Thank you RobPratt. It looks like we can move all students (12) from room HB106 and put them on AB102 and make room HB106 fully available. Also, I want the Room_Status flagged as AVAILABLE only when NEW_ROOM_LOAD=0. Would you please help a bit more. ... View more

Mank thanks Ksharp. Would it be possible for you to populate the column NEW_ROOM_LOAD in the Final_want file so that I know how they were redistributed? I also wanted to ensure that room W102's number went down from 31 to 30. Thanks. ... View more

Thanks Ballardw. Your solution works for me, but I have a date field and _numeric_ function is converting the date field to numeric as well. Any solution to that?   Thanks. ... View more

Hi all, I have lat 4 year tuition fee laid out as Fee_YR_01-Fee_YR_04 and their corresponding increased rate Increase_YR_01-Increase_YR_04. I want 4 new rows which will calculate the tuition fee for the next 4 years based on their previous year tuitions and corresponding increase. But instead of calculating all 4 rows, I want the calculated output of the first row to be copied below all the way to the end. I was able to do the calculation on the first row, but don't know how to copy downward. Can anyone help please.
