Adding list items to a page tactically - html

I have about 2000 items that I want to add my page. They are right now in alphabetical order in a word doc, and I want to add them in a list sort of manner. Since there are so many of them, and I basically right now am adding each of them one by one I needed to know if there is a quicker way I am missing? Please let me know if so.

Ok I've got some real trick out here go to TinyMCE, Copy Paste the list of words, select all and make it as a list and press submit now copy paste all the items from "Source output from post"

Open your dreamweaver and the page you are working on.
Paste the texts
Select All
Go Properties Panel Find the list button then click it. It should convert all the texts to list items

SharePoint (lists) - Multiline clamping (display only the first line)

I have a column that contains multiline data and I am trying to keep only the first line visible and hide the rest so I can have a nice displayed list with minimum gap between the lines. Ideally a JSON script to customize the column formatting. I tried to keep only a certain number of characters visible, works but then again the problem is that when you open the record, the information in that multiline field is not showing but only the number of characters we limited to be displayed in the first place.
I was thinking about putting the value of the first line in a different column (single line text) and have the rest in a different column, that i can just hide. but when i hide that column, i am not able to use my power automate flow as it detects that it is not available (...) if i can get that to work then my problem is resolved.
Appreciate everyone's inpu
There is no such function to hide a part of the multiline. We can only show or hide the whole item in the column. SharePoint will display top 5 lines and hide the others as default.
Elaborating on the comment: Power Automate does not have to work with the view that the user sees in the SharePoint browser interface. You can create a new view in SharePoint and include only the columns you need for the workflow. Give the view a nice, descriptive name.
Then, in Power Automate you can use the Get Items command and under Advanced options > Limit Columns by View specify which view you want to use to return the list items. In the screenshot, I'm using a view I called wfView. This will return the columns of that view, plus some of the SharePoint default fluff.

Looking to make an HTML form with and edit field connected to a list

I would like to preset an HTML page that has list box (scrollable) that is connected to an edit field. Every time the edit field is updated the list box should show only the items that match the text pattern in the edit field.
Am sure it's possible but not even sure what it's called and all my Google attempts have failed.
Thanks
For anyone who comes across this same question, the term that I was looking for was "creating an autocomplete form."

Selecting/highlighting next adjacent cell in row after function has been executed in google script

I am not really experienced with coding so I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question with an obvious answer...
I use a google sheet to keep track of things at work, and my employees use it multiple times a day. They will either type one of three phrases into a certain cell on a row, so I have created buttons using the drawing feature that they can simply click, which will insert the appropriate text into the highlighted cell.
Once this text is inserted into the cell, I would like to add something to the end of the function that automatically selects the next adjacent cell in the row (to the right) so they can continue typing in. Currently, once they click the button to insert text into one cell (e.g., B23) they have to use the mouse to manually select C23 before typing into that cell. For some reason you cannot use the right arrow key or tab key on the keyboard to move over, so I am wondering if there is a way to add the selecting process into the script (or even a workaround for allowing the tab or right arrow keys to work).
I realize this may seem like a tedious question and folks may think it is awfully lazy of me to ask for a more efficient way to move over to a cell than using the mouse, but my employees use the sheet hundreds of times a day, so I'd really like to maximize the efficiency for them to make it as easy and convenient as possible. Inputting data can be tedious enough, so I am trying to simplify things and make it as least painful as possible :)
Thanks so much!
There are several ways to select the cell at the right. One way is to use offset(rowOffset,columnOffset):
range.offset(0,1)
You are correct. When using a button the focus stays in the button when it is clicked. After some trial and error, I think I found a way that will work fot you. I created a html sidebar that is opened from a custom menu. Once opened, you can leave it opened, HTML allows control over the focus using 'google.script.host.editor.focus()'. Then you can type in the cell. Attached is my sample spreadsheet you can copy and try. Let me know if you need any help changing the button names or text. Sorry my first try didn't work correctly. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KlNSJnZDNIb2chUK3SlKJg79VNIrsAbIbUvHyLwTLWk/edit?usp=sharing

Select item in dropdown list by taking the text from user

By taking user-input, search for the text in the dropdown. If exists, select it. Else, print: "the text is not present in dropdown".
In Sikuli, you have 2 ways to recognize textual data:
By taking a screenshot of the whole text and creating a pattern.
Use built in OCR features to find the text directly.
It is known however that OCR functionality is very limited and not reliable at the moment, hence the preferred solution is to take screenshot of every option you have in your dropdown menu. Then you can just click on the dropdown menu to display the options and then look for your pattern. If the item will be there, you will get a match if not, you know that it doesn't exist.
Assuming you have already saved you text as a pattern in a file, the code will be fairly simple:
find("dropDownMenu.png).click()
if exists("menuItem.png"):
click("menuItem.png") #not very efficient! Left for code simplicity.
else:
print "the text is not present in dropdown"

Re-naming chart legend in Access 2007

In an auto-generated chart based on a query (I dragged the chart object onto a blank form to start it), the chart itself is displaying and updating properly, datawise, but I want to change the Legend from reading "SumOfAvgOfield1" and "SumOfAvgOfield2" to regular words suitable for final presentations. But I can't find a way to change it!
I realize this is a late answer, but I was just having a similar issue and figured someone else might benefit from knowing how to get rid of the 'SumOf' labels.
In design view, right click on the chart and select 'Properties'.
Choose the Data tab.
The 'Row Source' field is the one you're going to be interested.
In there you can see various places where it's labeling your data:
Sum() AS [SumOfData]
Just edit the text right in the properties window and you'll be set.
This is WAY late, but here's what I found (Yes we still use office 2007)
Open the form in PivotTable View. Open Property Sheet. Highlight the column you want to change the Legend Caption for. Choose the Captions Tab in the properties window. There you can change the captions for each column.
Had 4 charts on a form. 3 would let me edit the Heading of the Chart, the 4th would not. Read a lot of posts that did not pertain. Noticed the datasheet for the 4th chart was completely empty.
SOLUTION: Clicked on chart until the datasheet appeared. Added mock field headings and mock data to datasheet. I could then click on chart and edit the chart's Heading. You can also highlight and change the color of selected words in the chart's Heading. Very Nice!
Good luck,
Vancer
The SumofAverageOfFiled1, etc is automatically generated. Even if you edit it in the datasheet, it changes back (or at least that is my experience). What I did to get around this is add a Rectangle and fill it with white and size it to cover up the "Sumof" captions. You can Bring to Front the Rectangle. Then you can add text boxes to label the chart's bars to read the way you want them. Drag them over the Rectange and Bring to Front.
Hope this helps.
Everywhere I looked it said just change the Pivot Table to change the Legend Entry.
Well, let me tell you.
First, if you have no Pivot Table that you can see do the following:
go to design view and select the form
right click and hit Properties. Scroll through till you see AllowPivotTableView and select yes.
Now you can go and change the column headers!

Chart0.ChartSeriesCollection(0).DisplayName = ![XXXXX]
Chart0.ChartSeriesCollection(1).DisplayName = ![YYYYY]
Was very difficult to me to find a way to do it.
