Formatting Collums, for Appending purpose

Hello everybody,
I am having difficulty in appending multiple sheets importing from excel. Why i tried to join these sheet together, the system notify me about the field format is different. Is there a way or any tips to mass formatting multiples sheets at one? Since having 50+ sheets to append might be time consuming.
Thank you very much,
Best regards,
Trung Nguyen

Limitation in Joining Databases?

Hello,
 
I had joined a primary database to a secondary database using "Records with no secondary match" option where both databases have a common key.
 
After looking through the data in the joined database, I realised that some of these unmatched data to secondary database were found in secondary database.
 
So I re-joined the joined database to the same secondary database using "Records with no secondary match" option. And the output database had fewer records compared to the first join.

Ordinary Least Squares - IDEA

Hello everyone,
I have recently discovered some of the fantastic features and capabilities of this great software - IDEA. Now by my curiosity in studying the capabilities of the software I intend to apply to the database some statisticals. So what I intend to do now is: use the IDEA capabilities to estimate some coefficients, and for that I want to use (for now) the Ordinary Least Squares.
 
The goal will be:
Imagine that I have an equation like that:
Y = X * B + E
and: Y  -> only one column

IDEA SERVER

Hello everyone from the forum!
I've been working with IDEA for some months already. Since then, I started to face some performace problems  that sometimes delay the deliveries in my work.
So I noticed that the CaseWear provides an alternative version of IDEA as a server that I do not know much about.
