Reference field name changes

I'm working on two sheets, one with all the nitty-gritty details of my bills, the other a summary.
When I wanted to put an if() formula that reads a cell in the summary sheet to read from one field in the details screen the Field Name changes. It was working on most of the fields until I got to one set of them then this happened:
when I put in
=IF('Bill/Exp Comparator' :: '12/29/09' J C Penney="","",'Bill/Exp Comparator' :: '12/29/09' J C Penney)
and hit enter I'd get
=IF('Bill/Exp Comparator' :: '12/29/09' '3/9/10' C Penney="","",'Bill/Exp Comparator' :: '12/29/09' '3/9/10' C Penney)
I would delete the '3/9/10' and hit enter again, it would change back to it. I don't know why is it doing it with one field or how to stop it.
This is another reason why I should stick to a Windows' product.

These are the paths to two preferences files that could be causing the abnormal behaviour.
Go to the Finder, open a new Finder Window.
In the sidebar, the house icon with your (user)name under it is <yourAccount>. Start there with a double click or single click, depending which view (icons, list or columns) you are using in the Finder Window, to open that item. In the new list that opens, repeat with the next item (Library) in the path.
The last item in the path is a preferences file, identified by the .plist suffix on the filename.
Preferences files are constantly being read, changed and written to by the application, and occasionally become corrupted. Deleting them is a common 'first aid' step. The application (Numbers in this case) will create a new, clean copy of the file when the need arises.
if this is using a script, I'm not practiced at that, and the "LSSharedFileList" part bugs me. "share" with what, where, whom? Is this opening my computer to others without my knowledge?
If your profile is correct (it says you are using Mac OS X v10.4.11), you are unlikely to find the second file (com.apple.iWork.Numbers.LSSharedFileList.plist). This is a file associated with Launch Services, and was introduced in OS X v 10.5. It's on Yvan's machine as he has Numbers set up to Launch as one of his log in items.
I don't mind emailing a template because it's nothing impressive to anybody. Would you mind if I send a template?
Go ahead. Please put "Numbers Ref Field Changes" in the subject line. My address is available in my profile—click my neme to the left of this message to get there.

  • Trying to reference field name of my record Type in my procedure!

    I need to know, how to reference my field name for each state in my procedure that are in my record type. The problem is it won't allow me to use something like this.
    select state || '_PCT
    from cycle_rates;
    which would eventually show me each state concatenated with '_PCT, e.g. AK_PCT and that's my field names.
    For example,
    FOR cur_rate IN c_rate
    LOOP
    rate_data(1).field_name := cur_rate.rate_pct;
    --field_name = AK_PCT, AL_PCT and so on...

    I would appreciate it if somene can direct me. Thanks.

  • Re:  Reference field to change red alert message. How?

    Hi FICO Consultant,
    We are using T-Code:  FBL1N, using our com code and execute the report.  In this report, we have used the reference field for company purpose key in the same reference no.: (EX:  789100).  The same number appeared again on the screen (Reference No.).  That time red alert message appeared on the screen or an existing same reference in this field.  Any body gives the idea to me in FICO.
    We expect the reply from you. 
    Thank you,
    Regards,
    Krishnan.

    The icons are a function of the Alert style: that can only be changed in the property palette. I'don't believe there is any way of substituting your own icons for the Oracle ones short of overwriting the Oracle supplied files with graphics of your own. However, we can set the Alert Title and Message Text programmatically with the SET_ALERT_PROPERTY built-in.
    Cheers, APC

  • Field name change

    We have changed the field name in CMOD, Goto->Text enhancements->Keywords->change->, for USERF1_TXT. In ESLL it shows the changes but in the transaction those changes are not reflected.
    Edited by: Alex on Aug 2, 2010 12:15 PM

    Hey,
    sometimes if you change just one text the screen shows another label because the lenght has changed. Check in the cmod the all the labels, "Short field label", "Medium field label", "Long field label", "Heading" or  "Short Description", perhaps it is taken it after another.
    I hope it helps.

  • Address Book field names changing for "imported" data

    I'm migrating from a thousand year old Palm Pilot that has served me so well to an iPhone. So it's time to get my contacts into OSX Address Book.
    I have tried moving the data a couple of ways - exporting vCards and text files from the Palm Desktop software.
    I did extensive editing of the text file in MS Excel to get the data into good order.
    I have set up a template in the Address Book preferences to create fields that I want/need. Some are generic default field names, some have custom names. eg. I want to see a field called "Bus. Phone" not one called "work". Call me picky.
    I get the same basic result no matter if I import the vCard file or a text file - The names of the fields just show up with very generic names in the imported data. I should note that creating a NEW record seems to use the field names that I have specified in the preferences.
    Also, when importing the text file, Address Book asks me to assign the field names for certain fields (while it seems smart enough to know what labels to use for other fields all on it's own). However, the Field Names available in the drop down menu ARE NOT the ones that I have set up in the prefs. I seem limited to the generic default field names only.
    Can anybody tell me how to get the field names to be what I want them to be for address data that is being imported like this?
    Thanks for any suggestions - this has been driving me crazy as it would seem to me to be a pretty basic process. (I mean, the Address Book has this import functionality and custom field name functionality built in so it should work right?!)

  • Recipe Mgmt. Workbench field name changes

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement of changing the Names of Fields Like "Recipe" to "Formulation" & some others in the workbench screen. I know the filed name can be changed but i wanted to know where all it will effect in the system. Since RM is further connected to other modules of SAP Like QM, PP-PI etc. So what will be the implications of this? Or is it ok if we just change the name of the field?
    Regards
    Nishant.

    Hi Nishant,
    To my knowledge it will have effect to other modules also as they are directly or indirectly related to this field change.
    But at same time let other people respond so we can come to know if some one has used and there is no effect to other module.

  • In sets (t-code GS01-04): How to change Field name

    HI,
    I have created sets for rule in validation by t-code GS01. Where I have given Tbale name BSEG and Field name KOSTL(Cost Center No). Now, I want to change field name SAKNR (GL NO) instead of cost center. When I am trying to change field name t-code GS02, there is field name is in display mode and no way to change it.
    As I have lot of entries in each set, so that creation of new sets is very hard job again. Further when I trying to create new sets by reference it didnt change the table name and field name.
    Please provide me a solution.
    Khalid

    Hi,
    Hope it is not possible, logically total field is changing and the dependent entrie will not stay as it is. I don't think this is possible.
    Eventhough the values are same but the fields are different.

  • Changing a text field name in an existing PDF via VBA

    Using OLE, I am accessing a given form with the following code:
    Function GetTextFieldNames(strFormName As String, strFieldName)
    Dim myApp As AcroApp
    Dim acForm As Acrobat.AcroPDDoc
    Dim jso As Object
    Dim strTest As String

    'Clean up
    acForm.Close
    myApp.Exit
    Set myApp = Nothing
    Set acForm = Nothing
    End Function
    The two items that I would like to achieve are:
    1. Getting a list of fieldnames on the form referenced
    2. Changing the field name (in this case, a textbox or checkbox) programmatically.
    However, I have not had any success in retrieving a list of available field names, nor have I been able to modify the name of the field. Any ideas?
    i.e. It would be nice one could say
    For i = 0 to acForm.[FieldCount]
         Set Field = jso.GetField(i)
         Print Field.Name
    Next i
    ...and
    Field.Name = "NewFieldName"
    I hope that helps to explain what I am trying to accomplish. Any ideas are appreciated. Thank you!

    Have you consulted the documentation in the SDK about what methods are available? It will show you how to get the list of fields and/or the proper count for iteration.
    IIRC you can't change the name via VBA

  • Change Reference field in MIRO document

    We are using invoice plan for posting of invoices. We want to update the reference field in the invoice document created by system once the original vendor invoice is received by the actual invoice no for tracking purpose.
    Is this possible?

    Hi,
    I think we can't change the reference field in invoice document.
    If you want we change the reference field in accounting document.
    For every vendor invoice system generates accounting document.
    We can view the accounting document in FB02 / FB03 . Reference field will be stored in header of the document. This field is not editable  field. If you want to change to editable field.
    Do following settings.
    Goto OB32 t.code. click on new entries.
    No need to enter account type.
    Feild name  --  BKPF-XBLNR.  activate the field  Field can be changed and save.
    Now goto FB02. Goto header, now reference field is in editable mode.

  • Changing the field names in a CFQUERY object

    Hello, I wonder whether you know the answer to this?
    I want to change the names of the fields in a CFQUERY result
    set after I have retrieved the results from the database (ie. I
    can't use "AS" in the original SQL statement). I can think of 2
    ways to do this - use the query-a-query (CFSQL) feature or just
    build and populate a new query object, as set out below:
    <cfquery name="CustList" datasource="name">
    SELECT CustId,CustName,CustAddress FROM Customers
    WHERE OrderStatus='P'
    </cfquery>
    OPTION#1:
    <cfqueryname="GenericList" type="query">
    SELECT CustId AS Id,CustName AS Name,CustAddress AS Address
    FROM CustList
    </cfquery>
    OPTION#2:
    <cfset GenericList = QueryNew("Id,Name,Address")>
    <cfloop query="CustList">
    <cfset unused = QueryAddRow(GenericList)>
    <cfset unused =
    QuerySetCell(GenericList,"Id",CustList.CustId)>
    <cfset unused =
    QuerySetCell(GenericList,"Name",CustList.CustName)>
    <cfset unused =
    QuerySetCell(GenericList,"Address",CustList.CustAddress)>
    </cfloop>
    Do you know which of these would be more efficient? And is
    there a better way, whereby I can maniplulate the names of the
    columns in the original query (ie. so that I can rename the
    "CustName" field to "Name" and then use "CustList.Name" directly)?
    Thanks!

    Thanks guys!
    If there is a close to zero overhead to the simple
    query-a-query then that seems like the way to go, with no need to
    look for a means of manipulating or modifying the original query.
    The reason I want to change the field names is so that the
    rest of my code can contain references to "CustList.Name" whereas
    otherwise I would have to do something like
    "Evaluate('CustList.#NameField#')" which is horribly messy. And the
    way the original query is generated means I can't use "AS" in it,
    but I still want to use the same code to work with that query
    result and other query results that share similar/related data with
    different field names.

  • Changing the Field Names

    Hi,
    I am dynamically adding rows to a table using the following code
    SheetIndexForm.Page1.tblSheets.trSheet.instanceManager.addInstance(true);
    The rows cells are all text fields for user data input. Rows are getting added perfectly fine along with the text fields. The only issue I am facing is that all the new rows have the same name as the first row. Is there anyway I can change the name of the new row to something else. I tried
    newRow.name = "trSheet" + newRowIndex.toString();
    but it does not work. The XFA field names will still be the same.

    The field name will be the same but the row that they are from will be unique. So If the Row subform is called Row  and the field is called field you will have Row[0].Field, Row{1].Field, Row[2].Field...etc
    Now how do you reference that in an expression seeing as the [ ] are used for arrays in Javascript. You would need teh xfa.resolveNode("string .....") sytax. So if you want to add all three values you woudl use ths sytax:
    Total.rawValue = xfa.resolveNode(Row[0].Field).rawValue + xfa.resolveNode(Row[1].Field).rawValue  + xfa.resolveNode(Row[2].Field).rawValue
    Or if you want to more sophisticated:
    for (i=0;i<Row.instanceManager.count;i++){
         Total.rawValue += xfa.resolveNode("Row[" + i + "].Field).rawValue
    Note that the count is 1 based but th einstances are 0 based!
    Hope that helps

  • Cant change field names

    I am working in the hierarchy and re-naming fields names for reference when pointing to them in scripts. Everything has been working fine for days now. Now for some reason I cannot re-name an object. I am allowed to highlight the object, delete the existing text, and re-type the new name for the field. But for some reason when I click on something else the object goes back to its original name. I have also tried right clicking and change the name there as well as in the binding tab. But still no luck.
    Weirdly, I can change the names of other objects in the hierarchy, just not any of the ones I need to. Any idea's?

    I have never heard of this before ...can you send the form to [email protected] and I will have a look. Please indicate which field is causing you the grief.

  • Script : how to change the Field name in standard program(ZM_MEDRUCK)

    Hi Experts,
    I am working with SAP SCRIPT. i need to change the Field Name that is PO NO to Document No & PO DATE to Document Date.
    These are assigned in data declaration as gv_name and gv_date.
    Can anyone help me to change this Fields.
    Regards,
    Vijayan.R

    Hi,
    You can archive this by making change in SAP script only. You don't need to touch the standard prgm.
    Debug the script and find it out which fields (In script editor) are printing these text on layout... then just replace them by creating your own text...
    You can create a text in TTDTG table,, like ZZPO_NAME = ( Document Name),, and use this filed in the script editor.
    &ZZPO_NAME&
