Cells, Excel ranges

Alternatively, you can import/export data between Access and Excel by Copy and Paste operations, provided that matching records/fields (Access) and range of cells (Excel) are selected in the exchange. 

Excel Tip. To use the the Format Painter button to "paint" a format on a series of non-adjacent cells or ranges, select the cell with the desired format, then double-click on the Format Painter button. This will keep the button in the "pressed" position, allowing you to click on several cells or ranges to paste the format When you re done, click once on the button to return it to the "unpressed" state. 

To assign a name to a cell reference, first select the cell or range. Then choose Define... from the Name submenu to display the Define Name dialog box (Figure 3-2). Excel will propose a name in the Name box, using text from the cell immediately above or to the left of the selected cell. The absolute reference of the selected cell will appear in the Refers To box. Edit the name if desired, then press OK. 

You can also define a name by using the Name box (the cell reference area in the formula bar). Simply select the cell or range on the sheet (the range will be displayed in the Name box), click the cursor in the Name box (the typing area will be highlighted), type the name, then press ENTER. (Excel does not propose a name based on a text label above or to the left of the selected range, as it does when you use Define Name or Create Names you have to type in the name yourself.)... 

Earlier in this chapter it was recommended that you enter cell or range references in formulas by selecting, not by typing. If a name has been assigned to a cell or range. Excel will enter the name in the formula, rather than the reference, when you click on the cell or range. 

To calculate the 95% confidence limits using Excel, simply type into a blank cell =STDEV(range) TINV(0.05, n-1)/SQRT(n), where range is the range of cells containing the n data. Typing =TINV(0.05, n—1) gives the f-value alone. 

Historical Inhalation Agents. Diethyl ether produces excellent surgical anesthesia, but it is flammable (see Ethers). Chloroform is a nonflammable, sweet smelling, colorless Hquid which provides analgesia at nonanesthetic doses and can provide potent anesthesia at 1% (see Chlorocarbons AND CHLOROHYDROCARBONs). However, a metabohte causes hepatic cell necrosis. Tdlene, a nonflammable colorless Hquid, has a slower onset and recovery and a higher toxicity and chemical reactivity than desirable. Cyclopropane is a colorless gas which has rapid induction (2 —3 min) and recovery characteristics and analgesia is obtained in the range of 3—5% with adequate skeletal muscle relaxation (see Hydrocarbons). The use of cyclopropane has ceased, however, because of its flammabiHty and marked predisposition to cause arrhythmias. 

Validation also applies to software. In a simple example, you could create an Excel spreadsheet template with fixed formulae to calculate the mean and standard deviation of a range of data. To validate this template you would enter a set of sample data and verify the template-calculated results against the manually calculated results. In order to be confident that the template could be used for further data sets you would password-protect the cell formulae and verify that they cannot be altered without it. 

Output Outputs Results to Excel Cells Range (" B" CStr (IntPrint +1) ). Select ActiveCell.FormulaRlCl= z Range (" C" CStr (IntPrint + 1) ). Select ActiveCell.FormulaRlCl = WSty Range (" D" CStr (IntPrint + 1) ). Select... 

Recently, room temperature ionic liquids (RT-ILs) have attracted much attention for their excellent properties, e.g., wide temperature range of liquid phase, ultra-low vapor pressure, chemical stability, potential as green solvents, and high heat capacities [64,65]. These properties make them good candidates for the use in many fields, such as thermal storage [66], electrochemical applications, homogeneous catalysis [67], dye sensitized solar cells [68], and lubricants [69,70]. 

Instructions) and (Import Data from Excel) allow a portion of an Excel spreadsheet to be copied into a SMAC-data file the necessary steps are as follows (1) open the Excel file, mark the range to be copied and press [Copy] (2) open DATA and create a new or open an existing data file (3) select (Input Data) (Import Data from Excel) and position the cursor on an appropriate cell, e.g. cell (1,1). The imported data replaces any data that was in that cell range. If the imported cell range needs more columns or rows than are presently available, the data array is correspondingly increased in size. Headers and dimensions can be added later. 

Reflectance measurements involve measurements of the intensity of light reflected from a flat specular surface of an electrode in a spectroelectrochemical cell. The incident light is polarized either parallel (p) or perpendicular s) to the plane of incidence, as shown in Fig. 27.24. A detector monitors the intensity of the reflected beam. The light is monochromatic, but the spectrometers usually can be tuned over large wavelength ranges. There are excellent reviews of reflectance by McIntyre (1973) and Plieth et al. (1992). 

Although the improved extraction kinetics also increase the concentration of coextractives in the final extract, some degree of selectivity can be achieved by careful selection of the solvent or solvents used. Matrix co-extractives may be removed, or at least partially removed, by placing a suitable sorbent, such as alumina, at the exit of the extraction cell to remove lipid co-extractives. Excellent recoveries of both polar and nonpolar pesticides from a wide range of foodstuffs have been reported. Specific applications include organophosphorus and A-methylcarbamate pesticides. 

F4FlAsH-P12 61 at 544 nm expanded the spectral range of the biarsenical dyes. Furthermore, the fluorescence lifetime increased to a value of 5.2 ns. Owing to the results of this study, the authors suggested that the two compounds (57 and 58) would form an excellent FRET pair with a large critical distance. In addition, they envisage that the observed characteristics should facilitate improved structural and dynamic studies of proteins in living cells.
