Numbers - Rows

Hi everybody,
New to Numbers so please help!
I'm using numbers as a simple database - names, emails, that sort of thing - adding people as I go along. Everything was going well when suddenly it stopped letting add another row. I copied the whole thing onto a new sheet and managed to add a couple more rows and then stopped again. I've found the tag thingy at the end of the far right-hand column but it won't let me drag to increase the length of the table though it will let me add more columns, just not rows. What am I missing?
thanks

Hi, I do not use Numbers but if it's like Pages->go into the BLUE i icon-> it allows rows to be added as well as Lines etc...L

How to make numbered rows in Numbers

How do I make numbered rows in Numbers?

Hi Carol,
It depends on whether you want the numbers to move with the rows if and when you sort, or if you always want the rows numbered top to bottom.
There's a function that returns the row number: ROW(). Placing that in a cell always displays the number of the row. If you want to number once and then let the numnbers follow the data around, you can Fill with a sequence by typing "1" in the first row and "2" in the second row. Then select both cells and drag the Fill handle down the table to extend the series. The fill handle is the little open circle in the lower right corner of the selection.

Getting every odd-numbered row from result set

select *
from mytable
where MOD(rownum,2) = 1;
Why does this not give me every odd-numbered row from result set? It returns just 1 row....
Thank u

When you say MOD(ROWNUM,2)=1 it will list only the first row with rowid which is devisible by 2 and gives a reminder 1.
Just tweak your query with a GROUP BY:
SQL> select rownum from your_table group by rownum having mod(rownum,2) =1;
    ROWNUM
         1
         3
         5
         7
         9
        11
        13
        15
        17
        19
        21
    ROWNUM
        23
        25
        27
        29
        31
        33
        35

Retrieving Odd numbered rows from a table.

In one recent interview I have been asked to write a SQL query to retreive Odd numbered rows from any table. At first I am confused on how to say whther a perticular row is odd or even. If it is based on rownum then rownum is not dynamic and every time the rownum changes for a perticular row. I finally used rowid for this puprpose, as you all of you know rowid is alphanumeric its not worked.
Can you please posta query to retrive odd numbered rows if its possible.

Can you please posta query to retrive odd numbered rows if its possible.As you say, if there's nothing in the data itself to offer a distinction as to what is "odd" and "even" then the closest thing is the rownum.

7 rows selected.Anything else is making an assumption as to what is "odd" and "even". If it were me, the answer would be to do the above and also explain that, without any definition of what constitutes "odd" and "even" this is the closest possible, but not an accurate science as there is no guarantee as to the order of the records.

JTable getColumnName not working with numbered rows

you know when you read through the same code for a day and can't find the problem but someone who has never seen it before can find the problem in a second? i've got that going on right now.
I saw a thread, http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=57&threadID=639189 , where rows numbers are neatly added to a JTable by camickr, after I implemented this I can't get my data or ColumnHeaders to line up with the corrent columns. I have three columns, { Integer, Integer, JComboBox } it's kind of an old post but I was just wondering if any one else had run into the problem.
Also when I insert a new row { Integer, Integer, "Combo Option" } it is inserted into the table as { Integer, "Combo Option", Integer }, this isn't a real high priority but any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I tried to shorten this up as much as possible, sorry but it is still kind of big:

Create auto-numbered rows?

I'd like to auto-number the first number of a new row when creating a new entry in a form. In other words, when I create a new entry in my form, in the corresponding table the first column is numbered sequentially 1, 2, etc.
I can't seem to figure out how to do this. Any help is appreciated.

I have been trying to do this myself. I would think that if you place a formula like =row()-1 and then added a row beneath that it should copy that formula to your new row. I think the desktop version does this, but not the ipad version, I might have missed a setting somewhere, but cannot find it.

How can I add a whole paragraph of text to an IPad Numbers row?

I can add the text just fine, and the text wraps to the next line as I type it, but when I'm done only one row of text appears. If I change the row height, it creates a nice high row, but again only the first line appears at the bottom of the row.

Under the Format button ( the paintbrush) at the top of the screen turn on "Wrap text in cell".

How to select x numbered row from two tables

Hi,
I have one performance problem...
Here is sample scenario...
TableA
A1 A2 A3
a1     a12     a13
a2     a22     a23
a3     a32     a33
TableB
B1     B2     B3
b1     b12     b13
b2     b22     b23
I want result like
A1     B1     A2     B2
a1     b1     a12     b12
a2     b2     a22     b22
I have written it like
select
A1,
B1,
A2,
B2
from
(select A1, A2, rownum rnA from TableA) a,
(select B1, B2, rownum rnB from TableB) b
where rnA = rnB
but suppose TableA has 2500000 rows and
TableB has 500 rows then for 500 rows I have to
wait for all 2500000 rows scanning.
Is there any smart solution..?
I have created indexes for on columns A1, (A1,A2,A3), B1, (B1,B2,B3).
Curious:)

Print Row Numbers and Column Letters

How do you tell Numbers to print the Row numbers and Column letters? This was very simple in Appleworks (print dialog box had that option). Can't find it in Numbers though.

Here is a script doing all the job for us.
Just select one or several cells in a table and run the script.
It duplicates it, add an header row, an header column, insert the needed labels and fill the other cells with a formula grabbing the contents of the original table.
--[SCRIPT build a table with headers]
Enregistrer len tant que Script: build a table with headers.scpt
déplacer le fichier créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Selectionner une cellule dans la table à dupliquer
menu Scripts > Numbers > build a table with headers
Le script duplique la table et crée des en-têtes de lignes et colonnes.
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
+++++++
Save the script as Script: build a table with headers.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Select a range of cells in the table to 'duplicate'
menu Scripts > Numbers > build a table with headers
The script duplicate the table and inserts columns/rows headers.
--=====
The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.

How do I delete multiple rows and columns in an image?

I am looking into how digital SLRs extract video data from a CMOS sensor. To give an example, the GH1 from Panasonic can record video at 1920 x 1080 from a 12 MPixel sensor that, say, is 4000 horizontal x 3000 vertical. How they do that seems to be not in the public domain, but there have been a few guesses (see http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=206797 and http://luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=38713).
One approach would be to simply read every second row of sensor pixels (1500 rows read from the original 3000) and once you have those in memory, delete every second column (2000 columns left). You would end up with a 2000 x 1500 image which could then be resampled to 1920 x 1080.
I'd like to simulate what the camera appears to be doing, by generating a 4000 x 3000 test image and then asking Photoshop CS4 to delete the appropriate rows and columns. It may not necessarily be every second row; the Canon 5DMk11 appears to read every third row, so I may need to delete two out of every three rows.
Can Photoshop do that sort of thing? If so, how?

Thanks for the suggestions. Yes, I did take a detailed look at your images, but they weren't 100% convincing because it wasn't clear just what was happening. And Adobe's explanation, after reading it again, explains nothing at all to someone who doesn't know how Nearest Neighbor works.
But you are correct -- Nearest Neighbor does effectively delete pixels. I proved it with the attached 6 x 6 image of coloured pixels (the tiny midget image right after this full stop -- you'll have to go to maximum zoom in PS to see it).
These are the steps to delete every second row and then every second column.
1. Select Image > Image Size.
2. Set Pixel Dimensions > Height to half the original (in this case set to 3 pixels).
3. Set Resample Image to Nearest Neighbor.
4. Click OK and the image shoould now consist of three vertical white strips and three vertical Green-Red-Blue stripes.
5. Repeat steps 1-4, but this time set Pixel Dimensions > Width to half the original (in this case set to 3 pixels). The image should now consist of three horizontal stripes Green-Red-Blue.
Just to make sure the method worked for every third pixel, I repeated the above steps but with 2 pixels instead of 3 and obtained the correct White-Green, White-Green pattern.
I resampled the Height and Width separately for the test so that I could see what was happening. In a real example, the height and width can be changed at the same time in the one step, achieving the same results as above.
Finally, how to explain how Nearest Neighbor works in the simple cases described above?
Division by 2
In the case of an exact division by two (pixels numbered from top leftmost pixel), only the even numbered rows and columns remain. To put it a different way, every odd numbered row and column are deleted.
Division by 3
Only rows and columns 2, 5, 8, 11... remain.
Division by N
Only rows and columns 2, 2+N, 2+2N, 2+3N... remain.
To put it simply, a resample using Nearest Neighbor (using an exact integer multiple) keeps every Nth row and column, starting from number two. The rest are deleted.

Can numbers open and view excel files with filters applied?

Hi - I don't currently have iWork but was considering purchasing it. I frequently get sent excel files from work (which I view on my iPad 3) that have got filters in the column headings applied and I need to be able to change the dropdown values in the headings to see different cuts of the data in the spreadsheet. Does anyone know if the current version of Numbers allows users to do this?

Numbers has a row filtering feature, but it doesn't involve the Header or any dropdown menus. In Numbers row filtering is controlled from the Reorganize Panel which is activated from the Toolbar. Given this, I don't think an imported Excel document will have the filtering feature active. Hopefully someone who uses both Execl and Numbers will weigh in.

Importing a .csv file into numbers

thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
i am a spreadsheet newbie. i am attempting to open a .csv file in numbers. this file when opened on the internet does have each filed seperated by commas, not tabs. when i drag it into numbers, it opens each line in its own row, however it puts the entire information (lets say 5 commas worth) in one column.
so what i am getting is everything in a numbered row but the program does not appear to be recognizing the commas as a reason to put the information in its own column.
this is not a life threatening endeavor, i am just trying to organize my guitar magazine collection. i would like to find the song by doing a search of columns/rows and i do not think i can do it as is.
thanks again...

!? -- So what do I put in the Replace Text Field box?
To type a return into the Find/Replace dialogue, Pages uses option-return, Text Wrangler uses command-return (or type \r), haven't checked Text Edit.
If you Show Invisibles (View menu in Pages, Edit menu > Text Options in Text Wrangler, text Edit doesn't appear to have the option of viewing the invisible characters), you can copy a return, and paste it into the box in pretty much any application that will display the invisible characters. Actually, you should be able to copy the return character even without being able to see it—select from just after the last visible character in a 'paragraph' to the very beginning of the next line, Copy—but it is nice to be able to see what you're doing.
(I have Pages, MacJournal, Bean, & Text Wrangler and a few other word processing program)
One note on Pages: Pages does not offer the option to Save as..Text. For that, you have to go File > Export... and choose Plain Text.
To restate the problem (and I appreciate your help)
I have a new mailing list with about 100 emails that are separated by commas. The program I'm using seems to require each email be on a separate line. So instead of:
[email protected], [email protected]
I want:
[email protected],
[email protected]
So I just want to do a find and replace on "," and replace it with ", carriage return".
It would be SO GREAT to finally overcome this hurdle.
Any of the three options above should do the job.

The 'Load Details' screen doesn't show the rows for 'Loaded'

Hi All,
May I request for inputs on the following issue please. Request iSetup Development to confirm if this is the intended feature.
Customer complains that when they view the details of a Load, the 'Loaded' column doesn't show any numbers (rows).
Customer expects to see the numbers for this column. Why this is left blank?
I can see that even the documentation shows the blank column.
Oracle® iSetup User's Guide Release 12.1 Part No. E12899-04
CHAPTER 5: Migrations
Viewing a Load (Page 5-35)
The above page shows the Screenshot of 'Load Details'. The 'Loaded' column doesn't show any details. It is blank.
Request for confirmation.
Regards,
Ramana.

Hi there
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel. I understand that you wish to enable the reveal password icon for your system. I am happy to help. It really depends on which version of the Operating system you are running, because this sort of thing is normally controlled using the Group Policy Editor. That tool is not a part of a Home edition, you would need the Pro version or higher to have that. Assuming that you do have a pro edition or higher, then these may be of help to you:5 Ways to Access Local Group Policy Editor on Windows 10 - isunshare.comDisable or Enable the new Password Reveal Button feature in Windows 8 - windowsclub.com Unfortunately the version of Windows 10 I have installed beside me is the home edition as well, so I cannot access this, to verify, so let me know if that works for you.

Applying percentage reduction to a row of cells

I'm trying to figure out what the equivalent of paste special>values>multiply from excel would be in numbers.
Basically i have a row of different numbers ( row 3) that a big financial model relies upon. I want to put a % in a new cell and use the slider on that cell, then apply the % to a selection of the cells in row 3.
This will enable me to adjust the whole model, by sliding the % of 1 cell.
So lets say a cell on row 3 has the value of 3000. By moving the slider to 50% would reduce the value of that cell to 1500.
I know i could make another row, which woud contain the results keeping the origional row 3 at their current values, and use the new row to feed the rest of the spread sheet, but its a massive financial model, and i'll miss something.
Many thanks

Numbers does not have a feature to modify the contents of a cell and place the result back into the same cell. The best solution is to either:
1) make a new row that has the original row multiplied by the %
2) make a new table that you can hide to hold the non-modified values andstore the modified values in their place in your original row of the table

Numbering Across Table Cells

Hello expert users, my first post here,
I have a table that has four columns. The cells in the first column should be numbered. I have set up a style with tiered numbers (which is the numbering I need). Each cell, however, carries number 1, although the option "Continue from previous" is selected. Does Pages not support numbering across table cells, does it restart numbering in each cell by default?

You didn't understand the way lists behaves.
They apply to a chunk of text.
A cell's contents is a chunk of text and the list tool may apply in a given cell.
You are trying to apply numbering to several cells.
They aren't A chunck of text but several ones.
The list tool treats them separately and logically it starts from 1 in evey chunck.
Numbering rows is quite easy if we take time to read the User Guide.
Type 1 in cell A1
Type 2 in cell A2
select both cells then drag to the bottom the circular handle available at bottom of cell A2.
With iWork '09 there is a new feature.
Type a1 in cell A1
select the cell and drag the circular handle to the bottom.
You will get
a1
a2
a3
a4
