Java Version

2020-05-19 Thread Vince@GMAIL

Hello Group:

My Windows 10 Home is used on a 64-bit architecture DELL desktop.

I recently downloaded and installed Libre Office software.  So, now I 
have both packages:


1. Apache Open Office: AOO415m1(Build:9789)  -  Rev. 1817496
   2017-12-11 17:25 (This is AOO 32-bit version.)
2. Libre Office: Version: 6.3.5.2 (x64)
   Build ID: dd0751754f11728f69b42ee2af66670068624673

The two JREs available to me are:

1. jre-8u201-windows-i586
2. jre-8u241-windows-x64

Given that a 32-bit java and a 64-bit java should/must not be installed 
on the same machine/partition. I therefore must remove one of the JREs 
from my machine.    Or, install and run the AOO 64-bit version, and 
keep the JRE-64 bit. But I am uncertain if I would loose any of my 
32-bit AOO existing files and/or templates.


How should I proceed if I go ahead with the 64-bit AOO installation?  
Will I loose any 32-bit AOO files/templates? Are there any practical 
advantages included in AOO-64 over AOO-32?


Your suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks for reading this. Stay well and be safe.

VinceB.

It Is Time for Me to Generate an Updated Telephone-Addressbook

2020-04-17 Thread Vince@GMAIL


Hi:

I am staying at home and have time on my hands, so I think this might be 
a good time to generate an updated telephone/address book in a PC format.


Can anyone suggest a "relatively" simple database template for tracking 
Names, Postal Addresses, Telephone numbers-House, Telephone 
numbers-Cell, Telephone numbers-Businesses, Medical offices' data, etc?


I started by exporting my Contacts from the GMAIL website for my one 
@gmail.com email account, and have that data now on my WIN10-x64 desktop 
PC as a .CSV file (to Excel).  I also plan to eventually enter the data 
from a paper telephone/address book into a database.  I am not certain 
which to use, (vers 4.1.5) AOO-Calc or AOO-Base.  I also have Libre 
Office (Version: 6.3.4.2 (x64)
Build ID: 60da17e045e08f1793c57c00ba83cdfce946d0aa) installed, but am 
even less skilled with its operation.


1. Should I go with AOO-Calc or attempt to learn more about AOO-Base
   for this project?
2. Any suggestion for a template file would be appreciated.

Thanks for reading this.

Regards and stay safe,

VinceB.




Re: Calc Help

2020-01-20 Thread Vince@GMAIL

Hello Alan B:

TNX for reading my query about Calc Help-updating Data.ods.

For reasons, unknown to me, my pasted example seems to be 
plain/unformatted text, although I had sent it out via Mozilla 
Thunderbird email client using both HTML and plain text to the AOO 
mailing list, and appeared properly displayed in my compose window.  I 
realize that w/o the full formatting, it is difficult to read and 
understand what is displayed at your end.


This Dropbox link, I think, will allow you to download the full AOO-Calc 
file:


https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/2ibk2u5elew1y4mx9b583/Calc-Help-updating-Data.ods?dl=0=zeujgqduhbuo82jmxryylinvd 
.


I am trying to "harvest", via a formula or function, the resulting 
_Match Series_ (column G) data, which is data only relevant to Vince's 
game scores. Sorry, I neglected to include the _Vince's Individual 
Record_ heading over columns B:L in my original example.  The game 
scores for Vince (only) are being tracked on a weekly basis to generate 
the result that is given in column $G.


At present, Cell AL7 contains the formula =G26. This value changes each 
week, as Vince's new scores are poked into columns D, E, and F each week 
(i.e., on the next week's row). So, at present, I am manually changing 
the formula within AL7 to reflect the current week's row.


(The _Match Series_ data for my teammates Russ, Dave, and Bob are being 
poked manually into AL6, AL8, and AL9, weekly. )


In another thread, dated 1/18/2020,  Brian Barker has offered 
suggestions using =MATCH, =OFFSET, and =INDIRECT functions.  I am not 
familiar with those functions, but will likely attempt their use when 
time permits me to learn more about them. Brian also prefers the use of 
minimal examples; therefore, I fear that I am verbose in my queries and 
comments. However, I am hopeful that my comments above have been helpful 
in clarifying my OP.


Again, thanks for your interest in solving my problem.

Regards,

VinceB.

Hello Vince,

I'm intrigued but not able to follow what you're trying to do. Columns D
through H appear to be the games bowled in any given week, rows (or should
I say weeks) 1 through 21 are the results of the games in those weeks. That
seems clear to me. But whose games, Russ, Vince, Dave, or Bob's?

The disconnect comes with "using the results in [AL] and [AN]".

How does a single row shown as 1 - 21 and columns [D] though [H] in your
example relate to multiple individuals [AL] through [AN]?

They do not .

And more importantly, what are you trying to achieve? If I understood that
I might be able to offer some useful help.

Links Do Not Work in Calc

AOO 4.1.5 on DELL desktop; WIN10 Home x64

I don't know or understand how update Links, or update Styles, is 
supposed to work in Calc.


Each time a Calc file is opened, I am prompted for a Yes/No to up date 
All Links, or sometimes Y/N to update New Styles.


In an opened Calc file I have selected a cell and pointed to a specific 
cell that is located in a different Calc file.


( e.g., entered in the cell:

=('file:///C:/Users/Username/Documents/./filename.ods'#$'sheetname...'.J79 
).


This is no longer working in several Calc files ( "0" value is returned 
rather than the expected value contained within the external file & 
Cell). But, this /pointing to an external file's cell/ does work in a 
New Calc file, when pointing to the same external file sheet & cell.


I hope that somebody can point me in the direction of or give me a 
description of how this is suppose to work, and perhaps enlighten me on 
the possibilities of why it is no longer working for several of my 
existing Calc files.


In addition, I would appreciate receiving hints about the Update/Use Old 
Styles template prompts.

like to also. Example (copied from a CALC spreadsheet):







Does anybody know of a technique of placing shading on alternate rows in

Does this require use of macros or is there a function that can

Implementing this in my CALC spreadsheets might lead to some

Have you read "Hyperlinks and URLs" in Chapter 10, "Linking Calc 
Data", of the Calc Guide? You should, you know.


o Go to Insert | Hyperlink (or click the Hyperlink button in the 
Standard toolbar).

o Click Document at the left.
o Under Document, click the Open File icon and browse to and select 
your target text file.

o Under "Further settings", select Text or Button as preferred.
o For Text, enter the text you want to appear for the link.
o Click Apply and Close.

You may want to go to Tools | Options... | Load/Save | General | Save 
and to tick "Save URLs relative to file system" or to leave it 
unticked if you want these to be absolute. The usefulness of relative 
addressing is that the link will still work if the files are moved but 
retain the same relative positions in folders. So if you have , say, 
both files in the same folder or perhaps have the text file in a 
"Text" subfolder of the spreadsheet's folder, the hyperlink will still 
work if both files are moved - perhaps even to another system - but 
retain their relative positions. Do not worry that, even with relative 
addressing chosen, the address for Path in the Hyperlink dialogue will 
always show as an absolute path.


I trust this helps.

What am I not doing correctly? I have shut down AOO and restarted AOO

with the same problem.


I think you are perhaps contradicting yourself here. You say you saved 
the template in My Templates using File | Templates > | Save... . But 
then you say that you used Save As... (presumably File | Save As...) 
to save a document file (as a template) to a specific folder - the 
"template" folder. These are two different things, and I suspect that 
confusion between the two is causing your problem.




No, I did not use File | Save As.  Perhaps I have misspoken, made a typo 
or experienced an unwarranted PC auto fill.   I used File | Templates> | 
Save ... while having the revised (blank numerical data) file opened; to 
place the new template into AOO's template folder, (%AppData%). I chose 
to name the newly created template: IRS Income Tax CalculationsTEMPLATE 
(no space between Calculations and TEMPLATE).


In general it is good practice to use the user interface provided and 
not to try to take shortcuts that you think or hope will produce the 
same effect. So I suggest that you should use File | Templates > | 
Save... and that you will see no problem that way. OpenOffice is being 
cleverer that you give it credit for here, such that you can give 
templates names which are not possible file names in the Windows file 
system. Take, for example, a template name containing a question mark: 
you can have this, but OpenOffice needs to use an alternative file 
name where it saves the template - and does. I suspect that you have 
been saving and deleting templates and files and confusing OpenOffice 
and possibly also yourself. I'm guessing that the "wrong" name you see 
is one your somehow previously ctreated.


I am unclear as to how I managed to make AOO confused about the template 
name.  In any case, looking forward, I shall make an effort to think of 
the %AppData% folder as an Authorized Personnel Only area; perhaps go 
there when I need to view template names and/or date of 
creation/modified, etc. Maybe also when I have downloaded a template 
that then needs to be imported there.



Recommendation:
Close File Explorer and don't meddle in %AppData% unless you really 
have to.
Save, organise, and delete templates using the File | Templates 
interface.
Delete any wrongly named template there and save it anew with your 
preferred name.

In any spreadsheet application, there is a limit to the number of 
columns (and rows) that you can use. The limits are so large that you 
don't usually have to have any recognition of them. But when you 
insert a column (or row), an existing column (or row) has to be 
knocked of the side or bottom of the sheet. This is fine if that 
column (or row) is empty - as will normally be the case - but not if 
it contains a value or formula. If you cannot insert a column, there 
must be something in the extreme right hand of the available columns; 
that's *available* columns, of course - not just those you can see.


So why is there something in that column? Unless your active data is 
unusually extensive, it is probable that you have used a technique to 
fill at least one row indefinitely, perhaps using Edit | Fill > | 
Series... or by selecting an entire row before pasting some content, 
which will have put content into all the possible cells of that row. 
The reason that you can insert new rows is simply because you have not 
filled any column indefinitely in the same way.


There are various solutions:
o When filling the row or rows, avoid doing so indefinitely.
o Move to the right of the spreadsheet area that you are actually 
meaning to use, and delete an unnecessary column or columns. This will 
move the rogue material at the extreme right of the relevant row in by 
a column or columns, leaving empty cells. You will now be able to 
insert a column, dropping a new, empty column off at the right.


I trust this helps.

Unable to Insert a Column

2018-05-23 Thread Vince@GMAIL


AOO415m1(Build:9789)  -  Rev. 1817496
2017-12-11 17:25

Desktop Win10-64



Working with an existing Calc spreadsheet, I copied it in its entirety 
to a new sheet. I now find that I am unable to insert a column anywhere 
on the new targeted sheet. When I attempt to insert a column in the 
targeted new sheet, I am shown the following error, which I have not 
ever seen before.


/*Filled cells cannot be shifted beyond the sheet.*/


I am able to insert a new row.

Would like to find out what is causing this problem.  TNX.

VinceB.




Re: Trouble printing

Glad that you managed to clean things up.  I occasionally allow my 
HP8600 to run a 'clean-the-print head' routine.


If I am not mistaken, the recommendation for inkjet printers is to Not 
have it energized until ready to put it into operation; to avoid inkjets 
becoming clogged ?

Using Calc: Have recently became aware of and began using Names in Calc 
spreadsheets (thanks MartinG.).


Is there a method to transfer Names that already exist within a Calc 
.ODS file to another Calc .ODS file? How is it done?

Re: Need Formula to use with Results of LARGE( ) Function's Result- Lookup?

I have updated my Drop Box BVL Summary Trial.ods sheet.  Here is the

Hi Again:

Well, my previous posting failed, due to the formatting not being 
carried over in the post. Copy and Paste works okay with a YahooGroup 
Mailing List, but not here. So, I am making another attempt to present 
my question/problem, and ask for advice and assistance.


(I imagine that this problem is not unlike a sales manager ranking the 
performance of 13 salesmen during a specific period, nor is it unlike 
determining which of 13 factories produced the highest product output 
over a specific time period. I have read through Chapter 7 of the Calc 
vers 3 user's guide, but did not find a solution. Perhaps this problem 
could more easier be solved using AOO- Base, with which I am not 
experienced in using.)

I am working with a data set that, ultimately, at the end of a bowling 
tournament will show a collection of bowling scores. At present, there 
are 13 bowlers participating in the tournament, and that number might 
increase.


See this drop box link, which shows my work thus far:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/rtkpz3yl7cqritu/Drop%20Box%20BVL%20Summary%20Trial.ods?dl=0 
.



Cells E25:T25 contain the names of the 13 bowlers.  Cells E33:T44 
contain the numerical data of interest (i.e., scores gathered during 
the tournament's competition phase).


I used the =LARGE($E$33:$T$44;1) thru =LARGE($E$33:$T$44;9) to 
calculate the nine highest scores within the score data of interest; 
the results are shown in cells E9:E17. This will ultimately be 
expanded to include the 45 highest bowling scores with the identifying 
bowler's name for each (qualifying) score. (I have begun doing that in 
cells G9:I19.)


I need to correlate the BOWLER'S NAME with each of the HIGHEST SCORES, 
and fill in the BOWLER's NAME column (cells D9:D17;H9:H19, etc.).  
E.g., POSITION 1 shows a score of 233 (in cell F35) and that was by 
bowler Bob M. (in cell F25).


Is there a Calc function that will "look up" the appropriate name in 
Row 25 for each of the remaining HIGHEST SCORES and display the result 
within the BOWLER's NAME columns?


Any suggestions shall be appreciated.

Regards,

VinceB.

Need Help with Calc =LARGE( ) Function

Hi:

I am working with the data set shown below, at bottom.

Cells E4:T4 contain the names of 13 players.  Cells E32:T43 contain the 
score numerical data of interest. I used the =LARGE($E$32:$T$43;1) thru 
=LARGE($E$32:$T$43;9) to calculate the nine highest scores within the 
score data of interest, and obtained the following results:


__
_POSITION_  _HIGHEST SCORES__Player Name_
1   233 
2   222 
3   194 
4   188 
5   185 
6   179 
7   176 
8   174 
9   184 





















I need to correlate the player's name with the HIGHEST SCORE, and fill 
in the Player Name column.  E.g., Position 1 shows a score of 233 (in 
cell F13) and that was by player whose name is Bob M. (in cell F4).


Is there a Calc function that will "look up" the appropriate name in Row 
4 for each of the remaining HIGHEST SCORES and display in the Player 
Name column?

How to Embed My List of Reminders

2018-03-04 Thread Vince@GMAIL



AOO415m1(Build:9789)  -  Rev. 1817496
2017-12-11 17:25   -   Calc in use on a WIN10-64 desktop.




I would like to register/link/embed a file on my computer that serves as 
a reminder of the colors that I should use within a particular Calc 
workbook, as shown below. There is a high likelihood that additional 
"reminder" entries will occur sometime in the future, so I think a 
centrally registered, stored AOO Writer file, which shall be revised as 
needed, is desired for this purpose.


At present I have the reminders present on each Calc sheet in my 
spreadsheet file. This is problematic, because it is somewhat difficult 
to paste the info when considering the width of the column and the 
likelihood that additional reminder entries are potentially needed.


I tried using copy-paste into a "comment" box, but the color shadings 
are not shown when displaying the comment in Calc; i.e., the color 
shading is required. I suspect that an "object" file must be inserted; 
however, I am not experienced in that Calc feature at present.


Can anyone suggest a method that I might use such that I can optionally 
display my "registered reminders" (see below), perhaps as a popup on 
screen while I am at the same time viewing the Calc sheet presently 
being worked on? Is it possible to "split" the displayed screen such 
that Sheet 1 is on the left and Sheet 2 is on the right? I need to see 
both the reminders and the present worksheet on the screen at the same 
time.


Thanks.

Regards,

VinceB.
