I found the blank rows, that is already great. Now I want to type "Not informed Value" to all blank values, but I don´t know how, Any hints.
Thanks in advance! I am having a great fun working with this distributed community!

Use "facet by blank-> true" to isolate the blank cells, then click "transform" on the same column and type the text you want between quotes.
It's also possible to perform the operation with a GREL formula (using "transform"):
if(isBlank(value.trim()), "Not informed Value", value)
Finally, since Open Refine 2.7, you can apply this kind of formula to each columns at once. Just click on "All -> Transform" and use the formula above.

Screenshot to clarify the problem
I'm trying to use the substr function in the field "Municipio" to create a new one called "Código" but even tough you can see the field Municipio in the attributes table, the field calculator doesn't find it.
In the screenshot you can't see the reason of the error but it is: 'Field "Municipio" not found'
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Short story - you have to put the field names in quotes.
It is better to select the field names for formulas from the list (expand e.g. Campos y valores) to the right by double mouse click and thus avoid typing errors.
I am new to VBA and am currently still studying the most basic ideas of the language. I haven't gotten that far in my VBA Code studies to write the code I need by hand, so, in the mean time, I have been using the VBA Editor to enter Property Values via the Properties Window. This has been proving far more difficult than I anticipated. My Goal is to create a drop down list for a VBA Form. I understand one of my options is to reference a range of cells in my excel worksheet by inputting it into the value field located right of the ControlSource Property. My attempts to input the desired range always comes up with the same error:
Could not set the ControlSource Property. Invalid Property Value.
I have tried looking in the VBA Help files and even searched online. I haven't had any luck finding the proper syntax to enter into this field.
I am assuming I may run into similar issues as I try to set other property values through the Property Window. Thus, I am diligently studying my VBA courses so I can simply write the raw code. But that takes time and I need this form to work as soon as possible.
Is there anyone out there that wouldn't mind lending me their brain for a moment? I would be most grateful. Having this working would bring a lot of stress off of me.
Thanks for reading!
What tigeravatar mentioned, works fine for me, for the ComboBox as well for the ListBox.
If I enter =a1:b5 into the ComboBox' RowSource, I see the values of the cells if I open the form and the Combobox. Tigeravatar's notation with $ and sheet! may be more reliable for the productive version.
The RowSource is where the boxes get their displayed items from. The ControlSource is where the chosen value finally is linked to. So if I write just A10 to the ControlSource, then open the form, then pick a value, close the form, I see the chosen value filled to the Excelsheet field A10.
Sometimes it helps to start a fresh UserForm and to add some simple fresh controls. If you seek around, you will probably alter property values that influence the behaviour in an unexpected way, and then you get lost. I have tested with Office 2010. If you have another version, it may be important to forum readers to know.
I have a grouping in my report that I want to use to link to another report. My dilemma is that I only want the link to be clickable when the value in the cell fulfills a certain criteria (number > x for example). If the condition isn't true, then I don't want the cell to be clickable. Is there a way to do this?
Edit: I've tried to set an IIF statement as part of the url, but what do I link to in the "false-part" of the statement? Using "" actually just refreshes the report, which isn't really what I want either. It also complains when I tried about:blank saying the url must start with http:// etc.
Use Nothing keyword in iif expression as false part. If Nothing is specified for Action than no link will be created.
=iif(YOUR_CONDITION, "Other Report", Nothing)
An action isn't dynamic so there's no way to turn it on and off based on a condition. But the expression you use to open another report can use an expression - whether you are using jump to report or the jump to URL action. One thing you might consider is for the condition when you don't want to jump to the other report is to jump to the same report. That is, let's say you are on Report A and you want to jump to Report B only when number > x. Then you use the expression:
=iif(number > x, "Report B", "Report A")
Report A will be cached so the net effect is that you didn't click even though the user can see the cursor change to a hand and can in fact execute a click.
I am stumped beyond belief.
I have a select box being generated by the cakephp form helper. I am feeding it an array of options, and passing an empty value... pretty standard stuff.
However, my "empty" field is showing up at the very bottom of the list.. not the top. So when the field loads, it just defaults to the first option... which is not the "empty" option.
Not a whole lot of room for error on the code here..
echo $this->Form->input('whatever',array('empty'=>'Choose One','options'=>$categories));
The only small item that might be important, is that $categories is a multi-array, so the select box has optgroups & options.
Is there some quirk/bug out there that I do not know of that is trying to force me to sneak into my scotch supply a few hours ahead of schedule?
edit: using the latest release of cakephp 1.3.x
I think that I once had the same problem.
It turned out to be the data (options array).
Is there an option with an empty key? probably the last one then.
this lead to the scenario I remember and seems to be the exact same thing.
the form helper will override this empty key value pair then and not create a second one.
without more infos from your end this will be difficult to solve.
I have a line chart in a report (rdlc), that I cannot get formatted correctly. There are 2 main things I am trying to accomplish.
1) The x-axis is a date, right now it is being displayed as the full date with time, and I want it to be displayed as mm/dd/yyyy. I have attempted to change this by using =FormateDateTime(Fields!EndDate.Value, DateFormat.ShortDate) This is exactly how I saw it in Microsoft's examples, even the one included in VS2008 (what I am using), but for some reason it says that .ShortDate is and unrecognized identifier. I am thinking this might be a bug. So any ideas on how to get it into the mm/dd/yyyy format?
2) I want the values that are being plotted not to be there actual value but the previous values before added to the value. This is to accomplish a continual upward slope, showing the totals. I would also like to filter out zero's since the first 20 entries are so are 0. When I try to use the filter option it for some reason makes the chart just a flat line.
Any suggestions to any of these problems or a link to a good tutorial would be great as I am new to using these reports. Thanks!
Update: I have accomplished these by applying changes to the actual data being supplied, I would still like to know an easier better way to do this.
You can format the date in the lable under the general tab like this.
=Format(Fields!POWDate.Value, "M/dd/yyyy")
As of now I have fixed the problem by formating the data in the SQL query to the way I would like it to be displayed in the report.
