On migration of Mac Office Excel the date values are changed to mm/dd/yy

I recently upgraded to new iMac and migrated my MacOffice 2008 and now find that all my date data is forced into the American date format (mm/dd/yy). I have phoned Apple support - no help! Microsoft no online help. Not only is the entry data changed but I have to use the awkward data entry format of mm/dd/yy very unnatural to a non American.
I have searched in Excel preferences and confirmed my OS X 10.10 settings (languages and date formats) all using dd/mm/yy as input and display.
If I enter a date into the spreadsheet say 1/8/14 (meaning 1st August) it comes back with 8th January. Is there a fix or do I have to wear that nonsense?
Any ideas out there? This problem did not exist in Mavericks.
thanks, Sigi

to get the date value . provided if all the above fields are having values not zeros .
My requirement is if any of the above stated fileds are having spaces or zeros then I had to assign spaces or zeros to the variable .So many misconceptions.
You start with numbers not dates. You convert those numbers to dates when you can and every time you need to use them, which is why it would be better to store dates in the first place.
You cannot assign either 0 or spaces to a date variable because neither 0 or space is a valid date. You should probably assign it to null.

Delete the records which have the Data values are NULL before load data to BPC model

Hi Everyone,
I am loading the data from flat file to BPC Model (10.0 Version).
Source data (Flat file) looks like below:
RP_Employee RPT_Currency Data
Test                USD                   8
Test1              USD
Test2              USD                    6
My user requirement is that to delete the records which have the Data values are NULL before load data to BPC model.
So,Please let me know how can i meet to this requirement.
I am thinking that,it is possible by using start routine BADi. If i am correct please let me know process like creation of class and BADi implementation.
Thanks in advance!!

Hi Nilanjan,
Please see my source data below:
Account      Client       Employee     Time                Data
123              XYZ            Vishu            2014.01               300
456                                                       2014.01
789              ABC         Alexander      2014.02               200
If you see the second record,
If data value is ZULL, then the Employee or another dimension is also NULL.
So I want to delete second records.
If it is Start routine please share the code and steps to do.
Thanks in advance!!

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

Hello Miss Moo,
If I upgraded to 10.5, would any of the problems such as misplaced files and apps, etc. in Tiger 10.4.11 interfere with the upgrade.
If it's Apple Apps, like Safari, Mail, etc., then there will be new versions to replace all the missing files/components.
The Mac OS X Installer stops with 2 minutes remaining and it can't finish copying the disc.
How much free space is on your Hard Drive?
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Were any errors reported?
That second Disc thing happens frequently, the best way around it is to do a Custom install, and eliminate enough Printer Drivers, Languages, Fonts, and Applications you don't need... then it may skip #2 altogether.

How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

I'm not sure what the question is.
I know that if you have a bar chart and one of the categories (X-axis) has bar (Y value) equal to 0%, no bar is plotted for that category. Even the addition of a stroke (line) around the bars doesn't make one appear for 0%. The only automatic way I know of to make it look like there is data in that category is to add the value labels to the bars. Inspector/Chart/Series, select one of the bars on the chart, click on "value labels". Another method that is a workaround is to fudge the number a little in your table so that instead of 0% it is a very small %. This will get you a thin line on the chart.
But if your question is about the value labels (the numbers that display on or in the bars) and you are not getting one for a bar that is supposed to be 0%, it probably means your table doesn't actually have a 0% in the corresponding cell. A blank cell in the table will not get a value label.

Setting the series color of a bi beans graph based on the data values

How do I conditionally set the series color of a bi beans graph based on the data values?
I am using the following code to get the data values and set the series color:
Graph gr=(Graph)CmdrDashboardP1_pres1.getView();
DataAccess da=gr.getGraphModel().getDataAccess();
DataDirector dd=gr.getDataDirector();
DataMap dm=dd.getDataMap();
int re=dd.ROW_EDGE;
int ce=dd.COLUMN_EDGE;
Object val=da.getValue(re,ce,dm.DATA_TYPE);
int seriesCount=da.getEdgeCurrentSlice(DataDirector.ROW_EDGE);
if (val <=45.0)
gr.getSeries().setColor(new Color(255,0,0),seriesCount);
I get a NullPointerException from the line of code "Object val=da.getValue(re,ce,dm.DATA_TYPE)." I have tried the code with DATA_UNFORMATTED as well, but get the same exception. When I print the DataMap value of dm the results are [dataUnformatted, dataViewFormat, value, dataIsTotal, dataType].
Also, I get the error "method <= (java.lang.Object,double) not found in class _CmdrDashboardP1" from the "if (val <=45.0)" code.
Thanks for any assistance

How to extract the date value of <IBOR date="12/12/2009">?

Hi,
The date is an attribute of element IBOR. So you must use "@date" in the xpath expression :
WITH ibors AS (
SELECT xmltype('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<IBOR date="12/12/2009">
<LIBOR currency="USD">
<OneYear>1.38875</OneYear>
</LIBOR>
</IBOR>
') ibor_xml
FROM dual
SELECT i.ibor_date, i.ibor_oneyear
FROM ibors,
XMLTABLE(
'//IBOR'
PASSING ibors.ibor_xml
COLUMNS
ibor_date VARCHAR2(20) PATH '/IBOR/@date',
ibor_oneyear VARCHAR2(20) PATH '/IBOR/LIBOR/OneYear'
) i;

drjil,
It is possible that the subscription is not valid or up-to-date.
If you are looking for U.S. Holidays, here are three alternative choices besides Apple - Downloads - iCal Calendars - US Holiday Calendar.
1. Welcome to iCalShare
2. iCal World - Holiday Calendars by Country
3. US Federal Holidays, ICS format, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015.
