Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice Calc - Date - increase number times...
David, A follow up to my first reply. I wanted to investigate a bit more to see if I could produce a macro that actually incremented values in column B based on the corresponding cell in column D being changed. This works for me incrementing the value in col B by +1 when the value in column D on the same row is changed. Please note, it only works for the first sheet of the workbook. I expect it could be made to work for the current sheet but have not investigated how to do that. Changing the order of the workbook tabs has no effect on which tab is recognized as the first one. In addition to the reference I named in my first post the information from this second reference was instrumental in making a macro that only responded to changes in cells in column D. https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19064-01/so6/817-1826-10/817-1826-10.pdf pg. 119 and the macro... Sub SheetChange(oEvent) Dim rowNum, colNum as Integer Dim oDoc, oSheet, oCell as Object oDoc = StarDesktop.CurrentComponent oSheet = oDoc.Sheets(0) if oEvent.CellAddress.Column = 3 then colNum = oEvent.CellAddress.Column rowNum = oEvent.CellAddress.Row oCell = oSheet.getCellByPosition(colNum - 2, rowNum) oCell.Value = oCell.Value + 1 EndIf End Sub On Tue, Dec 10, 2019 at 11:50 PM zed wrote: > Hi! > > Using LibreOffice v6.0.7.3 on Linux Mint v19.2 Mate > > I have a spreadsheeet in Calc which records data of reactions to a > particular performer.

Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice Calc - Date - increase number times...
Hi David, As I understand it you have values in column B and dates in column D. When a new date is entered in a cell in column D or an existing date is changed you want the cell on the corresponding row in column B to increase by 1. e.g. B1 = 5, D1 = May 5, 2019 change D1 and B1 becomes 6. - or - e.g. B3 = 26, D3 = blank set D3 = Feb 3, 2017 and B3 becomes 27 The root of an answer is here, https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/84677/which-event-macro-on-spreadsheet-contents-change/ Provided by Peter Williams. The macro sample would need modification but seems to clearly demonstrate the capability you wish to implement.

[libreoffice-users] LO Base: Boolean Report values
I wonder if anyone knows how to solve this little problem? I am trying to construct a report from a Table/Query in Base. Amongst other data there are five boolean flags (Type Yes/No[BIT] to be printed from each record. Thinking that it would take up too much space on the paper together with the labels, in my naivity, I thought it would be easy, to print a single character (e.g. "y", "n", or even better U+2611, U+2610) for the values each time, rather than the clumsy defaults TRUE or FALSE. After several hours(!!) of experimentation with 'IF' expressions and field definitions in various places (Report fields, Query fields), I have come to the end of my creativity. I cannot believe that this simple idea has no simple solution...but what is it? Can anyone point me in the right direction?

In simple terms, I want to know whether there is any way that when I enter a new date in Column D it will automatically increase the current value in Column B by 1. I guessed that you meant something like this - but no, it wasn't clearly stated. If you could achieve what you ask, the result would be hopelessly fragile. We all make mistakes. Suppose that you enter your new date incorrectly. The value in column B will be incremented. Then you need to enter the correct date, whereupon the value in column B will be incremented again. How would you then correct the situation? If you tried to correct the value in column B manually, you would overwrite whatever formula there was doing the trick for you in the first place - and disable it. And what if you entered a correct new date but mistakenly for the wrong person? There is, I think, a solution, and that is to separate data entry from the display you actually want to see. Construct a separate area - quite possibly on a separate sheet of the spreadsheet - for your data entry. This will have a row or column for each of your named "reactors", and you will add dates here instead of in the results sheet directly. Note that you *add* dates, so that you assemble a list of dates, rather than overwriting a single entry with the most recent date. Now all you need to do in column B of your display table is to construct a formula which counts the number of dates currently listed for that person in the data entry area. And in column D of the display table you will similarly construct a formula which picks up the most recent date from the data entry area. With this scheme, any mistaken entries can be corrected with the display table always picking up the corrected values. I trust this helps.
