Well the AI in the fishes is sometimes more intellegent than the people visiting the Q&A. At least the fish try to stay away from the shark....
I think the net has enough pussy cats on it!

Well, now I need to port it to Java or Objective C. Windows is the only tablet I am not running at home for development. Also, I have two cats who use my iPad more than I do.
|
|
|
|
|
I wonder, is there anything left of the iPad after the cats have gone nuts on it?

Cat claws are made of the same stuff as our nails, so not a single scratch yet. The real damage is to the carpet under the tablet when they try to figure out where the stuff went after it goes off one side or another. We have had them flip it over a few times trying to get underneath it.
We currently have a game that has a few modes. A mouse that scurries and squeaks when they bop it, a spider which makes "insect" noises when it moves, a fish that makes swimming noises and splashes when bopped. Plus it has a painting game that is the same as the mouse, but leaves colored paw prints wherever they hit it and smears when they drag their paw. Then it allows you to save the image. I haven't gone that far yet.

I didnt think thouse programs existed, but was I wrong I see. As long as their games dosnt involve buying cool addons I guess its ok

Fortunately for me, the one we have does not include in-application purchases. Although that does give me a cunning plan, I need a way to deliver virtual catnip via IAP.
We actually picked it up when we got our second cat. Turned the game on, put the tablet on the floor and they forgot about the fact that a cat they had never met before was sitting less than a foot away... and both proceeded to work on killing the mouse.
A friend of mine and his girlfriend foster cats for a rescue shelter, they use the same game to help new fosters relax and feel more comfortable. Nothing worse than a stressed cat in a new environment. Not good for their health and usually not good for yours either.

I had the one with the internet not working at home most of the days over the last two weeks. It was the DSL modem that was getting old and needed replacement.

Need help with Excel. I exported some data from SQL Server to Excel using the OpenRowSet function which includes some numeric columns (float in SQL Server). But no matter what I do, Excel treats it as Text. I tried formatting the cells to number, but no use.
If I create a Chart out of the data, the values are assumed to be 0 (or NULL) and the Chart is always empty. I checked by negating one of the values and the Chart does recognize it as a number and update itself. I can't edit each cell by hand since there are 50,000 cells to be edited. Got a solution?

Add a plus : "+Value" instead of "Value".

Several options.
First, Highlight the column or range. Right Click. Format Cells. General
If that does not work:
Go to cell to the right, type "=VALUE(Cell address). Copy to bottom of range. Copy new range. Paste Special as Values into the previous cell range.
Failing that:
Ensure the DB has the number formatted correctly, wrap the field with an explicit conversion function (eg =CDbl(Fields!Example_Total.Value) or some such thing).

Now that they're in Excel (as text), select all, copy and paste values into a new Excel worksheet. That usually does the trick for me since that is a very messed up result that happens surprisingly often in Excel.

Also this is the lounge.
Rule 2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.

WTE has Excel got to do with Programming?
Yeah I know there is VBA slapped on the back end, but his prob was nothing more than a moan about the SQL to Excel lack of communication.

I was once booted for asking what reporting software loungers like.
I did not report them but just gave some advice.

This is not a programming question. It is a guru question.

So it should be asked in the Guru forum - This is the lounge. What on Earth could give ANYBODY the idea that this is where to find gurus of ANY sort?

Look straight into my eyes, breathe slowly, look into my eyes, listen to my voice, take a profound breathe, close you eyes while you concentrate on my voice, you feel sleepy, ...
Now, you may call me guru.
