Option + arrow keys suddenly inserts new columns

This happens frequently when I work in Numbers.
When I shall edit text in a cell, option + > and option + < all of a sudden cease to work. Instead of jumping to next or previous word, a new column is inserted.
I don't know what causes it. I haven't found another solution than closing the document and reopen it.
Fred

I always edit text directly in cells and option + arrow keys normally jump to next or previous word.
Yes they are greyed out for me too.
I just noticed that if I by mistake press Cmd + return (instead of option + return) when I want to edit, it causes option + arrow keys to insert new columns. I can revert to normal by placing the cursor in the formula bar and using option + arrows. After that option + arrow keys jump to next or previous word also when I edit directly in cells.
Thanks for telling about using the formula bar. Now I don't have to close and reopen the document.

Using arrow keys to add new columns to text frames

Is dragging a text box or the mouse as you push the arrow keys to add new columns or rows, specific to CS5? Does this only work for MAC or is it also good for PC?

CS5 or CS5.5, either platform.

Using option + arrow keys

Hi All,
Just upgraded to Lion. I am used to using the Option + Arrows keys for back browsing. Lion has changed this to Option + [ key. Is there anyways to change it back?
Thanks.

The changes remain intact for me. Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder:
User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

Howto INSERT new column in correct position

Currently I have a Table with 19 column, but it should have 20. I would like to insert after column 15, the new 16th column, so that it will be 20.
I know how to alter a table, but how do I tell it to insert it as the new 16th column ?
alter Table TABLE
add
COLUMN16 varchar2(10);
THanks!
TGIF

Again, it depends.
If you just want to fix your query
Create Table TABLE AS
Select column1, to_char(column2) column2, column3 from Table1
UNION
Select column1, column2, column3 from Table2;If you want to fix Table1
ALTER TABLE table1
ADD( column2_varchar2 VARCHAR2(30) );
UPDATE table1
SET column2_varchar2 = to_char( column2 );
ALTER TABLE table1
DROP( column2 );
ALTER TABLE table1
RENAME COLUMN column2_varchar2 TO column2Taking a step back, though, why are you creating a new table that is the result of unioning two other tables? Is this a one-time data model change? Or is this part of some ongoing process?

Urxvt + vim arrow keys in insert mode problem

There's this annoying problem I've been experiencing for a while now that I haven't been able to fix.
I'm running urxvt-unicode-256color as my terminal emulator. When I'm using vim in insert mode, accidentally hitting the arrow keys inserts A B C D or into the file. I don't use the arrows keys, but accidentally hitting them can get really annoying. I've read all sorts of ways to resolve this and none of the seem to work. The only way I was able to get around this was to set $TERM to be xterm, but that seems like a weird fix for this.
Is there another way of solving this?

Map the keys in vim to something useful or to nothing at all.
BTW, I have the same setup and my cursor keys result in movement like hjkl, so:
- check if you're using vim and not vi,
- change your settings in .vimrc.
I've already mapped the keys to do nothing. But it doesn't seem to work. I'm using map and imap, I've also use set t_ku, etc.
How do I check if I'm using vim as opposed to vi? I've already installed the vim package.
I have set nocompatible in my .vimrc but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Mr.Elendig wrote:set your TERM to rxvt-256color, make sure vim is not in compatible mode (and that you are actually using vim and not vi)
My term vairable is already set to rxvt-unicode.
Set it to 'rxvt-256color'

Arrow keys suddenly not working!

Two arrow keys, right and up, suddenly stopped working on my black Macbook. I had this problem a week ago, then upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion and they worked again. Not now. They won't work with modifying keys either! Someone please help me.

If a number of keys are not working, it is probably a defective keyboard. Having a different keyboard setting would cause different characters to show up, not not work. You are going to need to get the keyboard replaced. If the computer is still under warranty, do it as soon as possible. But if they find a spill on the keyboard, expect to be charged. In the meantime, an external USB keyboard does work well on these Toshibas.

Hello,

xmlSQL := 'select name, depto from emp where city = :vCity';
xmlString := xmlgen.getXML(xmlSQL);
Now, I want to read each line and modify
the name or depto values before create the
XML file. How can I do this?

Inserting new columns based on the condition!

Hi guys,
I have a very simple query like the following…
SELECT table2.column_code2,
table2.column_description2,
table2.column_code1,
table1.column_description1
FROM database_001.table2 table1 LFET OUTER JOIN database_001.table2 table1 on (table2.column_code1 = table1.column_code1)
From this query, its returning me a result set of something like below:
column_code1 column_description1 column_code2 column_description2
RO1 BOOK RL1
PDF/ECOPY
RO2 PAPER RL2
CONFERENCE
RO5 JOURNAL
RL11 OTHER
Now, on the above query I want to insert three extra columns with the name (status, location and contact) where the results in the extra three columns would be based on the conditions I want to define in the query based on the above results…
Something for example (sorry, I am not trying to write a condition: my question is how to write it),
if column_code1 = RO1 and column_description2 = PDF/ECOPY on status column it should return a value ‘ONLINE’ & on location column it should return ‘WEB’ and on contact column it should write ‘BOB’.
Also,
if column_code1 = RO5 and column_description1 = JOURNAL on status column it should return a value ‘ON PRESS FOR PRINT’ & on location column it should return ‘S.R STREET, LONDON’ and on contact column it should write
‘SMITH’ like below result…so the final output should be the top four columns and the extra three columns…I hope someone can help me into this…thanks a lot…
status location
contact
ONLINE WEB
BOB
ON PRESS FOR PRINT S.R STREET, LONDON SMITH

Hi artistdigital,
you can use case statment for same in sql server. MSDN link - > http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms181765.aspx
Try code like this:
SELECT table2.column_code2,
table2.column_description2,
table2.column_code1,
table1.column_description1,
case when column_code1 = 'RO1' and column_description2 = 'PDF/ECOPY' then 'ONLINE'
when column_code1 = 'RO5' and column_description1 = 'PDF/ECOPY' then 'ON PRESS FOR PRINT'
end as [status],
case when column_code1 = 'RO1' and column_description2 = 'PDF/ECOPY' then 'WEB'
when column_code1 = 'RO5' and column_description1 = 'PDF/ECOPY' then 'S.R STREET, LONDON'
end as [Location],
case when column_code1 = 'RO1' and column_description2 = 'PDF/ECOPY' then 'BOB'
when column_code1 = 'RO5' and column_description1 = 'PDF/ECOPY' then 'SMITH'
end as [contact]
FROM table2
join table1
on table2.column_code1 = table1.column_code1

How can I change the measurement of the kerning quick key? (When you press option + arrow keys)

Right now when I am using the quick keys to kern type, everything jumps too far. I want to lower the measurement or unit that it moves when I use this, as it is currently driving me nuts.

Not likely you can change it, unless something out of wack is causing it.
Anyway
Which operating system are you using?
In photoshop under Help>System Info find the version of photoshop at the top of the list?
Which version of photoshop were you using before?
Have you looked in the Character panel while kerning to see the increments of kern while pressing the shortcuts?

Insert new user column in pick and pack manager window

Hi all,
Exist a way to insert new column in pick and pack manager window?
I try by code too but i can´t. Is possible to do this?
Thank you all again.
Regards.

Hi Aitor,
Unfortunately, I don't think it is possible to add columns to this particular window. I had a requirement to do this a while back in SBO 2005A SP1 and I ended up designing my own pick and pack window.

Excel & ActiveX: Insert arbitrary columns from 2D array and create graph problems

Hi there,
I want to insert data from either a 1D or 2D array from LabView into Excel and create graphs.
I used the information from the following example:
http://www.ni.com/example/28934/en/
and was able to create a new Excel file (I'm using Excel 2010), writing data from an 1D array to a column in excel by creating a while loop and using the first element of the array to write it to a specific cell. I use the counter of the loop to write to the next cell when the loop starts over and always delete the first value, which I write to the cell, from the array until it is empty.
Now I also would like to write a 2D array - so the first column in Excel should be the first column from the array and so. Here I cannot use the loop counter directly as Excel only counts 1,2,... for the rows, but uses A,B,... to count columns. Also I do not know in advance how many columns my 2D array will contain, so creating a lookup table like (A means 1, B means 2,...) is not really an option (except there really is no other way). Is there a possibilty to convert numbers into letters or some way to 'explain' to the program that column 2 in the array means column B in Excel for example, or is there a way to insert new columns?
I figured out how to add new Worksheets and as I also need to create a certain number of Worksheets and I know that on standard 3 sheets are present when creating the file, I use the 'add' methode to create every new worksheets before worksheet 3 - I could use the same methode to create new columns in Excel, but so far I didn't find a methode to do so. Or is there a way to enter the whole 2D array at once?
Then I'd like to create a graph (in case of the 1D arrays a bar plot, when using 2D arrays a 3D plot) to view the data. I found this example:
http://www.ni.com/newsletter/51339/en/
-> as I do not have the toolkit I'd like to do it using ActiveX directly, so I tried to do things like shown under the headline 'DIY ActiveX/.NET'
I tried to load the snippet to a new Excel file but got the error message 'microsoft.office.interop.excel.dll not found' and hence the code is not working. That confuses me a little as I would guess when this dll is not present I cannot access Excel from LabView at all, though my understanding of what I'm really doing so far is quiet limited. ;-)
Also - as far as I understand from the snippet - when creating a new chart object I should be able the create methodes for it, however when I do a right click on the chart object of an ActiveX Worksheet symbol there are none listed.
To explain my problems better I added a snippet showing my two problems: The inner of the two while loops shows how I import a 1D array. In the outer loop I seperate the columns. I know that currently this is not working as all data end up in column A of the Excel sheet - so I would need to convert the number of the outer counter to A, B,... or find a different solution.
Moreover on the snippet I placed an ActiveX Worksheet Property with the Chart Object - as I can see the difference to the Chart Object in the example code from the last link above is the color. However I'm not sure what that means and how to change/ solve this.
And just to make sure - I know this way the VI does not run as the Chart Object is placed completely wrong - I just did it, so it is included in the snippet.
I'd be thankful for any suggestions,
Thanks!
Solved!

Hello everyone and thanks for the answers.
I only have the LabView Student Edition available here - is the toolkit included in it too. How can I check if it is installed/ available and in case it is installed - where can I find it?
Today I had time to take a look at the example
Create via ActiveX Labview a XY Scatter plot graph on an excel sheet
It almost does what I want in terms of creating a graph. The only problem I could not fix, is that in this example a sheet is created where only the graph is present. i'd like to add the graph to a previously created worksheet. Today I tried get this working but it seems I stilll don't really understand what I'm doing, I'll post a snippet of my code as soon as I can access the PC with LabView on it again.
I also took a look at the other example for inserting 2D attays - it seems to be what I need, I just had no time so far to test it, I'll post an update when I could test it.
Thanks for the help so far!

New columns to select in FS10N/FBL3N

Can I insert new columns for selection in the Report of FS10N/FBL3N?
Of all the columns that already exist today to selecting and assembling the report, I need to install new fields that are not available. Where do I include this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can go to T-Code O7R3 and add additional fields for display as per your requirement.

Wired Keyboard: Right Arrow Key Not Working Properly

The right arrow key on my new wired keyboard doesn't work on the first press. After the initial press it works, and if I'm only using the arrow keys themselves it works fine too. But otherwise it takes two presses to move the cursor initially.

I found the problem, at least for my keyboard. Open Keyboard Viewer from the International menu, the one that displays a flag.
Tap the right arrow key lightly. Nothing happens on the viewer. Tap any other key lightly. They display just fine. Now, give the right arrow key a firmer tap. You should see that it registers every time as long as you tap it a little harder than the other keys.
So, at least in my case, it is keyboard specific. That probably explains why some have the problem and other's don't. I will exchange this keyboard for another one until I finally get one that works. Thank God for "Keyboard Viewer" or I never would have nailed this down.
Poor quality control at play here me thinks.
