Re: Excel: Displaying Autofilter Criteria

robertmarkbram — Thu, 18 Feb 2021 19:34:33 -0000

Hi Rob,

Most likely cause of a "#NAME" error in Excel is due to a typo in a function name. Excel is telling you: you called out to a function whose name I don't know. See more in How to correct a #NAME? error.

You have named your function differently than mine - "FiltreActuel", so use that name. E.g.:

=FiltreActuel(B2)&LEFT(SUBTOTAL(9,B3:B200),0)

However, when I try yours, next I get a "#VALUE" error, which is much harder to figure out because that is Excel saying "something's wrong in the formula itself" - so anything wrong in your macro could cause that. See more in How to correct a #VALUE! error.

Maybe the first thing wrong in your macro is the use of the parameter name "feuille" - pretty sure you need to define a type for it.

Function FiltreActuel(feuille, c As String, Optional typeCol As String)

Good luck figuring that out! Let me know how it goes.

Hi Joe,

I’m not enough of a VB programmer to know the answer to this. :(

Did you ever find it?

Hi JWS,

I’m sorry I never replied to this earlier to this and admit I don’t know how to fix this either.

Thank you Victor!

I appreciate your feedback. I haven’t gone back to this in so long, but it’s cool to see new options.

Hi Rob!

When I asked about this previously on the microsoft . public . excel . misc group, someone posted code in reply that might help!

Re: Log4J: duplicate Lines in output?

robertmarkbram — Thu, 04 Feb 2021 20:47:07 -0000

Hi Who,

Yes, the first line sets up a default rule (because it is using the rootLogger): default only logging statements at the INFO or higher level will output, and they will be output by the file appender (presumably that writes to a file).

The second line says that any logging statements in the com.cml.etech package will be output at the DEBUG or higher level will output to the file appender.

Re: How do I install multiple Node versions on my Windows computer?

robertmarkbram — Fri, 27 Nov 2020 23:13:49 -0000

I am using this but frankly it's fragile. Whenever you switch to one version, it breaks the app that relies on the other version, since the main thing nvm seems to be doing is changing what C:\Program Files\nodejs points to..

I have two apps that I am working on that require two different very old node versions.. and VS Code that requires at least version 8. Anytime I swap for one, I turn around and find it's broken the others.

Re: JUnit 5 – Parameterized Tests

It was easy enough. Now, instead of "ObjectArrayArguments.create" you use "Arguments.of"

What class is ObjectArrayArguments? What API is that from?

Re: Java 8 in Anger

robertmarkbram — Tue, 06 Dec 2016 15:05:39 -0000

This talk was fantastic at the Yow! Melbourne conference 2016, thank you so much. The examples you presented were clear and gave me a very good idea of the techniques opening to us in JDK 8 and 9.

Your performance under pressure was superlative: you recovered humorously from 10% battery (need more chargers) and you coped well under intense scrutiny from Uncle Bob... copy paste programming is good right? Plus you looked like a wizard with IntelliJ!

Great enjoyed it!

Re: Debugging Alfresco Tomcat with Eclipse

robertmarkbram — Tue, 23 Jun 2015 10:34:50 -0000

Thanks for commenting @Mateusz Haex . Unfortunately, the company I was working for at the time gave up on Alfresco because we simply couldn't get the features working that we were interested in. I have not used it since, so I have nothing further to add, except try and prove that your debugging is not actually already working (as happened to me at the time - it had been working all along, I just didn't know what to look for).

Re: Rob on Programming: When to use single or double quotes in Velocity

I haven't worked with Velocity for a few years now and don't have an environment I can test in, sorry. :(

But please, when you find out, let me know here! It's worth astounding amounts of Internet points on this very blog..

Re: How to sync your iTunes library to your Android device

robertmarkbram — Mon, 05 May 2014 04:27:44 -0000

As someone already pointed out, Google Play does not sync your iTunes library - it will copy your entire library into the cloud, forcing you to download it yet again to your device. It's a terrible solution if you don't have tonnes of bandwidth to spare (cellular bandwidth in particular) and despise all that duplication.

And DoubleTwist is USELESS if you want to sync that other half of your audio library - podcasts. DoubleTwist simply ignores podcasts and they have stated that they will not fix this situation. :(

I am currently using iSyncr. It syncs over wifi or USB, it syncs using your iTunes playlists and it syncs music and podcasts equally.

Note that both DoubleTwist and iSyncr cost around $5AU.

Re: Rob on Programming: Event Handling with the jQuery Autocomplete Combobox

robertmarkbram — Tue, 04 Mar 2014 08:24:25 -0000

Well, I see the problem, but to be honest I don't see how it can be fixed within the design of the component as it stands..

When you set minLength to any value other than 0, you are saying "the autocomplete feature can only kick in after the user has entered x characters". In a typing only component, this is fine.

But with this autocomplete widget, you also need to look at what happens when the user clicks on that button. This is what happens:

input.autocomplete( "search", "" );

The Javascript invokes the autocomplete function, telling it to search with an empty string. If you have set minLength to 3, this will fail because empty string has 0 characters, but you have said "the autocomplete feature can only kick in after the user has entered 3 characters".

I don't know how you would fix that.

Re: Tip: The Google Keyboard For Android Supports Text Expansion, Here's How To Use It

robertmarkbram — Sun, 20 Oct 2013 20:54:05 -0000

How about things like expanding timestamps etc? iOS has the amazing TextExpander that allows for this. The disadvantage is that it only works with apps that have in-build support for TextExpander. Luckily there are a few. I am getting an Android phone soon.. I want this ability! :)
