Be sure to include the *$* symbol in the Array.

Remember: the Index, *2*, represents the (second) column, which is 
referenced to the leftmost column within the (locked) Array, *$A$2:$B$4*.


NOTE: The data in column *A *need not be only a numeric value; the data 
may be text also.

How did you do it with vlookup? I tried it out and ended up with a #N/A in

[libreoffice-users] LO Draw Newbie

2023-07-02 Thread Vince@Verizon

Hi:

I am using Windows10x64bit Home on DELL desktop and LO 7.3.2.2 (x64) / 
LibreOffice Community.


I have never made any use of the LO Draw module in the past, and wonder 
if it is suitable for creating a 2-dimension drawing that shows room 
layout with dimensions, to scale if possible.


My immediate need is to create a document/drawing of the household room 
dimensions, e.g., square footage dimensions, as if I needed to paint the 
ceiling or the walls or needed to lay down carpeting or hard wood 
flooring, or calculate/show square footage of lawn areas, etc.


Is LO Draw the appropriate module for me to learn? Or, is there some 
other program that is simpler to learn and to use?


Up till now I have been making a hand sketch of the area of interest, 
scan the sketched layout, create a PDF and then type/enter dimensions as 
text annotations within the PDF. I think there might be a simpler method.


I look forward to receiving suggestions/comments from the LO Draw 
community users. In the meantime, I will be reading the LO Draw Users 
Guide.


Regards,

VinceB.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Removal of Previously Marked Page Breaks

2023-01-21 Thread Vince@Verizon

I have found a solution to my problem.

To reset/remove all existing manual page breaks within a .ods file:

 * use View > Page Break,
 * hover mouse cursor somewhere within the displayed Page 1 area,
 * right click on the mouse,
 * select  Delete Page Breaks.

This effectively resets the .ods file to default without manual manual 
page breaks. The print output will flow onto pages that are consistent 
in area size, which is what I needed.


I must remember in the future that there is no button involved, but 
rather a requirement of mouse pointer position and a right-click on the 
mouse device.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Removal of Previously Marked Page Breaks

2023-01-21 Thread Vince@Verizon

Hi Harald:

I have viewed your reference URL information and found it to be very 
informative.  Thank you for authoring that information and making it 
available.  I used the English version; here, I am in the USA.  I 
downloaded both .ods files and followed along as best that I can. Most 
of my tables are wider than in height, so I normally do set page for 
Landscape orientation and to Letter rather than to A4.

Once again I am having difficulty in arranging balanced page breaks. A 
past experience was solved by removing the existing page breaks.  
However, I cannot locate the control button for eliminating the 
previously marked page breaks.


Please, let me know how to default the page breaks.

Hi:

I had set two Internet button hyperlinks {in cell P14 and cell P17} of a 
Calc sheet.  I changed the width of column [K] by selecting Optimum 
Width and adding + 0.1" width.


Now, after changing the [K] column width, the two previously set 
hyperlinks are displayed/overlapping cells to the left of where I 
expected them to be located, {specifically overlapping cells N14 and 
N17}. Why?


It seems that the hyperlink is not anchored to the cell in which it was 
originally set. How must button type hyperlinks be anchored?


TIA.

Hi:

Somewhere within Calc 7.3 there is a setting for allowing a full column 
range reference, e.g., [A:A], to be entered within a calc formula. I 
believe this functionality was added in Calc 5.0. I don't know if it is 
a global effect or is implemented on an individual spreadsheet basis.


I have used it once before, but am unable to locate it now. I seem to 
recall that there are three options available, including:


1. RxC
2. Excel format
3. ? can't recall, perhaps scientific notation?

Please help.

TNX for reading about my problem.

I am attempting to understand a formula that was suggested for use 
within MSExcel2016 so I might us it within LibreOffice Calc.


The formula is:

=INDEX(IF(INDEX(A:A,LARGE(IF($A$4:$B$43=$G$2,ROW($A$4:$A$43),""),ROW(1:1)))=$G$2,E:E,F:F),LARGE(IF($A$4:$B43=$G$2,ROW($A$4:$A$43),""),ROW(1:1))). 



When I copy/paste this formula first into Notepad and then copy/paste 
from Notepad into a LO Calc spreadsheet, a  #VALUE!  error is returned.


I have not ever used e.g., INDEX(A:A) nor ROW(1:1) as a range 
identifier/specifier within a formula, so I wonder if they are 
acceptable within LO Calc, or is that causing the error,  #VALUE! ?  I 
believe those identify/specify the entire [A] column and the entire 
[1] row; is there an equivalent within LO Calc.


Once the error is cleared then I will continue to attempt to 
understand what the formula is calculating/doing within LO Calc. I can 
see that it is evaluating the data within cell $G$2, the LARGEST value 
within A:A, within E:E, and within F:F; but not much else is making 
any sense for me to understand. A simplified example would be 
appreciated here.


Thanks for reading about my problem and for your comments/reply.


VinceB.




Update:

Here is a link to the original MSExcel spreadsheet, the OP posted at the 
Excel Forum; the OP was seeking "Best formula to lookup most recent and 
second most recent result from list of data" on 01-04-2016, 02:50 AM:


https://www.excelforum.com/attachments/excel-general/438242d1451890188-best-formula-to-lookup-most-recent-and-second-most-recent-result-from-list-of-data-lookup-formula.xlsx

__


Unfortunately, I do not understand the significance of:  ROW(1:1) within 
the original formula.


Error #519 says in part,


The formula yields a value that does not correspond to the definition;
Or a cell that is referenced in the formula contains text instead of a 
number.


No result (#VALUE is in the cell rather than Err:519!)





and it is true that columns H:J for row1 contain text strings, not 
numerical data.


I am still at a loss of understanding .

I have several tables/datasets within a Calc spreadsheet that uses two

1. RNG_YTD2022
2. Career_RNG

which seem to be working properly.

I am having difficulties and fatigue issues attempting to replace, for 
example,

=SUMPRODUCT(RNG_YTD2022>180,RNG_YTD2022<189) , located within a column/cell
with
=SUMPRODUCT(Career_RNG>180,Career_RNG<189) , located within the same 
column/cell.
(BTW: The numeric values 180 and 189 change from within one row to 
another row; I wonder also if I should learn about using the FREQUENCY() 
function?? )


I made an attempt to display formulae within the spreadsheet cells and 
make use of Find and Replace, w/o success.


I would greatly appreciate suggestions/hints on achieving the 
replacement/exchange of the above formulae.


TNX for reading this.

[libreoffice-users] Highlight & Delete Column Data to End of Calc Sheet

2022-09-18 Thread Vince@Verizon

Hi:

LibreOffice 7.3.2.2 on Win10 build 19043 on desktop PC.


How should I highlight all rows above row 600 so I could then remove the 
unwanted __ entries from my spreadsheet?


When working on a Calc sheet, I copied a drop down list, i.e, _2 Category>_, to the end of column [AC]. Still not sure how to correctly 
do that!  The way I did it was to first highlight the column's 
heading/label_,_ _[_AC_]_; doing that highlighted the entire column. 
Then, I de-selected the heading/label... I think there is a shortcut key 
combination to accomplish this, but unsure.


(There is no data within columns above row 600 other than within column 
[AC].)


Now, I want to remove all entries that are located above row 600.  I 
used Ctrl-End, which got me /there/, but I need to highlight all rows 
above row 600 - to the very last row, and then "Clear All" the data 
contained within cells that are above row 600, somehow


Please help.




TNX.

VinceB.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Updating Data in Calc

2021-06-13 Thread Vince@Verizon

Hi Hylton:

Thank you, OM, for giving this problem some thought; I do appreciate 
your suggestion/comments.


I understand your approach in your suggested solution; however, it does 
not satisfy my requirements. The numerical data that is entered, or 
calculated in this situation, within the rows of column [$M] must be 
reflected, overtime, only at cell $Y$4.  (I may later need to assign a 
name for cell Y4; something like: /Predicted Remaining Fuel (Gals)/ for 
use in other, future, calculations).


Perhaps I should have written in my OP that "The formula /presently/ in 
$Y$4=$M18-$W$4". I expect that that formula, obviously,must be changed 
to reach a solution to my problem, but "=SUM(M18-$W$4)" does not do it 
for me. Please note that the updated/reflected numerical data must be 
displayed only within cell Y4, and not elsewhere. Sorry for any 
confusion that I may have caused.



I have other Calc spreadsheets that require this same type of numerical 
data updating.  In 2020 Jan/Feb, I received a workable solution to one 
of my (bowling scores) spreadsheets; IIRC, it invoked the =INDEX( ) 
function, i.e., /=INDEX($'2020-21 WINTER SR LEAGUE'.G6:$'2020-21 WINTER 
SR LEAGUE'.G41,COUNTA($'2020-21 WINTER SR LEAGUE'.G6:$'2020-21 WINTER SR 
LEAGUE'.G41),1)/, but that has somehow gotten messed up by me and no 
longer works (another story, which I may soon write about in another 
thread). I mention =INDEX( ) here because I feel that function, which I 
still do not understand, may be needed to solve my Y4 updating problem.



Thanks again, OM. 73 de WA2RSX

VinceB.

[M]                                        [Y]

Row 18 -->  Row 4
Row 19 -->  Row 4
Row 20 -->  Row 4

Row 21 -->  Row 4


 Where is column W in your layout? The below is done on assumption.

A simple sum will do it i.e.:

In cell Y4 insert everything between the "

"=SUM(M18-$W$4)"

In cell Y5

"=SUM(M19-$W$4)"

In theory you could just drag the formula from cell Y4 down to the 
bottom and then just change those M reference cell numbers.


Remember that putting a $ before either a letter or number reference 
of a cell LOCKS that formula i.e. dragging the formula down a column 
to populate cells below will keep whatever is prefixed with $.


Hope it helps
