Timesheet formulas in numbers '09 with multiple Start/Stop columns

Hi there you amazing people
I am creating a timesheet which will have the date, start time, stop time but also 3/4 start/stop times for breaks.
I would like to have formulas that allow me to enter as many or as little info as I need (sometimes there are no breaks and sometimes there will be several) and still give me total hours works in that day.
Apoliges if my quiery isn't clear or this has been answered before, I have had a good look!

Hi Lil,
Numbers '09 will think for you. Start with an empty table with one Header Row and enter the headings for your work day:
In Cell A2, enter the Start Time as 8 am (not 8am)
In Cell B2, enter Morning Coffee as 15 m (not 15m)
In Cell C2, Lunch is 1 h (not 1h)
In Cell D2, Afternoon Tea is 15 m (not 15m)
In Cell E2, Stop Time is 5 pm (not 5pm)
Please note the spaces (for example, 8 am, not 8am) then the cells will automatically format as Date-and-Time or Duration.
Formula in F2 (and copy down) is
=E2-A2-B2-C2-D2
Tip: When you enter a Time, it carries a Date with it. The Date-and-Time format in Numbers is exactly that. A Date and a Time from 1 January 1904 (the starting date that Apple uses as the base date).
Call back if this does not help.

Ian

Formulas in account dimension with multiple hierarchies

Hello all,
I am having troubles with finding the exact syntax for a formula in an account dimension that has two hierarchies:
- I have two parent accounts in H1 (accountA and accountB)
- I have one account in H2 that has to add up accountA and accountB
It was easy in V4, the formula would just say: accountA+accountB
Does anyone have the exact syntax for me in V5?
Some extra info:
- SAP BPC version: 5.1sp2
- SQL 2005
- I know that dimension formulas have a problem with performance, but believe me, in this case this, it is the only way
Hope someone can help me,
Alwin

Alwin,
There should be formulas in the MDXlib.lgl that look like the following examples:
*Function Hir1_P(%Arg%)
     iif(AccountL.H2.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H2].[All AccountL.H2] and AccountL.H3.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H3].[All AccountL.H3],%Arg%, rollupchildren(AccountL.H1.currentMember,"+"))
*endfunction
*Function Hir2_P(%Arg%)
     iif(AccountL.H1.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H1].[All AccountL.H1] and AccountL.H3.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H3].[All AccountL.H3],%Arg%, rollupchildren(AccountL.H2.currentMember,"+"))
*endfunction
*Function Hir3_P(%Arg%)
     iif(AccountL.H1.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H1].[All AccountL.H1] and AccountL.H2.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H2].[All AccountL.H2],%Arg%, rollupchildren(AccountL.H3.currentMember,"+"))
*endfunction
*Function Hir1(%Arg%)
     iif(AccountL.H2.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H2].[All AccountL.H2] and AccountL.H3.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H3].[All AccountL.H3],%Arg%,Null)
*endfunction
*Function Hir2(%Arg%)
     iif(AccountL.H1.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H1].[All AccountL.H1] and AccountL.H3.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H3].[All AccountL.H3],%Arg%, Null)
*endfunction
*Function Hir3(%Arg%)
     iif(AccountL.H1.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H1].[All AccountL.H1] and AccountL.H2.CurrentMember is [AccountL].[H2].[All AccountL.H2],%Arg%, Null)
*endfunction
These are functions that may be used to aggregate the values in version 5 across hierarchies. I don't think you need them all, but I included the set I have in a current application.
I hope this helps.

Downloading .xls file with multiple rows and Columns

Hi ALL,
I need to genarate .xls file with multiple rows and and Columns and sent as an email.Since our customer having Problem with .CSV files need to genarate .XLS file.
Please do the needful.
Thanks
Madhu

Hi Madhu,
You might also consider using Excel Spreadsheet XML as the target structure (namespace is urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet). When you double-click the resulting xml on a PC it automatically opens with Excel. So, users don't see a difference. It will open up a lot of options with formatting including creating multiple worksheets if you wanted to. Best of all you can stick with XML.
See my response in this thread:
Re: Convert XML data into XLS

Problems with DV Start/Stop detect with XL1s

Hello,
As the topic eludes to, I capture footage with a Canon XL1s (which I hate more and more with each passing day). This footage is then input through a Firewire 400(mini) to 800. When I select the footage in FCE, and select DV Start/Stop detect, a moment passes (where a load bar calculates), but then a small info box says the following:
*This movie does not have any breaks in the time/date information. No markers were added.*
What's strange is that I've got another clip that does creates two subclips - however - there should be more along the lines of 80 subclips. In fact, all the clips I'm trying to use DV Start/Stop Detect on have anywhere from 50 to 150 shots in each...
Anyone know why FCE isn't detecting the start/stops, and - furthermore - if there is anything else I can utilize to accomplish this?
Thank you.

Are you saying that because the clock settings were not set while recording, FCE cannot detect the DV >start/stops?
Yup.
You can add markers manually and then make sub-clips if you wish to break up a large clip .

Capture Now with DV Start/Stop Detect maintaining Timecode

I am a new Mac user coming from Adobe Premiere Pro. In Pro, I could capture an entire tape into individual clips. I am now using FCE4, and have found the Capture Now option, as well as the DV Start/Stop Detect setting. The resulting segments show an In point based on the timecode of the tape. When I rename the file and move it to a different bin, I lose the timecode (in list view, in and out point state Not Set). Is there a way to maintain timecode to keep my shots in sequence?

Playing Quicktime with Multiple Start End Points

Hello
I posted a message a few days which I received help on
regarding starting and ending a Quicktime movie from various points
in the movie. Now I have a new problem which I cannot fix at all..
Here is the problem:
I have a Quicktime movie on stage and 10 various buttons that
contain a generic script which allows input of start and end points
for each button to trigger the movie. Initially just doing this
with one button is successful.
However, multiple buttons all with the same generic code make
the movie freeze up completely. My guess is that they are all
fighting each other for control. Maybe I need something in the code
which allows the button that is being used to play the movie to
keep control.
Here is the code I use for each button, the movie is on frame
15.
property pQT,pStart,pEnd,pFrame, pVolume

sprite(me.spriteNum).color=rgb (255,255,255)

ALV with multiple header & dynamic columns

Hello All,
I have a requirement where in I need to print multiple header in alv.
For eg.
User Name : <Name_1>
Channel     : <Channel_1>
Sale Org    : <Sales Org_1>
Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5 Col6 Col7 Col8
User Name : <Name_2>
Channel     : <Channel_2>
Sale Org    : <Sales Org_2>
Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5 Col6 Col7 Col8
no of columns (Col1 , col2 ) are dynamic . Which would be the best alv type do I need do use? Is it possible using simple alv grid display. How to handle dynamic column.
Thnx.

it is not possible with normal grid or list.
I guess it is possible by using ALV Block list

Unable to create cross tab report with multiple level dynamic columns

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to develope group above cross tab report with BI Publisher.
i am unable to achieve multiple level columns dynamically.Using cross tab wizard i can achieve single level measure column ,but not the second level column.
Output should look like this:
Country1
Region1 Region2 Region3 --(level1 column)
d1 d2 d3 d1 d2 d3 d1 d2 d3 -- (level2 column)
Row1 10 20 30 70 80 90 40 70 90 --data
Row2 21 24 54 65 23 64 64 76 87
Here regions and d1 d2 d3 may vary based on xml data.Also we have page break on country.
Thanks,

Problems with "init(),start(),stop() & destroy()".

1.When an applet page has been overidden by another page,why didn't the data member has not bee changed?
See the code :
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
<applet code="BlankApplet" width="200" height="100">
</applet>
public class BlankApplet extends Applet {
private String msg;
private int times;
public void init() {
    msg = "First Applet";
public void start() {
    times ++;
    msg = "The applet has been reloaded for " + times + "times.";
public void stop() {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
    g.drawString(msg,10,15);
    System.out.println(msg);
public void destroy() {
}when i try to replace the applet page with another page , and then back to the applet page and fresh it. The browser always printed "The applet has been reloaded for 1 times".
I can't understand,when the applet page has been replaced with another,the applet is still alive,and when the applet page once be loaded, the method "start()" will be invoked, then the data member "times" will increase 1,but why it always be "1" ?
2.When will the method "destroy()" be invoked ? Can u give me an example ?

Apparently the browser instantiates a new applet object when it loads a page with an applet in it, even if that page has been loaded before. Interesting, but so what.
Another interesting thing to consider, is to create a static counter and increment that in start(). Then you can see whether it reloads the class between page loads.

Premiere Pro CC - can I waveform sync with *multiple* camera and audio clips a la Pluraleyes?

Many of us use Pluraleyes to sync DSLR and 2nd audio WAV files using waveforms. (No timecode.)
The ability to sync in Premiere Pro CC was mentioned in several feature lists, but I only see the ability to sync one clip at a time.
Is there no way to line up several MOV and WAV files, with different start / stop times and no other match other than waveform, and sync them automatically in Premiere Pro CC in a sequence (or by creating multiple merged clips)? In other words, can I mimic the functionality in Pluraleyes in this new version of Premiere Pro?

Currently, the best way to do this is by selecting all the clips in the project panel, right click on them and select Create multi camera source sequence. Sync via audio, choose your audio sequence settings (if you want audio from both clips, select all cameras) then hit ok. Multicamera is smart enough to do this batch process and make multiple MC Sequences with only the clips that match each other. Unfortunatly merged clips or timeline sync will only do one at a time. If you wish to have this behavior in merged clip and/or timeline sync, please file a feature request: https://www.adobe.com/go/wish

Multiple Start Activities

Hello all,
Does anyone succeed in deploying a process with multiple start activities as describe in section 16.4 of the bpel 1.1 specification ? i.e. something like

Hi Edwin,
I am using Oracle BPEL for one of our solutions. Now, i have a particular usecase in which I require to have multiple entry points for one single BPEL process.
In my requirement the BPEL process can be initiated by two different sources. In the first case, one third party application places a xml file at some location and using the file adapter, we pick the xml file and start the process. After receiving the xml file, we do some verification confirmation and some calculations. In the second case, our web application initiates the web application which does not require verification and calculations.
Can you please give me a clue on how to go about this situation?

ORA-01461 Error when mapping table with multiple varchar2(4000) fields

(Note: I think this was an earlier problem, supposed fixed in 11.0, but we are experiencing in 11.7)
If I map an Oracle 9i table with multiple varchar2(4000) columns, targeting another Oracle 9i database, I get the ORA-01461 error (Can't bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG).
I have tried changing the target columns to varchar2(1000), as suggested as a workaround in earlier versions, all to no avail.
I can have just one varchar2(4000) map correctly and execute flawlessly - the problem occurs when I add a second one.
I have tried making the target column a LONG, but that does not solve the problem.
Then, I made the target database SQL Server, and it had no problem at all, so the issue seems to be Oracle-related.

Hi Jon,
Thanks for the feedback. I'm unable to reproduce the problem you describe at the moment - if I try to migrate a TEXT(5), OMWB creates a VARCHAR(5) and the data migrates correctly!! However, I note from you description that even though the problematic source column datatype is TEXT(5), you mention that there are actually 20 lines of text in this field (and not 5 variable length characters as the definition might suggest).
Having read through some of the MySQL reference guide I note that, in certain circumstances, MySQL actually changes the column datatype specified either at table creation time or when interfacing with other databases ( ref 14.2.5.1 Silent Column Specification Changes and 12.7 Using Column Types from Other Database Engines in the MySQL reference guide). Since your TEXT(5) actually contains 20 lines of text, MySQL (database or JDBC driver .... or both) may be trying to automatically map the specified datatype of the column to a datatype more appropriate to storing 20 lines of text.... that is, to a LONG value in this case. Then, when Oracle is presented with this LONG value to store in a VARCHAR(5) field, it throws the ORA-01461 error. I need to investigate this further, but this may be the case - its the first time I've see this problem encountered.
To workaround this, you could change the datatype of the column to a LONG from within the Oracle Model before migrating. Any application code that accesses this column and expects a TEXT(5) value may need to be adjusted to cope with a LONG value. Is this a viable workaround for you?
I will investigate further and notiofy you of any details I uncover. We will need to track this issue for possible inclusion in future development plans.
I hope this helps,
Regards,
Tom.
