Is there a way to sort a column of hebrew characters strings alphabetically in Excel (version 2013 here)? I have tried on my side with a list of very simple words, and it does not work (it does not produce any change in the order)
EDIT:
My client managed to sort the words on his side and suggested to use the context menu (below), which is not available on my side. I have a context button, which I added to the bar, but it did not sort out any helpful result.
When I pasted in the sorted worksheet, some layout in the whole document got messed up: for example now in some cells I see (Right name (a while the cell value is `Right name (a)'
I would say that there should be a way to sort left to right and right to left cell properties but I still haven't figured it out...
Step one
Add Hebrew support, even if you don't have an Hebrew keyboard and don't plan to use one:
[If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, before you can use any of the right-to-left features in Microsoft Office, or even correctly display right-to-left scripts, you must Add an input language and enable the keyboard layout for the right-to-left language.][1]
Step two
Add "context" to your ribbon bar (Excel Options -> Customize Ribbon). Without language support (step one), context will not work.

There is something I want to do; but i don't know if it is possible.
I want to know if I can do what I want to do with EmEditor or something else.
You can find an example of what I want below.
Example Picture:
• The data on the left does not have the full name.
• The data on the right are those with the full name.
I present a small video to express what I want clearly.
Please watch the video first and then see the sample files where you can try how to do what I want.
Sample Video
Sample Files
The file on the right contains much more data than the file on the left.
That's why the first thing that comes to mind is; so sorting is useless.
For example, the data in the 1st row of the data on the left; corresponds to row 2 of the data on the right.
So no one has the same row.
That's why sorting doesn't work; and I need to search the left side data one by one inside the right side data and find the full name.
FOR INSTANCE:
On the left: 10-infographic-solutions-part-1
On the right: 10-infographic-solutions-part-1-D5DADA
Instead of searching all of them one by one, I want to automatically find the left-hand data among the right-hand data.
I thought this might be possible with EmEditor; but I don't know how.
If this is possible I would like to know how.
Also, there is one more thing I want to know.
I have something to add to the end of each line; but I can't put a bulk cursor at the end of all of them.
How can I do this with EmEditor?
I hope I was able to express clearly what I wanted.
If there is anything that confuses you, please let me know.
You can use Advanced Filter to find multiple strings combined with Logical Disjunction (OR). To do this:
Open Missing Data.txt with EmEditor, select all (Ctrl+A), and copy all the text to the Clipboard (Ctrl+C).
Open Full Data.txt, and click the Advanced Filter button on the Filter toolbar.
Click in the list box of the Advanced Filter dialog box, and press Ctrl+V to paste the Clipboard contents to the list box.
While all the items in the list box are selected, make sure the Match Case, (None), and Logical Disjunction (OR) options are selected, but no other options are selected.
Click the Filter button.
You didn't write what you want to do after searches, but if you want to remove all the matched lines from Full Data.txt:
Click the Abort button if you are already filtering. Click Bookmark button, and Close to dismiss the dialog box.
Right-click on the left edge of the editor (or select Edit menu - Bookmarks), and select Delete Bookmarked Lines.
As for selecting the end of each line, you can drag Mouse while pressing Alt to make a zero-width vertical selection at right (or press Alt+E, E to make a vertical selection, and press End). See Multiple Selection Editing for more information.
I'm asking on behalf of a coworker for this question.
She is using Visual Studio 2012/SQL Server 2012.
In EXCEL how you can sort easily from A-Z, Z-A and stuff of the sort in real time, is there a way to be able to do that in SSRS? Say a user drills from main view into detail view...is there a way with the info they can sort/mess around with it prior to exporting to excel?
Yes there is.. Click on the header line for the column that you want to sort.. right click - Text Box Properties - Interactive Sorting then choose the Enable Interactive Sorting on this text box and then choose which field you want to sort by... when you run the report.. you will get an arrow next to the header that you can click to sort.. you can do this on multiple columns.. and if you wanted to sort by more than one column... you sort it by clicking on column one.. hold down shift and then the next column.. done.. the arrows do not print or export.. it's visible only on interactive view.
I am experiencing the following issue in Microsoft Excel for Mac 2016. When using the From Text data import function and clicking through the first two steps (selecting "Delimited" and defining delimiter), Step 3 allows for changing the column data format. By default, column 1 is selected and I can click to select any other column that fits into the window, as shown in the screenshot below. However, it seems that it is not possible to select columns that are to the right of those visible in the window. In my example below, there are about four more columns to the right. Scrolling and arrow-keys seem to not work in the Mac version.
Is there a keyboard shortcut, or some other workaround, that I am missing?
Perform a two-finger touch (not a complete tap), more like a contact. A slider bar will appear at the bottom of the columns. Now is your chance to grab it with one-finger click. If you begin with the pointer in the bottom part of the columns, it is much easier to grab the slider as it should be under the pointer. This probably works on other such windows.
IntelliJ and Android Studio have a great "Translation Editor" where it shows you all the <string> entries of the strings.xml and you can add items and locales on the fly. It also shows which strings are not translated yet and offers a blank box to enter the translation
To use this rapidly, I would like to go from one string entry directly to the next without needing to switch to the mouse, hover around and double-click on the next item. It looks like this:
I think this is something any user would love. I was surprised when I couldn't make it happen. I can move to the next row via Enter but that row is then only focused, not selected and I can't type. I tried Enter again, Shift+Enter, F2 and many many many more keyboard combinations. Still no success
So: How can I either move to the next item directly or select a focused item in the Translation Editor?
My version is 14.1.4
To select a focused item press F2 (working in Translation Editor on Android Studio 2.2)
I upgraded a Visual Studio solution containing Crystal Report files. Since the upgrade, the reports are displaying cross hatches (also called number signs: #####) when fields are too narrow to display their values. It was not doing that before. Is there any easy solution?
I have 9 reports, and although I tested them all, and fixed the width of the fields that appeared to be too narrow, when I use different data sets, I always find new cases where the field is too narrow to display the value.
What I have found out is that most of the time, only a few pixels are missing. On the old reports, I can even see that some numbers are cut a bit on the edge, but it does not prevent to read the values. The new version of Crystal Reports replaces those values by #####.
I guess I have two solutions: Enlarge all the fields by a few pixels or reduce the font size. I am not sure though if there is a way to do this globally, or if I have to do this by hand for every field.
Is there an easy way to tell Crytsal Reports, in such field, I want to be able to display let's say 5 digits using Courrier New 10 points?
I using Visual Studio 2012, .Net 4.5 and SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio SP5. The old reports were from the time when Crystal Reports was embedded in VS.
If you can't format the fields to accommodate the largest values from the database, then you don't have many good options without moving to a non-printable-format. These two things might be useful to you:
Enable the clipping of those fields so that they no longer show the '###'. You can do this by right-clicking the number fields having this issue, selecting "Format Field", then go to the "Number" tab, then click "Customize". There should be a check box that reads "Allow Field Clipping". In my mind, this is pretty dangerous as values can appear differently than their true numerical values.
Set the fields to grow when the values are larger than their field size on the canvas. This will extend the fields down the page (I don't believe there is a way to do this horizontally) when necessary. You can access this option by right-clicking the fields, selecting "Format Field", then go to the "Common" tab and select "Can Grow". Note that this doesn't work for numeric fields so you will have to convert it to a string first.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, there is a way to extend a field horizontally, but it's slightly more difficult to pull off and will require calculating and passing the desired width via a formula. You can access this formula by right-clicking those fields, selecting "Size and Position" and clicking the formula button next to "Width".
Whenever I come across #### problem while displaying data to field, I just simply increase width of that crystal reports field
