I'm using LotusScript to clean and export values from a form to a csv file. In the form there are multiple date fields with names like enddate_1, enddate_2, enddate_3, etc.
These date fields are Data Type: Text when empty, but Data Type: Time/Date when filled.
To get the values as string in the csv without errors, I did the following (working):
If Isdate(doc.enddate_1) Then
enddate_1 = Format(doc.enddate_1,"dd-mm-yyyy")
Else
enddate_1 = doc.enddate_1(0)
End If
But to do such a code block for each date field didnt feel right.
Tried the following, but that isnt working.
For i% = 1 To 9
If Isdate(doc.enddate_i%) Then
enddate_i% = Format(doc.enddate_i%,"dd-mm-yyyy")
Else
enddate_i% = doc.enddate_i%(0)
End If
Next
Any suggestions how to iterate numbered fields with a for loop or otherwise?
To iterate numbered fields with a for loop or otherwise?
valueArray = notesDocument.GetItemValue( itemName$ )
however do you know that there is a possibility to export documents in CSV format using Notes Menu?
File\Exort
Also there is a formula:
#Command([FileExport]; "Comma Separated Value"; "c:\document.csv")
Combined solution of Dmytro, clarification of Richard Schwartz with my block of code to a working solution. Tried it as an edit on solution of Dmytro, but was rejected.
My problem was not only to iterate the numbered fields, but also store the values in an iterative way to easily retrieve them later. This I found out today trying to implement the solution of Dmytro combined with the clarification of Richard Schwartz. Used a List to solve it completely.
The working solution for me now is:
Dim enddate$ List
For i% = 1 To 9
itemName$ = "enddate_" + CStr(i%)
If Isdate(doc.GetItemValue(itemName$)) Then
enddate$(i%) = Format(doc.GetItemValue(itemName$),"dd-mm-yyyy")
Else
enddate$(i%) = doc.GetItemValue(itemName$)(0)
End If

I'm completely new on Office Script (with only old experience on Python and C++) and I'm trying to run a rather "simple" Office Script on excel from power automate. The goal is to fill specific cells (always the same, their position shouldn't change) on the excel file.
The power Automate part is working, the problem is managing to use the information sent to Excel, in excel.
The script take three variables from Power automate (all three strings) and should fill specific cells based on these. CMQ_Name: string to use as is.
Version: string to use as is.
PT_Name: String with names separated by a ";". The goal is to split it in as much string as needed (I'm stocking them in an Array) and write each name in cells on top of each other, always starting on the same position (cell A2).
I'm able to use CMQ_Names & Version and put them in the cell they're supposed to go in, I've already make it works.
However, I cannot make the last part (in bold above, part 2 in the code below) work.
Learning on this has been pretty frustrating as some elements seems to sometime works and sometimes not. Newbie me is probably having syntax issues more than anyting...
function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook,
CMQ_Name: string,
Version: string,
PT_Name: string )
{
// create reference for each sheet in the excel document
let NAMES = workbook.getWorksheet("CMQ_NAMES");
let TERMS = workbook.getWorksheet("CMQ_TERMS");
//------Part 1: Update entries in sheet CMQ_NAMES
NAMES.getRange("A2").setValues(CMQ_Name);
NAMES.getRange("D2").setValues(Version);
//Update entries in sheet CMQ_TERMS
TERMS.getRange("A2").setValues(CMQ_Name);
//-------Part 2: work with PT_Name
//Split PT_Name
let ARRAY1: string[] = PT_Name.split(";");
let CELL: string;
let B: string = "B"
for (var i = 0; i < ARRAY1.length; i++) {
CELL = B.concat(i.toString());
NAMES.getRange(CELL).setValues(ARRAY1[i]);
}
}
I have several problems:
Some parts (basically anything with red are detected as a problem and I have no idea why. Some research indicated it could be false positive, other not. It's not the biggest problem either as it seems the code sometimes works despite these warnings.
Argument of type 'string' is not assignable to parameter of type '(string | number | boolean)[ ][ ]'.
I couldn't find a way to use a variable as address to select a specific cell to write in, which is preventing the for loop at the end from working. I've been bashing my head against this for a week now without solving it.
Could you kindly take a look?
Thank you!!
I tried several workarounds and other syntaxes without much success. Writing the first two strings in cells work, working with the third string doesn't.
EDIT: Thanks to the below comment, I managed to make it work:
function main(
workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook,
CMQ_Name: string,
Version: string,
PT_Name: string )
{
// create reference for each table
let NAMES = workbook.getWorksheet("CMQ_NAMES");
let TERMS = workbook.getWorksheet("CMQ_TERMS");
//------Part 0: clear previous info
TERMS.getRange("B2:B200").clear()
//------Part 1: Update entries in sheet CMQ_NAMES
NAMES.getRange("A2").setValue(CMQ_Name);
NAMES.getRange("D2").setValue(Version);
//Update entries in sheet CMQ_TERMS
TERMS.getRange("A2").setValue(CMQ_Name);
//-------Part 2: work with PT_Name
//Split PT_Name
let ARRAY1: string[] = PT_Name.split(";");
let CELL: string;
let B: string = "B"
for (var i = 2; i < ARRAY1.length + 2; i++) {
CELL = B.concat(i.toString());
//console.log(CELL); //debugging
TERMS.getRange(CELL).setValue(ARRAY1[i - 2]);
}
}
You're using setValues() (plural) which accepts a 2 dimensional array of values that contains the data for the given rows and columns.
You need to look at using setValue() instead as that takes a single argument of type any.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/api/office-scripts/excelscript/excelscript.range?view=office-scripts#excelscript-excelscript-range-setvalue-member(1)
As for using a variable to retrieve a single cell (or set of cells for that matter), you really just need to use the getRange() method to do that, this is a basic example ...
function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook) {
let cellAddress: string = "A4";
let range: ExcelScript.Range = workbook.getWorksheet("Data").getRange(cellAddress);
console.log(range.getAddress());
}
If you want to specify multiple ranges, just change cellAddress to something like this ... A4:C10
That method also accepts named ranges.
I have the following block of code that iterates through the fields of each table and adds the fields of the current table respectively in order to create a number of tableboxes.
'iterate through every table
For i=1 To arrTCount
'the arrFF array holds the names of the fields of each table
arrFF = Split(arrFields(i), ", ")
arrFFCount = UBound(arrFF)
'create a tablebox
Set TB = ActiveDocument.Sheets("Main").CreateTableBox
'iterate through the fields of the array
For j=0 to (arrFFCount - 1)
'add the field to the tablebox
TB.AddField arrFF(j)
'Msgbox(arrFF(j))
Next
Set tboxprop = TB.GetProperties
tboxprop.Layout.Frame.ObjectId = "TB" + CStr(i)
TB.SetProperties tboxprop
Next
The above code creates the tableboxes, but with one field less every time (the last one is missing). If I change the For loop from For j=0 To (arrFFCount - 1) to For j=0 To (arrFFCount) it creates empty tableboxes and seems to execute forever. Regarding this change, I tested the field names with the Msgbox(arrFF(j)) command and it shows me the correct field names as I want them to be in the tableboxes in the UI of QlikView.
Does anybody have an idea of what seems to be the problem here? Can I do this in a different way?
To clarify the situation here and what I have tested so far, I have 11 tables to make tableboxes of and I have tried with just one of them or some of them. The result I am seeing with the code is on the left and what I am expecting to see is on the right of the following image. Please note that the number of fields vary for each table and the image has just one of them as an example.
I imported my dataset with SFrame:
products = graphlab.SFrame('amazon_baby.gl')
products['word_count'] = graphlab.text_analytics.count_words(products['review'])
I would like to do sentiment analysis on a set of words shown below:
selected_words = ['awesome', 'great', 'fantastic', 'amazing', 'love', 'horrible', 'bad', 'terrible', 'awful', 'wow', 'hate']
Then I would like to create a new column for each of the selected words in the products matrix and the entry is the number of times such word occurs, so I created a function for the word "awesome":
def awesome_count(word_count):
if 'awesome' in product:
return product['awesome']
else:
return 0;
products['awesome'] = products['word_count'].apply(awesome_count)
so far so good, but I need to manually create other functions for each of the selected words in this way, e.g., great_count, etc. How to avoid this manual effort and write cleaner code?
I think the SFrame.unpack command should do the trick. In fact, the limit parameter will accept your list of selected words and keep only these results, so that part is greatly simplified.
I don't know precisely what's in your reviews data, so I made a toy example:
# Create the data and convert to bag-of-words.
import graphlab
products = graphlab.SFrame({'review':['this book is awesome',
'I hate this book']})
products['word_count'] = \
graphlab.text_analytics.count_words(products['review'])
# Unpack the bag-of-words into separate columns.
selected_words = ['awesome', 'hate']
products2 = products.unpack('word_count', limit=selected_words)
# Fill in zeros for the missing values.
for word in selected_words:
col_name = 'word_count.{}'.format(word)
products2[col_name] = products2[col_name].fillna(value=0)
I also can't help but point out that GraphLab Create does have its own sentiment analysis toolkit, which could be worth checking out.
I actually find out an easier way do do this:
def wordCount_select(wc,selectedWord):
if selectedWord in wc:
return wc[selectedWord]
else:
return 0
for word in selected_words:
products[word] = products['word_count'].apply(lambda wc: wordCount_select(wc, word))
NOTE:, I don't need help with the generic concept of inserting data to a database, just sorting through the contents of an array depending on the content of the "line" and how to determine which "items" in the array correspond to a field in the database
I have a glob of data posted to me by a desktop application that I need to sort through. My old solution worked, but was far less than elegant (INSERT each line of glob into database, then query for, reINSERT, and delete old).
How can I get the following chunk of information (POSTED to me as "f_data") into an array and insert the data into a database?
f_data Contents:
Open~notepad.exe~7/14/2011 2:28:46 PM~COMPUTER01
Open~mspaint.exe~7/14/2011 2:28:55 PM~COMPUTER01
Close~notepad.exe~7/14/2011 2:30:06 PM~COMPUTER01
Close~mspaint.exe~7/14/2011 2:30:06 PM~COMPUTER01
Session~7/14/2011~336~COMPUTER01
Startup~7/18/2011 11:23:12 AM~COMPUTER01
Please keep in mind that I have never used arrays before. 15 years of ASP and I've never had to use an array. How I've been so lucky I don't know, but I think that it may be required for this solution. Here is my current code to put "f_data" into an array:
Example of what I want to do:
var_logdata = request.form("f_data")
arr_logdata = Split(var_logdata,"~")
for var_arrayitem = 0 to ubound(arr_logdata)
'Do some stuff here depending on the log type
'If type is "Open"
'insert to tb_applicationlog
'Elseif type is "Close"
'insert to tb_applicationlog
'Elseif type is "Session"
'insert to tb_sessions
'End if
next
What I don't know how to do is to determine what "type" of log entry the item in the array is. If you look at the code above, I need to insert to different tables in the database depending on the "type" of log entry. For example, an "Open" or "Close" entry goes into the tb_applicationlog table. Once I determine what type the log entry is, how do I align the items in the array "row" to fields in the database?
Thanks very much in advance,
Beems
I think it would be better to split 'logdata' using another character first, then spilt the fields in the array created by 'logdata' using '~', as below (code not tested) -
var_logdata = request.form("f_data")
arr_logdata = Split(var_logdata,vbCrLf)
'split request.form("f_data") using newline so we have an array containing each line
for var_arrayitem = 0 to ubound(arr_logdata)
'now we can split each line by "~"
arr_linelogdata = Split(arr_logdata(var_arrayitem),"~")
'now arr_linelogdata(0) is log type, arr_linelogdata(1) is next field etc
'linetype = arr_linelogdata(0) etc
'use variables derived from array to do what you need to
next
[The description is a bit fudged to obfuscate my real work for confidentiality reasons]
I'm working on a QTP test for a web page where there are multiple HTML tables of items. Items that are available have a clickable item#, while those that aren't active have an item# as plain text.
So if I have a set of ChildObjects like this:
//This is the set of table rows that contain item numbers, active or not.
objItemRows = Browser("browserX").Page("pageY").ChildObjects("class:=ItemRow")
What is the simplest way in QTP land to select only the clickable link-ized item #s?
UPDATE: The point here isn't to select the rows themselves, it's to select only the rows that have items in them (as opposed to header/footer rows in each table). If I understand this correctly, I could then use objItemRows.Count to count how many items (available and unavailable) there are. Could I then use something like
desItemLink = Description.Create
desItemLink("micclass").value = "Link"
objItemLinks = objItemRows.ChildObjects(desItemLink)
To get the links within only the item rows?
Hope that clarifies things, and thanks for the help.
I think I have this figured out.
Set desItemLink = description.create
desItemLink("micclass").value = "Link"
desItemLink("text").RegularExpression = True
//True, Regex isn't really required in this example, but I just wanted to show it could be used this way
//This next part depends on the format of the item numbers, in my case, it's [0-9]0000[0-9]00[0-9]
For x = 0 to 9
For y = 0 to 9
For z = 0 to 9
strItemLink = x & "0000" & y & "00" & z
desItemLink("text").value = strItemLink
Set objItemLink = Browser("browser").Page("page").Link(desItemLink)
If objItemLink.Exist(0) Then
//Do stuff
End If
Next
Next
Next
Thanks for your help anyways, but the code above will iterate through links with names in a given incrementing format.
