Summing a checkbox column

I'm trying to sum a checkbox column: I want the total number of cells that are checked in a given column.
My initial attempts aren't working (=SUM(ColumnName), =SUMIF(ColumnName, TRUE) and auto formulas, in particular). I've consulted Help/the User Manual, but neither has offered any insight.
I'm scratching my head, because this seems like it should be simple. Can anybody help me out?
Thanks for any assistance,
Emmanuel Gomez

A Checked Box evaluates to TRUE while an Unchecked Box evaluates to FALSE.

JTable containing checkbox column is not getting updated

My application has a JTable and the first column is made up of checkboxes I have added a mouse listener for this table and implementd mousePressed(MouseEvent) method also. So when the user presses the mouse on these checkboxes I will update my loca data structure. Now the problem is this, when the user presses and drags the mouse to some other place(out of the current cell) then the table is not getting updated(the cell is not changing its value). But my local data structure is getting updated as the event is already fired. Please suggest me a solution for this.
Thanks in advance
Varun

thanks for your information. Actually I have seen this tutorial before but I think my case is little different. Sorry for not explaining it completely. My table has got a checkbox column header and another checkbox which is not part of the table. The second column in the table contains a user object. User can select rows by clicking on the checkbox header (select all rows/ deselect all rows), by clicking on individual cells or by clicking on the third checkbox provided for a specific purpose. So whenever the user does this "selection" operation I update one member variable in the user object which is in the second column. I tried putting my code in the setValueAt() method of my table model but couldn't make it work because of my lack of experience in swing or programming. So please tell me whether what you have suggested is valid or not. I added a mouse listener because there was a requirement to show some information to the user when he do a double click on one column of the table.

Summing up a Column in ALV report

Hi All,
I have developed an ALV Report which will display Invoices and other details.
Now i need to display the sum of NETWR column, if user wish to select that column and click the "SUM" icon.
As of now, if i select the NETWR column and click 'SUM" column, i am getting Runtime error.
How to resolve this issue?

Hi Pavan,
ALV GRID CONTROL:
This task is performed by the SAP Control Framework.
The R/3 System allows you to create custom controls using ABAP Objects. The application server is the Automation Client, which drives the custom controls (automation server) at the front end.
If custom controls are to be included on the frontend, then the SAPGUI acts as a container for them.
Custom controls can be ActiveX Controls or JavaBeans.
The system has to use a Remote Function Call (RFC) to transfer methods for creating and using a control to the front end.
ABAP objects are used to implement the controls in programs.
An SAP Container can contain other controls (for example, SAP ALV Grid Control, Tree Control, SAP Picture Control, SAP Splitter Control, and so on). It administers these controls logically in one collection and provides a physical area for the display.
Every control exists in a container. Since containers are themselves controls, they can be nested within one another. The container becomes the parent of its control. SAP containers are divided into five groups:
SAP custom container: Displays within an area defined in Screen Painter on screens or sub screens.
Class: CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER
SAP dialog box container: Displays in a modeless dialog box or as a full screen. Class:
CL_GUI_DIALOGBOX_CONTAINER
SAP docking container: Displays as docked, resizable sub-window with the option of displaying it as a modeless dialog box. Class: CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER
SAP splitter container: Displays and groups several controls in one area - that is, splits the area into cells Class: CL_GUI_SPLITTER_CONTAINER
SAP easy splitter container: Displays controls in two cells, which the user can resize using a split bar. Class: CL_GUI_EASY_SPLITTER_CONTAINER.
In the control, you can adjust the column width by dragging, or use the 'Optimum width' function to adjust the column width to the data currently displayed. You can also change the column sequence by selecting a column and dragging it to a new position.
Standard functions are available in the control toolbar. The details display displays the fields in the line on which the cursor is positioned in a modal dialog box.
The sort function in the ALV Control is available for as many columns as required. You can set complex sort criteria and sort columns in either ascending or descending order.
You can use the 'Search' function to search for a string (generic search without *) within a selected area by line or column.
You can use the 'Sum' function to create totals for one or more numeric columns. You can then use the "Subtotals" function to set up control level lists: You can use the 'Subtotal' function to structure control level lists: select the columns (non-numeric columns only) that you want to use and the corresponding control level totals are displayed.
For 'Print' and 'Download' the whole list is always processed, not just the sections displayed on the screen.
You can define display variants to meet your own specific requirements. For information on saving variants, see 'Advanced Techniques'.
The ALV grid control is a generic tool for displaying lists in screens. The control offers standard functions such as sorting by any column, adding numeric columns, and fixed lead columns .
Data collection is performed in the program (with SELECT statements, for example) or by using a logical database. The data records are saved in an internal table and passed on to the ALV control along with a field description.
The field description contains information about the characteristics of each column, such as the column header and output length. This information can defined either globally in the Dictionary (structure in the Dictionary) or in the field catalog in the program itself. You can also merge both techniques.
The ALV link is a standard function of Query and QuickViewer. If multiline queries or Quick View lists have been defined, they will automatically be compressed to a single line and output in the ALV control as a long, single line list.
Use Screen Painter to create a sub screen container for the ALV grid control. The control requires an area where it can be displayed in the screen. You have to create a container control that determines this area.
Use the corresponding icon in the Screen Painter layout to create the container control. The size of area "MY_CONTROL_AREA" determines the subsequent size of the ALV control.
The valid GUI status must be set at the PBO event in the flow logic of the ALV subscreen container.
The OK_CODE processing for the cancel functions must be programmed at the PAI event.
The reference variables for the custom container and the ALV grid control must be declared.
To create reference variables, use ABAP statement TYPE REF TO .
The global classes you need to do this are called cl_gui_custom_container (for the custom container control) and cl_gui_alv_grid (for the ALV grid control).
The global classes are defined in the Class Builder. You can use the Class Builder to display information for the methods, their parameters, exceptions, and so on.
Use ABAP statement CREATE OBJECT to create the objects for the container and the ALV control. Objects Are instances of a class.
When an object is created (CREATE), method CONSTRUCTOR of the corresponding class is executed. The parameters of method CONSTRUCTOR determine which parameters have to be supplied with data when the object is created. In the above example, object alv_grid is given the name of the container control (g_custom_container) in exporting parameter i_parent, which links the two controls. For information on which parameters method CONSTRUCTOR possesses and which of these parameters are required, see the Class Builder.
Objects should only be created once during the program. To ensure that this is the case, enclose the CREATE OBJECT statement(s) in an IF IS INITIAL. ... ENDIF clause. The objects must be generated before the control is displayed for the first time - that is, during the PBO event of the ALV subscreen container.
To display the requested dataset in the ALV control, the data must be passed on to the control as an internal table, and a field description must exist indicating the order in which the columns will be output.
In the simplest case, the field description can use a structure from the Dictionary. The Dictionary also determines the technical field attributes like type and length, as well as the semantic attributes like short and long texts. The ALV control uses this information to determine the column widths and headers. The column sequence is determined by the field sequence in the structure.
If no suitable structure is active in the Dictionary, or you want to output internal program fields in the control, then you will have to define information like the output length and column header in the field catalog.
In a typical program run, the dataset is read first (SELECT ....), the internal table is filled with the data to display (... INTO TABLE ...), and ABAP statement CALL SCREEN is then used to call the ALV sub screen container.
The data transfer to the ALV control takes place during the call of method
set_table_for_first_display from class cl_gui_alv_grid. The method call must be programmed at the PBO event of the ALV subscreen container.
The name of the Dictionary structure that supplies the field description is specified in exporting parameter i_structure_name. The name of the internal table that contains the data records to display is specified in changing parameter it_outtab.
The field description for the ALV control can be ta ken from an active Dictionary structure (fully automatic), by passing a field catalog (manual), or through a mixture of the two options (merge).
The field catalog is in internal table with type lvc_t_fcat. This type is defined globally in the Dictionary.
Each line in the field catalog table corresponds to a column in the ALV control.
The field characteristics (= column characteristics) are defined in the field catalog. The field catalog is in internal table with type lvc_t_fcat. Each line that is explicitly described in the ALV control corresponds to a column in the field catalog table.
The link to the data records to output that are saved in internal table is established through field name . This name must be specified in column "fieldname" in the field catalog.
This field can be classified through a Dictionary reference (ref_table and ref_field) or by specifying an ABAP data type (inttype).
Column headers and field names in the detail view of an ALV control line can be determined in the field catalog in coltext and seltext, respectively.
The position of a field during output can be determined with col_pos in the field catalog.
If you want to hide a column, fill field no_out with an "X" in the field catalog. Hidden fields can be displayed again in a user display variant.
Icons can be displayed in the ALV control. If you want a column to be interpreted as an icon, then the icon name must be known to the program (include .) and icon = "X" must be specified for this column in the field catalog.
The above example shows a semi-automatic field description: Part of the field description comes from the Dictionary structure (sflight), while another part is explicitly defined in the field catalog (gt_fieldcat).
The field catalog (internal table) is filled in the program and is passed on together with the name of the Dictionary structure during the method call. The information is merged accordingly in method set_table_for_first_display.
For a user to save display variants, parameters is_variant and i_save must be passed on during method call set_table_for_first_screen. To assign display variants uniquely to a program, at least the program name must be supplied in the transferred structure (gs_variant).
Program names can be up to 30 characters long.
If you only pass on the current parameters for is_variant, then existing variants can be loaded, but no new ones can be saved. If you use parameter i_save, you must pass on a variant structure with is_variant.
I_SAVE = SPACE No variants can be saved.
I_SAVE = 'U' The user can only save user-specific variants.
I_SAVE = 'X' The user can only save general (shared) variants.
I_SAVE = 'A' The user can save both user-specific and general (shared) variants.
You can use parameter is_layout of method set_table_for_first_display, for example, to define the header in the ALV control and the detail display.
To do this, define a query area in the program in accordance with Dictionary structure lvc_s_layo, and pass on the text to display in field -grid_title or -detailtitl.
If you want to create print lists with zebra stripes, set field -zebra to "X". You can display a print preview for print lists by requesting standard function "Print".
All parameters of method SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY from global class
CL_GUI_ALV_GRID are defined in the Class Builder.
Events are defined in global class cl_gui_alv_grid; you can use these events to implement user interaction within the program. To respond to a double -click on a table line, you must respond to event DOUBLE_CLICK.
You receive control in the program, allowing you to implement interactive reporting - such as a full screen details list. The events for cl_gui_alv_grid are located in the Class Builder.
To define an implement a local class in the program, you use a handler method. In this handler method, you program the functionality to trigger by a double -click in the output table.
To activate a handler method at runtime, a class or an object from that class registers itself with an event using command SET HANDLER. The names of the IMPORTING parameters in the handler method correspond to the names of the EXPORTING parameters of the related event.
In the above example, the local class is LCL_ILS and the handler method is ON_DBLCLICK. An object - ALV_DBLCLICK - is created and registers itself for event DOUBLE_CLICK.
You can query parameter e_row-index to determine which output line was requested by the double -click. This parameter corresponds to the line number of the output table (internal table with the data records to output). If you need information for the selected line, you have to read it with READ TABLE itab INDEX e_row-index.
This subsequent read in the output table generally corresponds to the HIDE area in conventional reporting. You first have to make sure that the user has double -clicked a line in the output table (similar to the valid line selection with the HIDE technique).
A field group can contain global data objects, but not data objects that have been defined locally in a subroutine or function module.
You can use INSERT to specify both fields and field symbols. This makes it possible to dynamically insert a data object referred to by a field symbol into a field group at runtime. Any field symbols that have not been assigned are ignored, which means no new field is inserted into the field group.
The EXTRACT statement writes all the fields of a field group as one record to a sequential dataset (transport takes place with similarly named fields). If a HEADER field group is defined, then its fields are placed ahead of each record as sort keys. You can then sort the dataset with SORT and process it with LOOP ...ENDLOOP. In this case, no further EXTRACT is possible.
The INSERT statement is not a declarative statement: This means field groups can also be expanded in the program flow section.
As soon as the first dataset of a field group has been extracted with EXTRACT, that field group can no longer be expanded with INSERT. In particular, the HEADER field group cannot be expanded after the first EXTRACT (regardless of the field group).
When the GET events are processed, the logical database automatically writes hexadecimal zeros in all the fields of a node when it returns to an upper-level node in the hierarchy. Since the HEADER normally contains sort fields for all field groups, these hexadecimal zeros in the HEADER serve as a type of hierarchy key: The more zeros there are, the further up in the control level hierarchy you go.
The SORT statement sorts the extract dataset in accordance with the defined field sequence in field group HEADER. The addition BY ... sets a new sort key.
Each must be either a field of field group HEADER or a field group that consists only of fields of the field group HEADER. You can use the additions ASCENDING and DESCENDING to determine whether the fields are sorted in ascending (default) or descending order.
Fields containing X'00' in the logical databases are always displayed before all other values during a SORT.
Processing of an extract dataset always takes places within a LOOP. The contents of the extract dataset field are placed in program fields with the same names.
The group change always involves the fields of the HEADER. Single record processing for extract datasets is performed using language element AT ( = field group).
CNT() is not a statement, but instead a field that is automatically create d and filled when is a non-numeric field from field group HEADER and is part of the sort key. At the end of the group, CNT() contains the number of different values that the field recorded in this group level.
SUM() is not a statement, but instead a field that is automatically created and filled when is a numeric field of an extract dataset. At the end of the group, SUM() contains the control total of field .
*** and CNT are only available at the end of the group level or at AT LAST.
Single record processing for extract datasets AT WITH is only performed when field group is immediately followed by field group in the temporary dataset.
Loops over an extract dataset cannot be nested. However, several contiguous loops are permitted.
The sequence of the control level changes within the LOOP must correspond to the sort sequence.
Totals can only be calculated within control footer processing.
Extracts allow only appends (EXTRACT), sorting (SORT) and sequential processing (LOOP).
Once a SORT or LOOP has occurred, the intermediate dataset is frozen and cannot be expanded with EXTRACT. Operations that insert into or delete from EXTRACT datasets are not supported.
Extracts allow for several record types (FIELD-GROUPS) with fields that can be set dynamically (INSERT is not a declarative statement!). Internal tables have a single, statically-defined line type.
Internal tables use the sequence of table fields according to the declaration for the hierarchy of the control leve l. The control level structure for internal tables is therefore static, and is independent of which criteria were used to sort the internal table.
Extracts do not depend on the field sequence for control level processing: a re-sort or a completely different control level process can take place. The control level structure for extract datasets is therefore dynamic. It corresponds exactly to the sort key of the extract dataset. The sort key is the sequence of fields from the field group HEADER, and is used to sort the extract dataset.
Extracts rely on the compiler to determine which combinations of group levels and a cumulating field the control level totals desire. The desired control level totals are determined by the processing of LOOP ... ENDLOOP blocks. Internal tables build the control level total with the SUM statement.
This procedure leads to high resource depletion for totaling control levels in internal tables.

Discoverer plus report does not sum up the column

Hi All,
I am running the discoverer report from discoverer plus (web version) and was
trying to use the sum function to sum the total amount of the report.
The sum function does not work and it only display Cell
Sum: (blank) with no actual data.
When i checked the report details some columns are calculated based on the columns which i want to sum up.
My query uses CASE function to calculate one of the columns.
I changed the aggregation behavior setting to "Show the sum of the calculated values from the contributing cells "
then also i'm not able see the totals.
Any ideas please share with me.
Thanks in advance,

Hard to answer your question without seeing what you are trying to do. Issues like this are often better reported to Oracle support, where they can get a web sesison going and be able to see what you see on your computer. Would be helpful to illustrate exactly what your detail looks like and how you are trying to create your sum. There could be several possible issues that could cause your problem, so all I can do is speculate some. Are you trying to sum one column, or are you creating multiple totals (for multiple columns)? Do you have any rows in the column with a NULL value? NULL values will be a problem when trying to sum up a column. You would need to convert the NUll value to something else, probably a zero. That would be the first thing I would look at. Hope that helps a little bit.

Report Checkbox Columns in CSV Export File are NULL

Hi,
Hoping someone can assist. Am using Oracle ApEx 3.0.1.
I have a report that consists of a number of checkbox columns where I am using the Apex_Item.checkbox with a disabled attribute.
My questions is, when I attempt to export this report to CSV format, the columns referring to the checkboxes are showing up as NULL/blank, even though I am using a 'Y' and 'N' for the checkbiox values.
Any ideas on how to correct this issue?
Thanks.
Tony.

Tony. With checkboxes you don't get a value while exporting. You can use this as an alternative:
1. in the checkbox column properties put the following PL/SQL expression in the condition (expression 1 textbox):
apex_application.g_excel_format = FALSE
2. create a new column for your Y/N values and make it conditional - PL/SQL expression in the condition (expression 1 textbox):
apex_application.g_excel_format = TRUE

Problem with checkbox column in matrix

Hello.
I have a little problem with checkbox column in matrix.
Column is binded to the UserData.
It has ValOn="Y", ValOff="N".
I use C++. It is wird problem. In matrix I have 10 columns - scrollbar role and if You want see checkbox column, You must role to the right. If this column is on the screen, and I use:
checkcell->PutChecked(VARIANT_TRUE);
then the checkbox is cheched, and if the checkbox isn`t on the screen and I use this comment - it nothing happening.
I tried to use ValOn="Y", PutChecked...
The problem i solved if the column is on the screen - if the column is first in matrix or second, but if it`s last I have a big problem.
My column with checkbox is not editable, but I tried to make it editable, check it, and then make it uneditable - the same efect.
How can I solve it ?
Sorry for my english.
Kamil Wydra

Hello Kamil,
I am not sure about your problem, but here is an example of how to use checkbox in UI API.
First, create the matrix with checkbox column in Screen painter, and the output is an xml file, like this. Type as 121 indicates that it is a check box.
- <column AffectsFormMode="0" backcolor="-1" description="" disp_desc="0" editable="0" right_just="0" title="Rented" type="121" uid="Rented" val_off="N" val_on="Y" visible="1" width="41">
<databind alias="U_RENTED" databound="1" table="@VIDS" />
<ExtendedObject />
Second, bind the column to table from DB. This is a bug of 2004 Screen Painter, so if you are using 2005 Screen Painter, there is no problem.
Third, when you open the form, you can check and uncheck the cell.
BTW, please set the editable of the column to true.
Hope this helps,
Nick

Hi,
Initialise one variable TOT_ROWS to 0.
Then in the for loop
tot_rows := tot_rows + +1 ;
so after for loop the value in the tot_rows will be the total records..
If u want it to get this value in the calling procedure of this , just declare tot_rows parameter as out parameter.
For sum of a column:
Initialise a variable sum_col to 0.
In the for loop
sum_col := sum_col+I_info.column_name
aprameter if u wish return this value as out..
I think this wil give u the o/p..
cheers,

Average sum for a column in ALV tree layout

Hi,
I've trying to set an average sum for a column in an ALV tree report. In the field catalog i set the DO_SUM field to 'X' and this will do a total sum, but I can't find out how in the code to do the average sum.
Also to get round this I was going to just set a default display variant with the "average" sum option saved after i had manually selected the columns and set it to this. Problem with this is that when i re-run it, the sum comes back as a total rather than an average. I have tried setting display variants on the SAP example ALV tree programs and the same thing happens.
Does anyone know how i can get round this?
Cheers
Matt.

Hi,
In addition to setting DO_SUM = 'X' you need to specify function in H_FTYPE field. It should be set to 'AVG' in your case.
ls_fielcat-do_sum = 'X'.
ls_fieldcat-h_ftype = 'AVG.

How to calculate the individual sums of multiple columns in a single query

Hello,
Using Oracle 11gR2 on windows 7 client. I have a question on calculating sum() on multiple columns on different columns and store the results in a view.

ThanksLooks like you want a simple group by.
select

group by
     yr, mnth, region
order by
     yr, mnth, region;I wouldn't recommend storing your data for year / month in 2 columns like that unless you have a really good reason. I would store it as a date column and add a check constraint to ensure that the date is always the first of the month, then format it out as you wish to the client.

How to deal with the checkbox columns in the two reports on the same page

Hi,
I have 2 reports having checkbox column in the same page. Now how can i differentiate between these 2 checkboxes column and based on them the values in the reports ,while i have to do some processe based on these reports using checkboxes.
Thnks in adv.

I just got a new computer and transfered my audio files to the new computer. Itunes made multiple copies of all my files too. I am really hoping there is an efficient way to fix this problem because I have way too many files to go through one at a time.
Thanks

How to find the sum of a column

I need to find the sum of a column and use it in a different column. The following is the example.
Column names: Feedback(Good, Avg, Poor), Count(no of good, no of avg, no of poor) and %age(Feedback/sum(feedback))
I want to find the sum in Java class and also calculate the last column in java class.
Please tell me some way to do it.

oh.. ok ..thanks for letting me know.. i will formulate the question in a proper way:
This is what my UI should look like:
Rating Count Percent
Excellent 2 20
Good 6 60
Poor 1 10
Bad 1 10
Now i have the following columns in the data base:
Meaning and feedback_rating.
So the following SQL Query:
SELECT hrl.meaning rating,
sum(decode(bcpi.feedback_rating, null, 0, 1)) counted
from cmp_cwb_person_info bcpi ,
hr_lookups hrl
group by hrl.meaning
will give me the result as
rating counted
Excellent 2
Good 6
Poor 1
Bad 1
Now I want a third column as percentage : Earlier we were doing this calculation in the sql query itself, so the query was like
SELECT hrl.meaning rating,
sum(decode(bcpi.feedback_rating, null, 0, 1)) counted,
sum(decode(bcpi.feedback_rating, null, 0, 1))/(max (select count (*) from cmp_cwb_person_info bcpi ,
hr_lookups hrl )) percent
from cmp_cwb_person_info bcpi ,
hr_lookups hrl
group by hrl.meaning
Hence the third column (percent) was calculated in the sql query itself.
But now i feel that the performance of the query could be improved if we get the first two columns from the database and the calculate the third column programatically in the java code.
So this is what I want to know. How can i do that?

Possibly a very basic question but I have set up a spread sheet in Numbers and have viewed help videos but I can't get it to give me sums for the columns I highlight. Keeps coming up with the figure zero. I have version 09 2.3(554). Can anyone help

Possibly a very basic question but I am going nowhere without a solution. I have set up a spreadsheet in Numbers but it won't give me sums for chosen columns. I have viewed the run through videos and used the formula but nothing happens apart from giving a figure of zero or a red arrow. The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total as I understand from the video that you can drag whatever total is here onto the relevent position on your spreadsheet. I have Numbers 09 version 2.3 (554). Can anyone advise. Thanks.

Hi Sohojools,
To sum a column, use a formula such as this one in Cell A6
Type this in a cell below your data:
=SUM(A2:A4) or whatever range of cells you want to sum. The easy way is to type:
=SUM(
and then drag or shift-click to select the range of cells. Close the formula with a final bracket ")".
The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total
To see the sum (and other simple statistics) in the bottom left, select a range of cells. That tells Numbers which cells you are refering to.
The videos are good, but the Numbers'09 User guide, and the Formulas and Functions User Guide are better. Download them from the Help Menu in Numbers.
Regards,
Ian.

Getting sum of each column in 2D array

hi,
i want to get sum of each column from 2D array. i did public static void main(String[] args) {
          double sum=0.0;
               int[][] arr={
                         {1,2,8},
                         {2,2,3},
                         {2,2,5},
                         {1,2,8},
                         {1,1,9},
                         {2,2}
               int i=0,j=0;
               int len=arr.length;
               while(j!=len){
                    sum=0;
                    for(i=0;i<arr.length;i++){
                    sum+=arr[i][j];
                    System.out.println("sum is:" +sum);
                    j++;
     }but it doesnot work for jagged array...somebody please help!
thankx

Stop assuming the rows in your matrix are all the same length. Arrays know how long they are. Use that information to determine if the current column exists in that row.

Interactive Report with Checkbox column

Hello everyone,
our users love the Interactive Report filtering, so they want all forms in apps. to behave like Interactive Reports.
I need a form where each row consists of 2 columns and a checkbox, that handles some flag. I can create checkboxes using APEX_ITEM, however, the filtering on such column look ridicolous. I would like to have a tabular form (with one editable checkbox column), but with all those Interactive Report filtering features.
Is there any example (or inspiration) how to achieve such functionality?
Thanks a lot!
Adam

Hello Adam,
Why don't you just switch off the Filtering option for that column?
(Go to the Interactive Report, click on your column, then in Column Definition you can (un)check the features for that column).
Greetings,
Roel
