is created with parameters.
SELECT DISTINCT t0.FILE_NAME, t0.UNIQUE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER, t0.HEADER_COUNT, t0.TOTAL_DEVICE_COUNT, t0.FILE_DATE, t0.FILE_SEQ_NUMBER, t0.DEVICE_COUNT, t0.PHONE_TYPE, t0.PHONE_OWNERSHIP, t0.TRANSACTION_TYPE, t0.PURCHASE_ORDER_NUMBER, t0.CUSTOMER_ID, t0.CUSTOMER_DEST_SUFFIX, t0.LOCATION_DESTINATION, t0.MASTER_FACTORY_ORDER, t0.MASTER_FACTORY_ORDER_LINE_NUM, t0.ENT_ORDER_NUMBER, t0.DELIVERY_IDENTIFICATION_NUM, t0.UEDF_REVISION_NUM, t0.STATUS, t0.INBOUND_BPEL_INSTANCE_ID, t0.ERROR_DESCRIPTION, t0.INBOUND_FILE_VERSION, t0.CREATED_BY, t0.CREATION_DATE, t0.UPDATED_BY, t0.UPDATE_DATE FROM EDF_HEADER_STG_INT t0, EDF_DETAILS_STG_INT t1 WHERE (((t0.FILE_NAME = #file_name) AND (t1.EDF_SERIAL_TYPE = #prod_type)) AND (t1.UNIQUE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER = t0.UNIQUE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER))
I expect the DB Adapter to retrieve the records for the parameters passed. i.e only those records from details table which matches with the parameter I passes in (t1.EDF_SERIAL_TYPE = #prod_type) . But I see that the DB Adapter retrieves all records from the details table for a particular unique_sequence_number(unique_sequence_number is primary key for headers table and foreign key for details table). Could you pls tell me how can I retrieve only selected records from the details table?
Regards,
Meenu

Yes. When I run this query in DB, I get one record . While defining DB Adapter, I have imported 4 tables and also defined the relationship between the tables. In my case, column unique sequence number is primary key of headers table and foreign key of details table.The above select query is generated by the DB Adapter for the parameters I have passed in.
My data is as follows:
Headers table:
file_name uniq_seq_num
file_1.xml 220
Details table
product_id unique seq num edf_prod_type
111 220 A
112 220 B
113 220
Now, I call DB Adapter with parameters 'file_1.xml' (file_name)and 'A'(prod_type). I expect the DB adapter to retrieve only one record with product_id 111 in the detailscollection. But I see that the adapter retrieves all records from the details table without considering the value of prod_type.

Having issues with patches that require multiple reboots in a task sequence?

Are you guys having issues doing a build and capture or deployment, while including the recent patches ?
It looks like another patch is requiring multiple reboots which breaks the task sequence...
Long story short... the last time I created a .Wim file was in June (with ZTIWindowsUpdate) - it included all the patches as of June 2014. This image has been deployed since then with no problem. All the other monthly patches (07/08/09/10/11/12/01) can be
installed successfully through the deployment task sequence with no problem.
Then last week, I decided to create a new .Wim file to include all the patches as of January 2015. In my build and capture step, it exits because one of the updates requires multiple reboot. I checked on the following website and it has not been updated
since October 22nd : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2894518
Do any of you experiences issues with a WSUS that requires multiple reboot recently ?
Thanks!

As mentioned, the MDT offline updates task will do it. Add it to your build and capture and it will do the work for you using the updates in an update package that you've previously created. Alternatively, use a stand-alone instance of MDT to create your
image (using a build and capture TS of course) -- this can then use a stand-alone instance of WSUS to install the updates into your image which you then import into ConfigMgr.

Issue with Measure formula

Hello friends,
I am having an issue with the following MDX script. I have separated out all the IIF Conditions to make it easy to read. This is a periodic measusre.Liability, income and expense accounts appear just fine. However Asset accounts' 2011.Q3 and 2010.total values are just blank. please advise.
IIF ([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="INC",
-MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],
IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="EXP",
MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],
IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="AST" AND [DATASRC].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID")="CTA",
MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],
IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="AST",
(MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],CLOSINGPERIOD([%TIMEDIM%].[%TIMEBASELEVEL%])),IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="LEQ",
-(MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],CLOSINGPERIOD([%TIMEDIM%].[%TIMEBASELEVEL%])),
-MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA])))))

Yes ZalakT . You are correct . I tried same and its retrieving blank when specified DATASRC or any dimension with ID comparison in measure formula .ie DATASRC.CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID")="CTA" or %ACCOUNTDIM%.CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID")="xxxx" .
I tried following way and it retrieved periodic totals for asset accounts . ie for 2011.TOTAL & 2011.Q1 its retrieving total of base months instead of closing period's value for asset accounts .
1) don't not change PERIODIC measure formula .
2) Add FORMULA property to DATASRC .Add new member CTA_CALC to DATASRC . In formula property of CTA_CALC specify
IIF([ACCOUNT].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="AST",[MEASURES].[SIGNEDDATA],[DATASRC].[CTA])
3) save some data in (CTA,PERIODIC) for both Asset & non Asset accounts . Retrieve same data from CTA_CALC .
let me know if it works .

Apply one formula to multiple cells without duplicating?

I'm looking for a way to enter a formula and apply it to multiple cells. I do NOT want to copy the forumla to all rows as I want the ability to easily change it. I'd like one formula that can modify all my pricing. I could easily have hundreds of values to compute and many tables....
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

jdr,
I think I understand part of the request:
I suggest you make two tables for the Items and Option prices.
Then make separate tables by option (I do not understand the options based on what you provided). I also do not understand the markup
In the table "Option 1"
rows 1 and two in the table are header rows
D3=IFERROR($B3×($A3÷$C3)×VLOOKUP(D$2, Item Price List::$A:$B, 2), "")
this is shorthand for... select cell D3, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
=IFERROR($B3×($A3÷$C3)×VLOOKUP(D$2, Item Price List::$A:$B, 2), "")
select cell D3, copy
select cells, D3 thru D7, paste
the formula I am providing addresses the bolded portion of the formula you provided:
function:
(((roundup (quantity / items-per-page,0) * price item [a,b,c or d]) * discount) + price option 1 + (quantity * price option 2) + price option 3) * markup
I think looking at what I have provided will assists you in forming the solution on you own or help you provide additional details to assist in understanding your request

Has anyone having an issue with the iphone 6 signal cell strength on Verizon?

Is anyone having an issue with the iPhone 6 signal on Verizon?

I'm having the same issue as most of you on this forum. my current OS is 4.3.5 and after a factory reset, the camera started working fine, however, once i done the restore the camera reverted back to the same issue - "the shutter on the screen wont open, and the still/video switch just flashes" - what is more strange is, i have the HP home&biz app installed and this has a camera function and the camera seems to work fine with that, therefore suggesting there is nothing wrong with the hardware and this is a software issue. I'm currently awaiting a member of the Apple support team to call me about this, will keep you posted. BTW - someone suggested, going into Location Services and switching off the camera and apparantly, the issue was resolved for them, unfortunatly, this didn't work for me extremly odd issue indeed!

Issue with BIS and location via cell network

I am having an unusual problem on my Blackberry 9850. This started happening randomly over the past few days, currently happening now.
Via the 3G network, from my home area (Eustis, Florida USA - ZIP code 32726) certain BIS functions do not work correctly.
I can not send BBM chat messages, I get the red "X " for the message, but I can receive them.
Web browsing to Google.com brings up the Google Mobile site for Argentina. When I try to adjust the language preferences back to English - United States, it just refreshes back to Spanish - Argentina.
However, if I turn on WiFi and allow the BIS to switch over to that, everything works fine.
I have already tried *228, option 2, several times. It only fixed it one time last week and then awhile later is was not working correctly again.
Any idea what is going on?

Got through to Verizon support this morning and they brought in a BlackBerry Tech on the line.
Turns out there was and still is an issue with the Verizon BIS server and they are working on a resolution, but no ETA.

Issue with date formula when running a report on the 1st day of the month

We have a formula that compares last month data against last year last month, the report runs on the 1st of every month although the report errors when it tries to run in January being the first month of the new year it tries to look for a month begining with Zero instead of looking back at decemeber which would be 12.
Does anyone any solutions for this issue?
Thanks,
Chris
Example of some formula's we have tried but none seem to work.
if {@MonthName} = "December" then year({CDCCHD.CDOPDT}) in year(currentdate)-1 to year(currentdate)-2 else year({CDCCHD.CDOPDT}) in year(currentdate)
OR
(if {@Last Full Month Name}= "December" then year({CDCCHD.CDOPDT})= year(currentdate)-2 or
{CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in lastyearytd else {CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in lastyearytd or
{CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in yeartodate)
OR
({CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in dateserial(year(currentdate)-1,month(currentdate),01)-1 to dateserial(year(currentdate)-1,month(currentdate)-1,01) or
{CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in lastfullmonth)
OR
if {@monthname} = "December" then {CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in dateadd("m", -28, (currentdate)) to (currentdate)-14 else {CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in dateadd("m", -14, (currentdate)) to (currentdate)

Chris,
Give these formulas a try...
Beg of Last Month
DateAdd("m", DateDiff("m",#1/1/1900#, CurrentDate) - 1, #1/1/1900#)
End of Last Month
DateAdd("m", DateDiff("m",#1/1/1900#, CurrentDate), #1/1/1900#)
Beg December of Last Year
IF DatePart("m",CurrentDate) = 1
THEN DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate) -2, 12,1)
ELSE DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate) -1, 12,1)
End December of Last Year
IF DatePart("m",CurrentDate) = 1
THEN DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate) -1, 1,1)
ELSE DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate), 1,1)
Note that the "End" formulas produce a value that shows midnight of the following day that you would normally expect to see... For example, if you are expecting to see 12/31/2009, it will show 1-1-2010.
The reason is that the formulas come out to be midnight of the day shown... So a range of 12/1/2009 - 1/1/2010 will include 12/31/2009's data but none of 1/1/2010... (12/1/2009 - 12/31/2009 would actually cut off 12/31/2009).
If for some reason your data is stored w/o time values then an adjustment would need to be mande.
HTH,
Jason

Numbers' Functions and Formulas in Multiple Cells, Tables, and Sheets

Hello,
I'm stuck with specifics that center around usage, and I get the funny feeling I'm overlooking a simple detail or two.
If I may, here goes.
I'm working with a single spreadsheet that has several sheets within it, and each sheet has an identical table. Each table is used to record various data, and I use an additional table in a separate sheet to consolidate some of the information, so that I can track results, at a glimpse, by looking at averages, totals, etc.
Each data table is organized for consolidation by tracking wins, ties, or losses. It is important to know that each data table only records a single win, tie, or loss along with its other applicable data. And on the actual consolidation table I am trying to tally specific data fields by the use of Numbers' functions and formulas, yet I wish to keep these tallied results organized by the determining factor of whether or not they were gathered from a table that recorded a win, a table that recorded a tie, or a table with a loss.
To illustrate, each table contains data fields that record start time, finish time, elapsed time, the day of the week, etc. Let's say I have eight tables, and the first two are winning tables, three more are tables that record a tie, and the last three are losing tables. For example, on my consolidated data table I wish to enter a function and formula capturing which of the eight tables are wins, ties, and losses so that I can, at a glance, see how much time elapsed to obtain the wins, ties, and losses. So then, in this example, for wins I want to determine which of those wins took 20 minutes, or which of them took 15 minutes, etc. So then, out of the two wins, let's say both of them took 20 minutes each. I need the numeral 2 to be counted and recorded on the consolidation table since only two tables match the criteria. And I would do the same for all remaining data fields (e.g., start time, finish time, etc.). Just so long as everything is determined by wins, ties, and losses, and then organized by the respective data fields. Simply put, this example determines a total of two wins that meet the data field requirement of 20 minutes. Out of the eight tables (one table per sheet) any other wins would then be organized according to the specific data in the elapsed time data field on it's data table (e.g., 5 minutes, 15 minutes, etc.).
The exact syntax structure of the functions and formula I'm unsuccessfully using follows below. It only seems to return a result of 1, and I think it is returning this value from the IF Statements. By the way, the Win, Tie, or Loss cell in each data table is cell formatted as a pop-up so I can either select None or 1. But in this example I'm basing this on the time period of 20 minutes, and out of the eight data tables I have two wins which also record the time period as 20 minutes, so I should see 2 and not 1 in the 20 minutes column of the consolidated data table. Also, I tried changing the syntax where I would type "=1" in the IF Statements, but it returned a result of =1, and if I don't include the equals sign and quotation marks the result just shows up as 1.
My Syntax:
IF(Trade 1::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win', 1, IF(Trade 2::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win',1, IF(Trade 3::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win',1, IF(Trade 4::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win',1, IF(Trade 5::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win',1, IF(Trade 6::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win',1, IF(Trade 7::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win',1, IF(Trade 8::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Win',1, IF(COUNTIFS(Trade 1::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)', "=20m")+COUNTIFS(Trade 2::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)', "=20m")+COUNTIFS(Trade 3::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)', "=20m")+COUNTIFS(Trade 4::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)', "=20m")+COUNTIFS(Trade 5::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)', "=20m")+COUNTIFS(Trade 6::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)', "=20m")+COUNTIFS(Trade 7::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)', "=20m")+COUNTIFS(Trade 8::'Data Recorded (1)' '* Time in Trade (in minutes)'))))))))))
Please bear in mind that the COUNTIFS portion of the above syntax structure is something I'm already successfully using to count the totals of other things not mentioned above, and I'm hesitant to delete it since it already works to my satisfaction when I want to, for example, determine the total number of overall wins. So, just for illustration purposes, I might have an overall wins column in my consolidation table that records how many wins there are, regardless of organization by elapsed time, or any other data field. In other words, the COUNTIFS syntax structure already works to my satisfaction. I'm not sure if it's possible to alter it so that it isn't so long, but what's there does work just when counting total numbers, as just mentioned.
In summary, I'm wondering which function I can use with the COUNTIFS function to determine which of my eight data tables are winning tables, but break those wins down further based on criteria like elapsed time, and in the above example the time elapsed is 20 minutes. As you may see above, I'm unsuccessfully using the IF function. Finally, I've looked at the function browser descriptions of things like LOOKUP, HLOOKUP, VLOOKUP, INTERSECT.RANGES, and a few others. And so far I haven't made good use of any of them the way I've done when I use the COUNTIFS function by itself when only counting overall totals. But now I must determine totals that meet certain criteria, as explained above.
Please help if you dare (smile). This is a huge project I'm undertaking, and so as not to cause confusion I have not included all of the details. But rather, I've taken a small sampling and set it to the side for experimentation. If this small sample works out to my satisfaction I can simply copy and paste the syntax in all other respective cells in the consolidation table, changing only reference locations, and perhaps conditions or values. One thing is certain, I don't intend on giving up on it.
Thank you for your time and advice.
Blessings!

Added image.

I'd like to edit the last paragraph of my second posting, but for some reason an entirely new posting is being created when I attempt to do this. So when reading this post, please use it to replace only the last paragraph of my second post containing the four inserted images.
Last paragraph begins:
In closing, I need each cell in each column of each row in my consolidation table to remain as is. I have my reasons for doing this, and they all serve a specific purpose. The only exception would be the formatting of the last three rows as footer rows. Most importantly, and I should have made this abundantly clear earlier, my apologies, I need a single function and formula in cell E7 of my consolidation table that will firstly determine which data tables are winning tables while secondly and simultaneously counting which of those winning tables have elapsed times of 20 minutes. Perhaps, now this better explains why my syntax is written the way it is written. In the example I provided, if the proper function and formula were written it would result as 2 in cell E7 in my consolidation table. If there is anything else specific you need of me in order to assist me, please request it. Thank you.
Last paragraph ends:
Additionally, to t quinn:
First off, thank you for returning to assist me. I really do appreciate your efforts. Please be aware that I'm avoiding going into details about each and every portion of my spreadsheet because I wish to avoid discussion that is off topic. As I stated earlier, I'm new to using these features of Numbers. My spreadsheet encompasses a much larger amount of data than I'm referring to in the example in my first post. But in my example I'm isolating just the information concerning what I'm now trying to accomplish to finish my spreadsheet project. Moreover, most of what I've done up to this point I was able to figure out on my own, or get help from watching videos on YouTube, or simply using the application help menu. Please be aware that I consulted all of these, repeatedly. I even contacted AppleCare, and was told this sort of support is not available. In spite of this, I've accomplished a great deal in my first large spreadsheet project. Please be aware that when I wrote my second post and specifically responded to you, I didn't want to be rude or ungrateful, and I still don't, but maybe the suggestions you and Hiroto made about gathering the count of wins, ties, and losses are something I've already done. I think I've done that separately. These counts are already in separate cells, and they are working fine. In my first post where I inserted only one image you can see examples of this in my consolidation table image, in cells B3 and E6. I apologize for not making this abundantly clear earlier. Furthermore, the portion of my syntax that shows the COUNTIFS is the exact way I accomplished this, and it is written the way it is written because I need separate sheets, each with their own data tables. Again, in cell E7 I need to determine which of the eight data tables that record wins are also recording 20 minutes, but I need this in a single function and formula with the result appearing only in cell E7. Once this is figured out I will adjust the syntax to do the same thing with every column (these are not shown but they exist) in my consolidation table for the last three footer rows, named Win Column Totals, Tie Column Totals, and Loss Column Totals. The last three rows being footer rows may not be necessary, and if so, I can convert them back to normal rows. Nonetheless, my consolidation table is counting the totals of all data in all data tables. This much I've already accomplished. Now I have one last function and formula I'm working on in order to determine which of the eight data tables record wins, ties, or losses while it simultaneously counts which of the wins, ties, or losses fall within certain categories like elapsed time, and this will be shown on my consolidation table only in the last three rows. Yes, I've gotten the total wins counted, and separately counted the total number of times 20 minutes was the elapsed time used, but so far, just looking at my consolidation table I don't know if the total number of times 20 minutes was used was with a win, tie, or loss. That's what I need to know now. Everything else is already accomplished. So then my consolidation table will show the totals for all data fields in my eight data tables as illustrated in cells B3 and E6. The last three rows of my consolidation table will break this down in a single function and formula with one row for wins, a second for ties, and a third for losses. And each of these respective last three rows will in the same function and formula determine if the win, tie, or loss also is one of the data fields in my eight data tables. How? By the use of columns in my consolidation table. Remember, each of my eight data tables are identical. In the example in my first post I only used one data field, elapsed time (Time in Trade), to illustrate in one column on my consolidation table what I'm trying to accomplish with all of the columns not shown in my consolidation table. Once this is figured out I can adjust it to complete the remainder of the consolidation table. Thank you, t quinn.
To all reading this and attempting to offer assistance, if for any reason I'm still not explaining myself clearly, please continue to ask me more specific questions. I realize it's hard to communicate this way, and if Apple allowed us to upload the actual spreadsheet it would make this entire forum a better place to communicate. But that's going off topic, so let's simply focus on the matter at hand. Thank you.
Blessings!

Issue with Drag/Drop of multiple rows from ListView

I am working on a sample application with 2 list views i.e. players and team, and implement drop and drop such that players can be dropped from one list view to the other. Everything is working as expected when there is single selection model is enabled on the source list view. However, if I enabled Multiple selection model and drag 2 or more rows from source list view to target list view, seeing the following exception after the drop is completed.
Exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Only serializable objects or ByteBuffer can be used as data with data format [subListPlayers]
at com.sun.javafx.tk.quantum.QuantumClipboard.putContent(QuantumClipboard.java:513)
at javafx.scene.input.Clipboard.setContent(Clipboard.java:230)
1) What should be the DataFormat used in order to be able to drag and drop multiple rows? Looks like we do not have for Object type, so I have created the following one which does not solve the problem.
   private DataFormat dataFormat = new DataFormat("subListPlayers");
2) I have made changes to support serialization on the data object which also does not seem to solve the issue. Tried by implementing Serializable interface as well as by implementing Externalize interface.
Can someone please guide if there is an easy way to implement this behavior?
Code:
public class Player
   private String name;
   public Player(String name)
      this.name = name;
   public String getName()
      return name;
   public void setName(String name)
      this.name = name;
   @Override
   public boolean equals(Object o)
      if (this == o) return true;
      if (o == null || getClass() != o.getClass()) return false;
      Player player = (Player) o;
      if (name != null ? !name.equals(player.name) : player.name != null) return false;
      return true;

Yeah, this is a pain. I filed https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-29082 a while back. Go ahead and vote for it if you are inclined...
I think the issue in your case is that the observable list provided by MultipleSelectionModel.getSelectedItems() is not Serializable. So even if you make your Player class Serializable, the list itself isn't. The first thing I would try, I think, is to make Player implement Serializable and then pass in an ArrayList instead of the observable list. So you can do
content.put(dataFormat, new ArrayList<Player>(playersListView.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItems()));
and
List<Player> player = (List<Player>) dragEvent.getDragboard().getContent(dataFormat);
teamListView.getItems().addAll(player);
If that doesn't work, a workaround is just to store the "dragged list" in a property:
final ListProperty<Player> draggedPlayers = new SimpleListProperty<Player>();
// Drag detected handler:
content.putString("players");
draggedPlayers.set(playersListView.getSelectionMode().getSelectedItems());
// Drag dropped handler:
if (dragboard.hasString() && dragboard.getString().equals("players")) {
     teamListView.getItems().addAll(draggedPlayers.get());
     draggedPlayers.set(null);

RE: Issue with the formula

hi,
I have one formula like below.
   X = - ' &0T_CMONV& / Actuals' +
          ' &0T_CMONV& / S&OP / &ZDPTPLN1&'.
   where &0T_CMONV& / Actuals = restricted key fig. with 0calmonth and Actuals key figure(&0T_CMONV& - text variable for cal month)
     and &0T_CMONV& / S&OP / &ZDPTPLN1& = restricted key fig. with 0cal month and Demand.
   Now we get some negitive values for this key figure , the user doesnot want to see the negitive values. So we have done, Absolute value of X. But now what he says is , he wants to see the negitive values but the result of that key figure should be sum of all absolute values. So we provided to him , extra column giving the result as the sum of all absolute values. So let us say , the sum of all values of key figure X including negitive values is 50(X1) and the sum of all absolute values of key figure X is 300(X2).Now when we are using X2 in another calculated key figure it is supposed to take 300 as the value but it is taking only 50 as the value and doing the calculation. What is the reason for this ? Can't we do some calculation on 300(X2).I request some help on this issue.
Thanks ,

Issues with podcast submission, tried multiple options

I’m trying to submit a new podcast to iTunes. I’m using podpress on Wordpress and hosting the mp3 files on our servers. I know podpress isn’t ideal but it seems to be the only one I’ve found that work with our website. The subscribe to podcast by url is working fine, it downloads all the needed information.
http://centralfloridatop5.com/category/orlandotourismreport/feed/
But when I try to submit the podcast I keep getting the ‘We had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed’ message. I’ve checked multiple times the picture size, file with no spaces and other options I’ve found on these boards.I even had our IT guy take a look at it and he seemed to not know what the issue was.
I tried the regular blog feed http://centralfloridatop5.com/feed/ and it works for the podcast by url but again not the Submit a Podcast feed url.
I’m not out of options and don’t know what to try next. Any ideas?

As you say your feed can be subscribed to OK. I can't see any obvious reason why it's falling over on submission, though there are a few minor points:
Your server is a bit slow to respond, though I wouldn't have thought the delay was long enough to cause a timeout.
Your filenames have spaces in them. Spaces are not allowed in a URL, but the feed is handling this correctly by substituting the code %20 for each space so it shouldn't be causing a problem, it's just messy.
The 'length' attribute in your 'enclosure' tags is set to '1' - it should be the file size in bytes. I wouldn't have thought this would have caused a problem.
Sometimes the submissions process falls over - I can only suggest waiting a day or so and trying again.
