Using a formula that works in Excel

Is there a way to create this type of formula that works in Excel but not in Numbers 09
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Utilization!A10:A190="Jan"),--(Utilization!C10:C190="Personal"),- -(Utilization!D10:D190))
This is referring to second page "Utilization" but doesn't have to in new numbers spreadsheet.
Have 3 columns. 1st with month, 2nd describing type of work, 3rd with hours.
New cell will have product of 1st two items.
Can pm example if this sounds confusing. Thanks.

You're right, it sounds confusing. It sounds like you want to create products of Months X Description of work X Hours and then sum them up.
It's as amazing to me that it would work in Excel as that you think it would work in Pages or Numbers.

"You can't compare a date with a number" in a formula that worked in Excel

I opened in Numbers an invoice file which was created in Excel. Formula returns hours worked. It has an "if" condition for the date field. I am assuming that that is the reason I get this "You can’t compare a date with a number because their data types are different." What do I do?
Formula reads =IF(SUM(A11)>0,(D11−C11),"") where A11 is a date and D11- C11 are times, ie 4PM and 5PM

Jerrold Green1,
I agree with your words about using Sum with a single cell [have no idea why the "creator" of the file did that]; same for the parentheses enclosing subtraction. Yet cleaning it up as you showed me [=IF(A11>0,D11−C11,"") ] I got the same comment
"You can’t compare a date with a number because their data types are different."
Makes me think that t quinn is on to something with his "think the issue is with the expression ">0". Could it be that >0 is the number referred to and <>"" and ISBLANK are not numbers?!

Any idea of easy to use wire frame that work with jDeveloper or APEX?

Hello there,
Anyone has an idea of any easy to use wire frame that works well with Jdeveloper or Oracle Application Express? I was asked to check out some of the wire frame in Google and I am looking for suggestions.
Any suggestion is welcome...

Hi,
wire frames are technology agnostic and are to sketch user interfaces and navigation flows. So there is no dependency to JDeveloper or APEX. For ADF Faces - as Timo mentions - we do provide Microsoft Visio stencil to mockup user interfaces. However, these go beyond wireframes because wireframes don't actually focus on look and feel but layout only

Is there an array function like the excel formula that works with Numbers??

You can't do it in Java without using the reflection API. Look it up and you will find the way to do it, but like was said, it isn't that easy.
A better option might be to create an interface like:
public interface Executable {
public XXXX execute(); // XXXX would be the type the execute method should return
//maybe add a public void init(YYYY); method to setup class attributes as needed
}Now, you create several classes that implement the Executable interface and perfoms the different functions that you want to do:
public ShowExecutable implement Executable {
public XXXX execute() { return show(); }
public XXXX show() {
    System.out.println("<OPTION value='0' selected>ALL</OPTION>");
    return; //Assuming XXXX == void
public void AddField(Executable exe) {
    exe.execute();
}

I want to convert this excel formula into a formula that works in Numbers =INDEX(Codes!$B$1:$B$9998;MATCH(TRUE;ISNUMBER(SEARCH(Codes!$A$1:$A$9998;'Curren t Account'!E4358));0))

I want to convert this excel formula into Numbers formula =INDEX(Codes!$B$1:$B$9998;MATCH(TRUE;ISNUMBER(SEARCH(Codes!$A$1:$A$9998;'Curren t Account'!E4358));0))

Without knowing the structure of the spreadsheet, or what e3xactly you are trying to do, it would be hard to advise. however, have a look here: http://help.apple.com/numbers/ipad/2.0/

Formulas to work like Excel for Keyboard navigation?

When I type a function in Excel, the variables show up like "PMT - (pmt, nper, int...etc). Plus, I can use the arrows ("<-", "->") keys to navigate to cells without typing "d5", "c5" etc. Am I missing something, or did Apple miss something? Does Excel have something patented? Why can't I use the keyboard?
Anybody know...?
Hank in Florida

I think I understand why apple chose no to implement keyboard navigation for formulas.
In light of the nature of sheets in Numbers, where you can have multiple sheets that are disconnected in the same page - you wouldn't be able to jump from one to the other without the mouse anyway.
But I would gladly do what I do in any other spreadsheet software out there: when I need to move to another sheet (another tab) in the spreadsheet I grab the mouse, click on it, and happily resume keyboarding.
At least give me the ability to navigate via keyboard on the same sheet where the formula is tacked.
Please?

Same transformation using xref:lookupXRef() that works in BPEL fails in BPM

Hi,
Developing using JDev 11.1.1.5 I'm trying to get the lookupXRef() work in a transformation in a BPM process but it fails with no error message just causing empty output xml. In an attempt to debug I copied a lookupXRef() from another transformation used in a BPEL process, hardcoding everything, with no luck.
Could it be that supporting jar files are not available for transformations done in BPM process?
Appreciate input, thank you.

Have you configured your default channels from OEM, try configuring all your default channels at RMAN level, so that you dont have to specifiy in run { } script;

I want to acquire data for multiple channels using PCI 6120 that works on traditional DAQ. I cannot access more than one channel, can someone help me or if someone has data acquisition vi for PCI 6120, please send me over . Thanks

I have PCI 6120 card and I want to acquire data for more than one channels. I'm using traditional DAQ to get it. But it does not work for more than one channels. If someone has a data acquisition vi for PCI 6120. Or some suggestion how to aquire data please let me know.
Thanks

Hello DSPGUY1,
You can definetly acquire from several channels. For your convenience, I have appended below the content from help that tells you how to configure it:
"channels specifies the set of analog input channels. The order of the channels in the scan list defines the order in which the channels are scanned during an acquisition. channels is an array of strings. You can use one channel entry per element or specify the entire scan list in a single element, or use any combination of these two methods. If x, y, and z refer to channels, you can specify a list of channels in a single element by separating the individual channels by commas, for example, x,y,z. If x refers to the first channel in a consecutive channel range and y refers to the last channel, yo
u can specify the range by separating the first and last channels by a colon, for example, x:y."
Hope this help.

TS3274 Deleting Disabled AppleID and using a new that works with apps gotten with disabled apple ID

I gave my iPad 2 to someone to download some apps for me.The guy used his apple ID to download the apps.the apple ID used is now disabled. I want to be able to use my new apple ID to update all apps downloaded including the ones downloaded using the initial ID.

My iPhone 4s refuses to use certain chargers that work on other iPhone 4s's such as the Mophie Juice Pack Air and when starting up the screen is from time to time covered in white lines that fade with time, what is wrong?

Read the question. This has been on going since I recieved my phone but has gotten worserecently.

With iOS 7.1, Apple has incorporated a means of sensing the cable and charger as to their meeting the Apple specs. That does not mean they prevent use of third-party components, but those components must be fully compliant with Apple's specs. There have been a lot of users asking why they get the device not supported message...rarely is due to anything other than a cable or charger not fully compliant with the specs.
Be sure you are using cables and chargers that comply, and if you get the message, it means there is a problem with the component.

Firefox won't download pdfs from some sites, e.g. Wells, but others too. Bank said use IE - that works. Help

Only seems to happen on financial sites. I use xp sp3 on lenovo thinkpad t61.
E.g., to download a pdf statment from Wells, I open the statment and then try to save it, but no option to save it. Called bank, they say to use Internet Explorer - that works. With IE I can right click on the file and then use "Save as" or I can open the file and "Save a copy". Can't do eaither of these w Firefox 19.0.2. I don't think that this used to be a problem. This is not a problem with all pdf files from all sites.

Sorry you are having problems with Firefox.
===CARE this is a public forum ===
Do not post sensitive or confidential information.
Firefox has a new built in pdf viewer, and whilst this has been released it is still undergoing development, with bug fixes due and further features likely to be added.
I do not notice any named pdf reading plugin in your system details, but you may need to consider using a third party pdf reader for now:
*When you open the pdf s do you see any Firefox warning information bar at the top edge of the document, or any warning with in the pdf itself about incompatibility and using another viewer ? <br/> see also

There is a possibility sites or pdfs may be faulty, and that advice given may not be the best. Please give links to any faqs etc publicly posted by banks relating to pdf use, and the web address of the banks are having problems with.
One of the problems with the Firefox viewer is fixed in the firefox Beta channel and possibly in an add-on you could consider trying those.

Excel upload FM that works in multiple GUI versions

Hello all,
I am looking for some standard SAP functionality that has been released for customer use to upload Excel files into SAP. We have been using the following two function modules for a number of years successfully. Now the data is not uploaded correctly into the internal table with GUI 620 patch level 65.
ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE
KCD_EXCEL_OLE_TO_INT_CONVERT
SAP's response was that these are not officially supported and they would be happy to charge a consulting fee to help us find a solution.
The following function module works successfully in all the different patch levels of GUI 620 and GUI 640 that I have tried. However this function module has not been officially released for customer use either. Meaning at any point in the future this function module could break as well.
TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP
The Excel file that we are using contains a macro. I get very strange results when I try to upload the file using GUI_upload. The characteristics and the parameters of the macro are being intermingled with the actual data in the Excel file.
Is anyone aware of a function module or method of a class, that has been released for customer use, that works successfully in all patch levels of both GUI 620 and 640? We are using SAP version 4.7.
Thanks

April,
Thanks for your reply. HR_PK_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE does not show up in our system when doing a search on function modules. It is good to know that TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP has been released for customer use in newer systems than we are currently using.
I think that I'll use this function module, TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP, and call it a day.
Although, I am still interested in other solutions if anybody out there has one.

Working day formula that excludes weekends and holidays in WEBI

Hi Guys,
Can we calculate a working day formula that excludes weekends and holidays in WEBI OR in Universe?
The universe I am working on is using stored procedures, so there are no joins or modelling done. Although there is a workday stored proc that I can bring in the universe.
I am just thinking if there is no modelling or joins done in the universe how will this help me in webi?
Your suggestions will be very helpful.
Thanks,
Jitan

One more suggestion I need from you -
I have a Work_Calendar_VW that has the following columns -
Calendar_Date - 5/1/2014
Calendar_Year - 2014
Calendar_Month - 5
Calendar_Day - 1
Work_Day - 1
Day_Type - WD (Work Day) For Weekends this will be displayed as WE
The columns have all dates for current year in SQL Server.
I am going to pull this into the universe and create 2 derived tables to calculate MTD Day counts.
Derived Table 1 - Calculate Yest Work Day... this will remove all the weekends and holidays and give me the last working day. This includes couple of case statments to check each day if it's a working day or weekend.
For Work Day the above code will be 1 and for weekend 0
Derived Table 2 - This will give me the count of working days in current month using the above view and Derived table 1 Below is the code -
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM Work_Calendar_VW
WHERE [Work_Day] = 1 AND
(Calendar_Date BETWEEN CAST(CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),MONTH(LastWoringkday()),101) + '/01/'
+ CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),YEAR(LastWoringkday()),101) AS DATE)
AND LastWoringkday()).
I cannot do joins because this universe has been built using stored proc and would like to implement this in BO universe.
let me know if this is the right approach.
Thanks,
Jitan

Structure XPTO contains formulas that use cells as part of the formula

Hi,
I'm having the following error in query designer.
"Structure XPTO contains formulas that use cells as part of the formula".
In the query i'm working I don't use cells.
Do you know what this error means.
Best regards,
João Arvanas

Hi João, Is there a possibility any of your formulas in the structure may be referencing some other query / CKFs? Is it possbile your structure was created in another query & reused in your new one? If so, you may unlock all links using the option 'Remove Reference' which can be accessed by right clicking on your structure.
