My first worksheet has smart markers.The column names can be different each time.
Can I populate a fresh worksheet with only those rows that meet a given criteria on one or more of the columns?
Example: If the columns are TYPE and VALUE. Can I add only rows which have TYPE= A to another sheet.
I have tried autofilter but it requires knowing column index and my column names change from time to time.
I am using aspose.cells for java.
I think the best way to cope with your scenario/case is you should filter and extract your desired rows/records in your query (e.g SQL statement) or ResultSet from data source by yourself, so once the Smart Markers are processed, you should have your desired data filled into the cells for your needs.

I have a workbook that contains a comprehensive list of Test Scenarios my developers are responsible for. In the workbook I would like to create a "generator" that will return a complete list of tests that need to be completed based on a specific criteria.
Criteria List. When a specific answer is selected on Sheet2 it correlates to a specific column on Sheet3, and I want to populate all rows associated with that answer AND remove duplicates onto Sheet1.
For example If B2 in Sheet2 is Yes, then I want to return all rows from Sheet3 where YES appears in Column D but if Sheet2!B2 is No, I want to return all rows where No appears in Sheet3!D.
I can successfully queue an individual line/criteria using ARRAYFORMULA(IF(TestCaseGenerator!B2="YES", IF(Disputes1!D:D="YES",Disputes1!A:M,""),""))
But I have tried several =ARRAYFORMULA, =IFS, =QUERY combinations and as I stack the criteria the formula breaks; I get one of two errors:
a parse erorr and as of yet cannot determine where exactly the formula is breaking down
Not enough arguments
I know a script may be a better option, but have not written many scripts and am unsure where to even start.
I have a table that contains data from repeated experiments (for example, site A has one sample, and the lab processed the sample three times obtaining slightly different values). I need to average these results in a separate table, but what I have read on the Microsoft support site is that a query that pulls data into another table with a calculated field is not possible on Access.
Can I query multiple data points from one table into a single calculated field in another table? Thank you.
UPDATE
I ended up doing a lot of manual adjustments of the file format to create a calculated field in the existing table that averages each sites data, so my problem is, for my current purposes, solved. However I would still like to understand. Following up with you both, I think the problem was that I had repeated non-unique IDs between rows when I probably should have made data columns with unique variable names so that I could query each variable name for an average.
So, instead of putting each site separately on the y axis, I formatted it by putting the sample number for each site on the x-axis:
I was able to at least create a calculated field using this second format in order to create an average value for each site.
Would have there been a way to write a query using the first method? Luckily, my data set was not at all very hefty, so I could handle a reformat manually, but if the case were with thousands of data entries, I couldn't have done that.
Also, here is the link to the site I mentioned originally https://support.office.com/en-ie/article/add-a-calculated-field-to-a-table-14a60733-2580-48c2-b402-6de54fafbde3.
Thanks all.
I am generating a table in SSRS based on the selection made by the user on two filters: Filter1 and Filter2 (say). The table so displayed has 10 columns and I wish to add filter option listing all available values for that column for all 10 columns.
Basically, I am trying to replicate the Excel functionality of filtering down data on each and every column.
Please note that I tried creating a new data set and a parameter taking all distinct values for a particular variable. However, I am still not able to get the desired results by filter the tablix on that parameter
Is there a way I can do that?
You'd need to make a new dataset that is a smaller version of your main dataset. It would need to return all potential values for the column(s) you want to filter in a single column to be used in a parameter.
Without seeing the design of the report or the dataset itself it's quite hard to be more specific.
I want to get data(dynamic) according to the data in another dataset and put the result in textbox of the different dataset.
Right now, the data I get is static and I tried to use many expressions but no avail.
Problem lies in editing textbox expression. Since I am getting data from different dataset, it always ask me to have dataset aggregate function in my expression. If I specified the dataset from where I am getting the data, then, I cannot make it dynamic - and I get the undesired result.
And another way out that I attempted is merging the data sets into one rather than having multiples and use it only but this was unsuccessful.
How can I make it work to get the result that I want:
By the way, the textbox and the tables are in different scope. I have tried to combine them in one scope too.
Getting data from another dataset requires an aggregate function because it can't tell what data you want from that dataset so it forces you to aggregate it so it can return a specific value rather than an entire list of values.
I think what you are after is the Lookup function. Lookup allows you to look up a value from another dataset based on a value in the table's dataset. To give a simplistic example, let's say your table was of employees and you had a department id on that table and another dataset called "Departments" which had an id and a name. You could look up the department's name using the following expression:
=Lookup(Fields!DeptId.Value, Fields!Id.Value, Fields!Name.Value, "Departments")
This uses the current table's dataset's DeptId field to look up the Departments dataset by the Id field and return the Name field.
=Lookup(First(ReportItems!EmpID.Value),Fields!EmpID.Value,Fields!Dept.Value,"dataset_which_u_retrieve_the_data_from")
Problem solved!By using reportItems instead of Fields because I am retrieving one data only,not the whole field.
Thanks guys for helping me out.
I have an Excel sheet (input) where each row needs to be saved in one of three SQL server tables based on the Record type (column 1) of the row.
Example:
If the Record type is EMP, the whole row should go to the Employee table.
If the Record type is CUS, the whole row should go to the Customer table
I am trying to use a multicast and not sure how to split the data from multicast to the destination table. Do I need any other control in between?
Any idea would be appreciated.
A Conditional Split Component sounds like just want you need. A Conditional Split uses expressions you define to route each input row to one output. In your case, your Conditional Split would define three outputs, each of which would be attached to a SQL destination.
In comparison, the Multicast Component you're currently using sends each input row to all outputs. This component would be useful if you were trying to save a copy of each row to all three SQL destinations.
