Where is the RC type cell reference??

why hasn't numbers got the RC cell reference option??
and the apple-T key cycle thru feature available as you type a formula in excel - where you change from absolute to row relative to column relative and back each time you hit that key combination.
-it is INFINITELY EASIER to use when building anything besides simple sheets

You are correct that in many instances it is an easier way of working on certain types of equations. I have used it multiple times programming automation to populate many cells of data quickly without going through the whole A1 reference style mess.
Sorry, being an engineer you will understand, I am all about numbers (I'm a Marine Engineer by education):
Fact: 10% *or less*. 3000 students worth of questions and answers over three years show it. MS documentation and teaching materials don't touch it. MS tests don't touch it. I added it to every class for my advanced/Very advanced users. *Not 1 Knew About It.* No matter how advanced. Your the first person to even ask about it in any forum I have been a part of. And yes, I have been with spreadsheets since visicalc was cool.
Hope you find a way to use Numbers, I would love to see your models, whether in Numbers or excel. Sounds fascinating.
Have a great day,
Jason

  • What�re the different types of reference?

    Hello there:
    I was asked a question during the interview:
    What�re the different types of reference?
    They meant sth like weak reference... anyone can give a more detailed explaination?
    Also someone can talk a little bit about the memory leak in Java? IWhen will it happen? One senario on my mind is that: an array filled with the references of a class, when the program is done with the array, it doesn't apply removeall on the array. Will it cause memory leak?
    Thanks a lot,

    Where is the vertical type tool in InDesign CC 2014???

    Thanks. Yes, I had referred to that InDesign Secrets post before posting my question. Thus my question about table. Still dont know why my insert table command is greyed out. The stairstep method doesnt work with my narrow spine and decorative, non-monospace font, as explained in exchange here with Bob Levine. And downloading the CJK version for this single, simple task is just too much trouble. The individual text frames proved the fastest solution.

  • Where are the SQL and PSQL reference manuals gone ?

    Hello,
    I cannot found the SQL and PSQL reference manuals on OTN. In previous version of this web site, there was direct links available, but they seem to have disappeared. As a SQL developer, I have frequently to search in those manuals:
    - Oracle8i SQL Reference Release 8.1.5 A67779-01
    - Oracle8i SQL Reference Release 2 (8.1.6) A76989-01
    - Oracle8i SQL Reference Release 3 (8.1.7) A85397-01
    - Oracle9i SQL Reference Release 1 (9.0.1) A90125-01
    - Oracle9i SQL Reference Release 2 (9.2) A96540-01
    - Oracle8i PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference Release 8.1.5
    - Oracle8i PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference Release 8.1.6
    - Oracle8i PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference Release 8.1.7
    - Oracle9i PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference Release 9.0.1
    - Oracle9i PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference Release 9.2
    I found in this forum links to Oracle9i SQL Reference
    Release 2 (9.2) and PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference
    Release 2 (9.2), but I would appreciate to have links in the OTN page. Why did you change this ? I must now use Google to search the informations that I need.
    Regards

    FYI, all the Oracle manuals are online at http://tahiti.oracle.com. There is also a SQL & PL/SQL statement lookup feature that strikes me as a bit easier than using the manual.

  • Where is the Crystal Reports formula reference zip file?

    I am just getting started in Crystal Reports and I have seen a reference to cr8_formularef.zip. This file is supposedly contains all the functions and operators in Crystal Reports. But, when I do a search for it here, all I get is a reference in the Crystal reports for Visual Studio 2005, which then tells me to go search for this file at Business Objects web site!
    Ok, where is this file? I want to download it. Thank you

    If you go to http://help.sap.com/content/bobj/bobj/index.htm, you can download the CR 10 User's Guide/Online Help at http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/ce10/en/cr10_UserGde_en.zip - that should be compatible with VS2005.

  • Where is the latest Dreamweaver API reference?

    Is this Dreamweaver API Reference (for CS5 & CS5.5) the most current refference?
    I'm looking for a referrence for Dreamweaver CC

    Yes, that's the most up to date API reference. It hasn't been updated for either CS6 or CC.
    The Dreamweaver API documentation has never been completely up-to-date. There are a lot of undocumented features, but the JavaScript files in the main configuration folder are usually well commented.

  • Is it possible to copy and paste a formula without changing the cell references?

    I am trying to paste a formula to a cell adjacent to where it currently is but when I do, the cell references in it change. I am trying to get exactly the same formula in the cell (without re-typing it).

    dedwards96 wrote:
    Just another quick question, is it possible to make a large number of cell references 'absolute'?
    Individual cell references in formulas may have four distinct states: relative, absolute column, absolute row, or absolute column and row. These are set using the popup menu on the reference itself. Click on the reference in the formula and choose one of the four states from the popup menu.
    Once set, you can fill the formula into the rest of a column or row using the Fill Handle (small circle at the lower right of a selected cell). Cell references in the new copies of the formula will remain absolute or adjst to their new position dependent on the setting for each reference. You can also copy and paste the cell (single click to select it, command-C to copy) with the same results.
    You can also copy/paste without changing the formula's cell references if you select the formula (Drag across the formula in the entry bar, copy, press tab to deselect and reconfirm the formula in the original cell) rather than the cell. Pasted into a new cell, the formula will appear as if you typed it in exactly as it was in the original cell—neither absolute references nor relative references will have changed.

  • How to view cell reference not its text name?

    One of my spreadsheets in Numbers 3.0.1 is displaying cell text descriptions when I view formulas.  Somewhere there must be an option to view the alpha-numeric cell reference ID's, re: A1, A2 - etc.  But, I can't find where it's hiding.  Can someone please tell me where to look?  Thanks.

    The last reply was a while back, but since this was useful to me, and I tend to agree with SGIII about not being able to turn it off, here's what I did for my iPhone (but what a pain to have to deal with something like this.)
    It's easier to do this on the Mac and then mail it out for the iPhone (mine is 5s with latest 7.)  The names that will be used for cell names in formulae are the nearest row header to the left and nearest column header upwards.
    Insert a new header row after any text headers you have, if any, and leave the just created one blank and hide it.  Do the same for the column headers.  In my case, I didn't have any row text headers so I just have one blank, hidden header.  I did have column headers so I added a extra blank, hidden header beneath it.
    Now, all that voluminous and, in my opinion, confusing cell naming business in formulae goes away and the actual A1-type references will appear.

  • Scaling factors for queries with cell references

    Hello Experts,
    We have this issue, we have queries which have 2 global structures with the cell references for few of the elements of rows and columns structure.
    we need the scaling factors and currencies of the query which are defined in the rows and columns structure are to be displayed as separate column but with in the cells.
    We have checked for the queries with the 2 structures without cell references are displayed as we need. But for the queries with the cell references on the 2 structures are not displaying the scaling factors as we need in separatly.
    how can we make the query to display the scaling factors along with currencies to be in separate column.
    we have entry selection as currency where we have only one currency can be entered so the we do not have the problem of multiple currencies.
    please find the screen shot how we need the scaling factors to be displayed for the queries with cell references.
    We have scaling factors enabled as 1000 for KFs and for % selections we have scaling factors as 1.
    Thanks,
    Santhosh

    Hi
    If 'Cell Editor' is been used then that query must have the structure in it. You have to select that 'structure' object in your 'VC Table'.
    If you select that then you will get the required result in the output. This structure will be the structure where 'cell reference' is used in BI query, You have to select that structures name.
