Row State Functions
Date Difference(01Jan2010:00:00:00, 01Jan2010:09:22:57, "Hour", "actual");
The following formula returns 1, the number of times a new hour started between the times:
Date Difference(31Dec2010:23:59:59, 01Jan2011:00:59:59, "Hour", "start");
Row State Functions
There are six characteristics that rows in a data table can have: selected, hidden, excluded, labeled, colored,
and marked. If you give rows one or more of these characteristics and then create row state data table
columns, you can then create a formula that computes and saves row state conditions. (See “Assign Column
Properties” on page 151 in the “Set Column Properties” chapter, and “Row State Columns” on page 149 in
the “Set Column Properties” chapter.)This formula processes row state data just as it would process
character and numeric data.
See the Scripting Guide for details about syntax.
Note: A row can be assigned any combination of row states; a row state column can have multiple row
states as a value.
Table B.2 describes the type of argument each Row State function requires and what each returns.
Table B.2 Row State Functions
Function Name Argument Type Required What the Function Returns (Your Column
Data Type Should be This Type)
Row State none row state of current row
As Row State numeric all row states of current row
Combine States multiple row state arguments multiple row state assignments
Excluded State positive integer or zero row state-excluded or not excluded
Hidden State positive integer or zero row state-hidden or not hidden
Labeled State positive integer or zero row state-labeled or not labeled
Color State
integer or color name or {red,
green, blue}
row state color
Marker State integer or character row state marker
Selected State positive integer or zero row state-selected or not selected
Hue State integer row state hue
Shade State integer 1-5 row state intensity
Excluded Row State() or row state column numeric 0 (not excluded) or 1 (excluded)
