I have a small problem. I have an excel file where I simply want to add a filter to all my columns. Firstly I don’t want to put a certain condition into the filter but just the option to filter with the toolbar with the small arrow.
Can anybody help me out?
You could use the Send Hotkey activity to send "ctrl+Shift+L"

I have a number of columns, and I want to be able to have the user press the label for each column to sort the data alphabetically\numerically by that field.
I can already accomplish this rather easily, but not very efficiently. I could make one script for each column and set it to sort by that column, perhaps even creating a global variable to keep track of the direction. Instead, I'd like to reduce it to one script and pass a variable to the script based on what button\label was pressed.
So far I've found people saying you can change the color of each one and get the variable that way, but I don't want the category headers to be different colors. Yes, I could simply use a one-step process for each one, but no way to reverse it when they click it a second time. Any ideas?
You can pass a script parameter where you specify the script to be performed on the button. From there, you can specify what field to sort on and if you like, set global variables for how the fields were sorted (order and name) that you can use in conditional formatting to give visual feedback.
There are lots of techniques out there for this, but this is one I have used especially for arbitrarily large data sets where sorts should not be done on calculations.
I just built a Google Form for a registration system. I want to prevent duplicate submissions in the form but I don't want to use the option of "Only allow one response per person(Requires Login)" mainly because of the reason that it required login to a Google Account and I don't want that. I hope there could be a solution for the same using Google Apps Script but I am not much familiar with it. Hope if someone can help me out.
As far as I know, it'll be much easier to detect & remove duplicates in the results sheet, adding a column or using conditional formatting with a custom LOOKUP or MATCH formula to see if the same value is found in earlier rows/records.
At the moment, LOOKUP is giving me spurious results. MATCH works fine. I sometimes get very delayed results from conditional formatting, so I'd go for a new column with the formula (assuming email is in column A, and you're entering the formula in cell B2)
= NOT(ISERROR(MATCH(A2,A$1:A1,0)))
This will return TRUE for duplicates.
Actually, I want to unset it.
I'm fixing up an FMP database that's been around for years. Part of it is a layout that shows a table of scheduled events. Whenever I move from one record to another, it automatically sorts on two fields: StartDate and StartTime. I don't want it to do that anymore, but I can't find it to remove it.
I don't think it's a script. There is a SORT script in the database, but removing it did not stop the auto-sort behavior.
Check the SCRIPT TRIGGERS for the fields, i think you will find in "OnObjectsave" it calls script.
right click on the field > set script triggers
It sounds like a Script Trigger may be running on the layout. To find out:
In Layout mode, navigate to LAYOUTS > LAYOUT SETUP...
and then click the SCRIPT TRIGGERS tab. Layout script
triggers can only be configured one layout at a time.
More information on script triggers can be found here: http://help.filemaker.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7465
Is this data from a related file/table? There might a "sort" criteria be defined in the relation.
Yes, I have this nagging problem also. The solution is found in Filemaker Help, topic = Sort, item = Options for Sorting Records. See next to last item in their instruction table (FM-12).
The setting causing automatic sorting is found in the Sort definition dialog that defines sort order for your layout. Somewhere in your script you defined a sort for your layout. OR, when creating the layout, you defined a sort order for it. Whichever, you need to find and open the Sort dialog box. Unselect "Keep records in Sorted Order." Otherwise, Filemaker will re-sort automatically.
Hope this helps.
I have a feeling I am probably out of luck on this one, but Is it possible to have more than one parameter in a single drop-down list on an SSRS report? For example, the drop-down could be titled shape/color, and when opened, the top of the list shows shapes, and one can be checked, then below that in the same list, is a list of colors, where one can also be checked. Possible at all?
It is really best to have separate drop-downs for each attribute, but within a single drop-down you would first set it to "Allow multiple values". You can setup your drop-down to be formatted so that the sections of available values are grouped together. Finally, you'll need to add a query or function to check that valid combinations were selected before trying to display the results. In other words, make sure only one shape was selected. You can set an error message with a visibility that toggles based on the selection. This is one method to do what you are looking for, but if you are new to SSRS, you will probably have more specific questions along the way. Once you have more details on a specific step, you can get help with that.
I'm looking for a way how to split job execution in talend studio according to actual file row - I'd like to process file rows starting with "DEBUG" in one job branch and another rows in another job branch. It that possible?
To do this, use a tMap component. Your job will look like this
t*Input--row-->tMap--out1--->tFileOutput*
--out2--->tFileOutput*
In the tMap component, you have input on the left and output on the right. In your output table, select "Activate expression filter" and use the text box to define your filter-- only rows that match that filter will be ouput from that connection. You can have as many output tables and filters as you need.
Using tMap is cool, but if number of output stream is not defined and fixed, tMap is not a good choice.
In this case using iterate link or tjavaflex can help you:
Have a look at this tutorial on "how to split a file into many files regarding a key on each record" which explains how to solve this kind of task. It is actually only available in french. The tutorial shows 3 different technics to achieve this task.
Finally I used tExctractRegeFields component - simply defined regex for matching lines. The most important (and I didn't know before) is that you can connect components with different types of connections. I did right click on used component a chose Row > Reject for new branch in job as described in question.
We can do it by using tfileoutputdelimited and tfileinputdelimited.
We have one option in tfileoutputdelimited in advanced settings and check option split out files in several files.
