Searching for multiple identical values?

Hello.
I was wondering, is there anyway for a search to return results for multiple items with the same values?
For example, a spreadsheet of clients and their purchases. If the client makes several purchases (each a separate row) is their anyway search formula which could gather all of them?
Ideally what I am hoping to end up with is a sheet where I can type in their name and it will automatically fill with every entry for that client. However at the moment, search can find the last entry made for the client, but ignores earlier entry's. Is there a way around this?
At the moment I am just manually searching, finding the row number and using that to generate the final page.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hi DBuskar,
Please find attached an example for your request.
I hope this shows what you are looking for.
Greetings

How to search for multiple values with Bex Prompts

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to search for multiple values at the same time with Bex Prompts instead of searching one value at a time (please see the screen shot below). I searched the forum couldn't find any relevant answers. please let me know how to achieve?
Thanks,
Charvi.

Hi Charvi,
You can use wild card search to ensure you get multiple similar values listed as search output.use * for multiple characters and ? for single character.
For Example, Ravi * would result you all employees with first name as Ravi
You can use various search formats such as * Ravi * and * Ravi and Ra?? etc.
Thanks

Search for multiple words in a field?

is there a way to search for multiple words in a field? for example, if i have a metadata field called NOTES that contains the string "Joe and Bob created this version on Sunday" is there a way to search for "Sunday, Joe, Bob" and have it return the asset?

Search using the "Matches Word" option instead of "Contains". That will limit your results to only assets that have a field value that includes all three of those terms. If they are not all included in the same field value, it will not return a hit. So if "Sunday" were in Keywords and "Joe" & "Bob" are in Notes, you would not get a hit for that search with "Matches Word".
"Contains" searches for the contiguous string in any field on the assets.
Further, if you add your Notes field to the Metadata Group "Asset Filter", it will appear in your advanced search options, asset subscription filters, and search expired responses. Then you can specifically limit the search to that field and choose from "Matches Word', "Contains", and several other search filters. Note that when you use "Matches Word" this way, you need to eliminate spaces from your comma delimited list of words or you will not get the search hits you want.

Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and...

Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and then select them all and change the permissions on just those folders .i.e. Search for the budget folders in all client folders and lock them down to just the project managers. Without having to go to each folder and apply the permissions.

Simple Question: How to search for a date value in SELECT

Probabily a simple question, but in a SELECT statement, how do you do a search for a date value in the WHERE clause?
example:
Select * From Example
Where date = 01/01/2001
I know its not as simple as that, but what change has to occur to make it do what that example implies?
Thanks In Advance.

If you want to avoid the conversion part(to_date) you will need to specify the date in the format as ur nls date format.so the same query might not work if you change ur nls date format.
so it is advisable to give it in general format.
ie where date_col=to_date(01-01-2000,'dd-mm-yyyy')

How can i search for multiple file names (images) in bridge?

Hello everyone!
Does anyone know how to search for multiple file names in bridge?
That is to copy & paste something like this: _MG_2152, _MG_2177, _MG_2194, _MG_2195, _MG_2202, _MG_2212, _MG_2219, _MG_2261, _MG_2362, _MG_2401
Not using several criterias in the search box that is. That takes too long.
Thanks

Can I search for multiple images simultaneously in Aperture?

Can I search for multiple images simultaneously in Aperture? For example, search for 'Image2.jpg, Image3.jpg, Image5.jpg' by image name, out of different folders?

dusan -- your best procedure is likely to be to type the first file name (without extension) in the search field of the Photos View, and then mark that file either with a Flag or a color label. (You might clear all Flags prior.) If you have a lot of images or a slow computer (or both ) you may have to wait a few seconds. Aperture will show "Loading ... " on the left side of the tool strip while it churns through your images.
Then hit backspace twice, and type "60". Mark the file found.
Repeat with variations.
Then go to Flagged view, or filter the whole Photos view for the color-label you used.

Searching for multiple faces in single picture

Is it possible to search for multiple faces in a single picture. I would e.g. like to search for all pictures containg Person X and Person Y.

File -> New Smart Album
Face -> is -> X

Face -> is -> Y
To get pics with both, set the condition to Match All, to get either, set the condition to Match Any

Search for multiple values

Hello,
I would like to search a table and find all values for each student that have a certain key word in the heading of a column and use all of the values found to calculate different averages. Is this even possible? Can i do a vlookup, or something like that, to search out many different values?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/kiqwl2qg50u2ubz/6th%20Grade%20Math-2012-11-08%20%281%2 9.numbers
Thanks!
-Josh

Josh,
SUMIF will do the work for you, but the searching for a particular string in the title will have to be done in an auxiliary row, not in the SUMIF expressions.
So, add a row above the row with the score titles; a new Row 1. In C1 write:
=IFERROR(FIND("N2", C2), "")
Fill Rignt
Now you have a key. Every column with "N2" anywhere in it's row 2 cell will have a "1" in row 1. You can use SUMIF, COUNTIF or AVERAGEIF to find those stats on a per-student basis. Your example file has only 2 columns with N2 in the score description, so the stats will be rather trivial for that particular set.
There's another way you can use this key. You can create a second table that mirrors the first table, but has null strings in all columns without the key and the true values for all columns where the key is "1". That would look like this...
This all seems a bit trivial, so I may be missing the point. It seems that you could just ignore the nonrelevant columns rather than go to the trouble of flagging them and filtering them out of the final table.

TextEdit for Multiple Single values

Hi,
I have a requirement to use the select option. But select option implementations
looks very complex for me. So i am using textEdit for collecting multiple single values. Like sales order numbers need to be collected in search page to display the details in next page.
   How should i restrict the user to enter 10 degits in each line and i should i collect the each line into a range so that i can use the range variable in select statement.
Basically i am looking for splitting the continues string with newline and carraigereturns characters into a internal table.
I need to write code in onInputprocessing event.
thanks for the quick response.
Regards,
Prav

hi
use this in oninputprocessing
DATA textedit TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_textedit.
CLEAR textedit.
textedit ?= cl_htmlb_manager=>get_data(
                                request = runtime->server->request
                               name    = 'textEdit'
                               id      = 'risk'
CLEAR risk.
IF NOT textedit->text IS INITIAL.
risk = textedit->text.
ENDIF.

How do I use domain guessing for single word but search for multiple?

I would like to configure the search bar to make smart decisions about weather it should fill in an address or search for results. At the very least I would like it to be able to search when multiple words are entered but fill in the address when it's only one word (eg: typing "zelda" would take me to www.zelda.com but "the legend of zelda" would use search)

The answer that you are probably looking for is what Google calls the '''I'm Feeling Lucky''' Search. Not quite what you describe but if there is one result that stands out as the most common result, you will get taken directly to the page. (Wouldn't work for me, I seldom find what I looking for in the first five hits.)
This will involve a change to your '''about:config''' configuration variables.
'''keyword.URL ''' default string
http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
The '''&gfns=1''' is what gets you the I'm Feeling lucky search.

<hr>Personally I prevent all (external) searching from the location bar to prevent errors from being redirected to a substitute page (along with additional filtering via the '''Adblock Plus''' extension).
For '''zelda''', I would type in the word and then use '''Ctrl+Enter''' so that it becomes www.zelda.com (with "Ctrl+Shift+Enter" gets .org, and with "Shift+Enter" gets .net).

* Firefox and other Browser Keyboard Shortcuts (Comparison Table)<br>http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/firefox/keyboard.htm
The '''AwesomeBar''' search is what you get in the location bar drop-down when you enter strings of characters that exist in the Title and/or url address of a previously visited site or one that you have in your bookmarks. You see those choices '''before''' you press "Enter".
Once you press "Enter" by default you would do a search with your currently selected (default) search engine, as if you had entered the search into the search bar.
I don't like the last method and would use a ''keyword shortcut'' to use a customized search or to go directly to a web page. But without knowledge of what is available using the Location bar to run an external search works okay for most people.

The "weather" threw me because for weather you really do want a keyword shortcut, the word you meant was whether.

Help to search for a string value and return the index in the arraylist

Hello,
I just start java programming for the last three weeks and I cannot find a solution for this problem. I have the following List with string and integer value as shown below:
List<Empl> list= new ArrayList<Empl>();
     list.add(new Empl(1,"Jim", "Balu",88);
     list.add(new Empl(3,"Bob", "Howards",2);
     list.add(new Empl(2,"Chris", "Hup",8);
I have no problem of sorting this arraylist either by firstname or lastname. However, I cannot think of a way to search for a firstname or lastname and returing the whole row. I do not want to use index since I am asking user to enter the name to search. Here is my code to search for an empl based on index.
System.out.print("Please enter index to search or (q)uit: ");
          String ans = sc.next();
          System.out.println();
          int ians = Integer(ans);
          if (ans.equalsIgnoreCase("q"))
                    choice = "n";
          else
          System.out.println("index " + list.get(ians)); //this will print out the whole row based on the index
Since the user will never seen the contents of the arraylist, is there a way that I can search by string last/first name and will get the index location in int if the result is met?
Please advice and thank you.
Bob.

Empl e = new Empl(1,"Jim", "Balu",88);
list.add(e);
firstNames.add(e.firstName());As long as you always add them in the same order, the indexes will match, so you could do something like
ians = firstNames.indexOf(nameToFind);to return the index of the name, if it's there (if not, it will return -1).
I wouldn't recommend this as standard practise, but it should be OK for the level you're at.
NOTE: indexOf() returns the index of the FIRST matching item. You may want to think about what you want to do if there are more than 1.

Searching for multiple words

Wanted to ask if you knew of a script I could use or any other way to search a document for any words or phrases that appear in a specific list and highlight the word or phrase if it appears in the Pages doc. I'm using Word 2008 on a Mac. For instance, my list could contain the words 'solicitor' or 'lawyer' but also the phrase 'employment unfair dismissal'. My list has about 100 words and phrases that I need to search for in each Pages document. Ideally the script or other method would highlight in the Pages doc any of the words or phrases I am searching for. Thanks, Dave.

Hi,
No. My list looks like this:
Contact Law
Solicitor
Solicitors
Lawyer
Lawyers
Legal advice
Specialist solicitor
Specialist solicitors
Barrister
Barristers
Employment solicitor
Employment solicitors
Employment lawyer
Employment lawyers
Employment law
Employment law solicitor
Unfair dismissal
Unfair dismissal claims
Unfair dismissal claim
Unfair dismissal solicitor
Unfair dismissal solicitors
Claim for unfair dismissal
Claims for unfair dismissal
Constructive dismissal
Wrongful dismissal
Wrongful dismissal claim
Wrongful dismissal claims
No win no fee employment law
No win no fee employment lawyer
No win no fee employment lawyers
No-win, no-fee solicitor
Plus maybe another 60 words or phrases. What I want to do is take the above list and check these words or phrases for how many times they appear in a Pages document. I can see how you can use the search feature in Pages for single words, but you can't put multiple words or phrases into the search field.
Cheers,
Dave.

Checkbox - not working for multiple selected values

Hi,
I've got a checkbox (with multiple static values) and a dynamic report which displays filtered data based on the checkbox selection... my report refreshes correctly for a single checkbox selection, but when I select multiple values it gives me an error message...
Here is the sample query that I am using:
select * from table_a
where
CATEGORY = :P22_CATEGORY
Please advice...

Hi,
I think the type of check box you're referring to returns a colon delimited list of values. If that's the case, you'll need a query something like:
select * from table_a
where ':'||:P22_CATEGORY||':' like '%:'||CATEGORY||':%'There is a very description here: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=ATSIN_DEMO:COLON_DELIMITED
Hope this helps,

Struggling to search for multiple files

Hi there,
I am struggling to do a search / select for multiple files.
Here is my workflow:
I have 2 computers, the one is used for all image manipulation using a combination of LR & PS and the other computer is used for the sales presentation using ProSelect.
Once I am finished with my post production I export all the images to my sales presentation computer in JPG file format.
After the sales presentation I then want to be able to Star the images they purchased on my post production computer. Currently I have been doing this manually, although time comsuming not too bad when you are only talking 20 images. However this is not working for weddings when looking at 150-200 images.
This is what I have tried. I did an export of filenames from ProSelect. I then removed the suffix i.e. .jpg. In Lightroom I select the Filter Bar, Text, Any searchabe Text, Contains and then paste in the list of filenames. After quite a while it will come back and say no images found or it might come up with only the 1st image in the list. I have tried several combinations of formating the list of filenames and none seem to work i.e. spaces, commas, semi-colon, each filename in "".
If anyone can help me in this regard I would be very grateful.
Thanks
Tony

If you have the file names of the photos, you can simply paste the text containing the file names into the filter bar text search (set the filter bar to search by file name)
For example, here's a short list of filenames that I would paste into the filter bar if I was searching my photos
