Bellowing is example fuction in Microsoft Word 2016. Google Docs have function or any extension support select value from range?
I only few line need select from drop down. So i don't want using Google Sheet, difficult convert linked table of content, different page header footer or other to sheet.
I get reponse from Google Docs Editors Community .
Bellowing is the response.
That capability currently isn't available in Docs. To help influence future feature changes or additions in Docs, I encourage you to provide feedback about this directly to the Docs team by following these steps:
Open a document.
Click Help > Report a problem.
Enter your feedback.
Although the product team is unable to respond to individual users directly, they review this feedback regularly and use it to help improve the product over time. The more users who have this request, the more likely it is the team will make a change.
So, conclusion. Google doesn't support yet.

I need to allow the users of Google Documents write only in the rows, that are assigned to them. Is there any way to prevent writing to lines that do not belong to the user?
Issue:
Unlike Sheets, there's no way to protect specific parts of Google Docs.
Feature request:
If you are interested in this, I'd suggest you to request this feature by clicking Help > Help Docs improve on the Docs editor.
I am building an integration for a client with the HelloWorks API. This is a service that allows you to create user-fillable PDF forms.
It appears that their product supports formatted/template strings/formula fields as outputs to the PDF files, as when
I create a Date field, it creates an output field with the following data:
#{format(:date, #field_XXXXX, "{0M}/{0D}/{YYYY}")}
However, I cannot find any kind of documentation as to what is the format of this template string/formula field.
In case anyone is still looking for an answer for this, this is what HelloWorks support team has to say.
As for documentation for the format, we do not have any documentation for that at this time and the ability to make those edits are going to be depreciated in the future as our product team wants to bring those capabilities to the portal without custom edits.
I would like to create a spreadsheet that I can refresh and pull in each weeks English premier League fixtures, each week I would like to refresh this and see the weeks future fixtures. I have tried to use the import function from Data/From Web and selected the box with the table of fixtures however no data gets pulled into the spreadsheet.
The website I am using is - "http://data.7m.com.cn/matches_data/92/en/index.shtml"
I am open to understand a better way of doing this import and also if there is a better website to use I am also happy to change. I have chosen this one as it seems to have the most simplified listing of the fixtures.
I have also tried this website - https://www.premierleague.com/fixtures
When the import completes it actually skips all the fixtures and returns all the other information.
Should i be looking to some of the HTML elements within the script of the web page to extract the data?
For example on the following site - https://www.premierleague.com/fixtures I am looking for a file received by the website that updates the fixtures each week (after some direction from Google) I hit the F12 command and look within the "Network" tab however I cant understand how the website, this or the others quoted create the weekly fixtures.
Any suggestions on how to pull this into Excel or another tool would be fantastic.
Welcome to [so]! it sounds like you haven't done as much research as you could have. Your first link, in the top corner has links to "Free Feed" which take you to customizable widgets and from there is a link to a customizable live template.The first page also has a link to "Data" , I'm not sure what that consists of or whether it will help (since I'm not much of a sports fan on my continent, and even less on yours!
As for importing into Excel, I didn't have an issue with the table I could see, but once again I'm not clear on what data you're trying to get and what you want to do with it.
On the ribbon's Data tab click From Web.
Enter the first URL from your question and hit Enter
When the Navigator window loads, click "Table 1" and then click Load.
Below is what Excel then automatically loaded as a table:
If instead of clicking Load, you were to click Edit then you are brought into the Power Query Editor, where you can customizable tons of stuff. The one I was interested in was Use First Row on Headers. After choosing that, and clicking Close & Load, and 30 seconds of formatting later I had:
With Power Query you can choose, remove, split, or combine columns from this or other tables. It's fairly advanced but you should be able to find a good Power Query tutorial online, to see examples of what you can do, to learn about other ways you can customize the import and/or analysis of the data.
Edit:
More Information:
Here are the instructions for all versions:

Is it possible for me to create a list of google search results from a specific query and export it into excel? For example, I'd like to google orthodontists in Florida and be able to export the business name, phone number and address to an excel spreadsheet. I've done a lot of searching but I can't find any solutions. I'm looking for someone to point me in the right direction. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
An API is an Application Programming Interface and it's a way for your software to interact with the software on a server. Google has an API called the "Custom Search Engine" which you can use for 100 free queries per day. Other search engines may have more generous free APIs. With a search API you can write a code to download text that contain all the relevant data. You can read more about search engine APIs here.
Another way to collect data from google is to scrape their page. This means that you use a code to download the HTML, and from that HTML you collect the relevant pieces (wikipedia link). With a programming language like python, many people use the Beautiful Soup library for scraping. With code then you can take the relevant parts of the HTML and put it into a format like CSV that is readable by Excel. With python there are ways to write to Excel, directly, too (link).
Finally, here is a link from 2007 that says with Google Spreadsheets you can import HTML.
Update: here is the MS Excel version.
The following web app https://www.resultstoexcel.com/ allows you to download Google search results to a CSV file, a Microsoft Excel readable format, for free.
If you have any problem viewing the downloaded results correctly in MS Excel, please read the FAQs section where you will find how to open the file using the correct column separators.
Where are the results coming from?
A Google search on the topic retrieves many companies that offer online access to Google Search Results through an Application Programming Interface (API). This web app uses SERPSBOT API.
I have a link in one column and, based on it, I want
Number of Google searches in column 2
Page rank of first result in column 3
I know this can be done, as I saw a friend pulling google search result right in Excel. If anyone knows, please share how I could do that.
If I correctly interpret your question, one of the tasks you had to do is
How do I get programmatically the Google page rank for a list of URLs?
You can find the code to do this in this CodeProject article:
Request Google´s Pagerank programmatically
Regarding the Excel part: it depends which programming framework or platforms you could use. You could use to create a .NET extension for Excel using the Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Office.
From Excel there is Data->Get External Data->New Web Query. Is this what you want?
You have two options, both of which are unfortunately poorly documented.
If you are comfortable in C/C++, you can write a special DLL called an "XLL" that you can call during Excel runtime. There is some sparse documentation available. Note that this stuff isn't very fun to use.
If you prefer .NET, there is a binding for the entire Office suite outlined here that allows you to write COM-based methods that you can call from Office. It is intended for automation, but you can write any managed code you want and have Excel call into it.
There is also what Remou just suggested; I don't actually own a copy of Excel to test that out, but it may be the easiest option.
By link i meant keywords and not URL. I want to put a keyword in one cell and pull number of searches and page rank in adjacent cells.
I tried doing the same with web query in excel but i can only reach till the number of searches. that too not in the proper cell (trying to figure out). But i have no clue about how to get the pageranks.
I am not that tech savvy to code a binder or plugin for myself. Although i am checking the link by splattne. Please focus more light on it. Is it gonna be time consuming if i try to make this one..?

There are some nice plugins for this (in various languages) on GitHub:

I have a PR checker functions in my Excel plugin "SeoTools".
