I am working for a Lab. We mainly use google sheets to keep basic data. Whenever a change is made from a computer update is shown on every other computer too. We also use Filemaker Pro on some computers. I want the Structure and form of Filemaker Pro and autosyncing and formulas of googlesheets The one thing i can't seem to figure out on google sheets is how to change a cell's value from another cell. Google App script allows me to do this but i am wondering if there is another way. I am ok with learning another language and platform (SQL) as long as they have what i need. Thank you very much.

If you are on FileMaker 16 or later you can use the Google Sheets REST API with the built in JSON functions. You can use older versions if you parse the JSON yourself or use a plugin or custom functions.
You use the Insert from URL script step to perform a GET/PUT request.
Here is the API:
Google Sheets API v4

I'm very eager to know how to automate agile rally without accessibg it from web site. Do we have any table or data bases for rally? Like Quality center (QC) . Can I automate it through VBA ? Do we have any connection string or libraries to make the automation feasible?
There's a great Web Services API on top of Agile Central for doing these sorts of things, but not direct DB access. There are toolkits for accessing them in a bunch of different languages- java, .net, node, etc.
https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/doc/webservice/
There is also an Excel Add-In which you could then manipulate with VBA if that's more of your thing...
Yep there's loads of info out there, what is it you need to do.. I do most of my updating via the command line there are a few aps worth looking into with npm just run a search on rally. If you need integration with git or Jenkins for example take a look at the Agile central connectors.. The QC con is here.. Let us know how you get on..

Given:
A list-based application with an advanced user-system based on two applications:
Main-Tool
Displays all Entrys with possible filters
Create entrys
Delete entrys
Edit entrys
Filter entrys to only see specific ones
...you get the point
Creation-Tool
Reads specific informations out of a file and opens the same mask as the Main-Tools creation function as a separated application.
The Problem:
So I have my Creation-Tool and the Main-Tools function to create entrys as well. So each time i am changing a thing on the creation mask, i have to do it in two applications.
The Solution:
There has to be a way to call functions of my application from the outside.
The Question:
How can i get rid of the second application? The Main-Application has more informations (Logged in user for example) than the Creation-Tool, so i want to get rid of the Creation-Tool. Having a second application that calls my main application is okay.
What you want to do is to move all of your functionality into a separate library. Using inter-process communication would require both programs to be running. Whereas if you had two programs that shared the same dll, that would solve your duplicate code issue and each program can be run independently. Once you have all your functionality separated from the user interface and moved into it's own dll, then consolidating the UI of both applications into one will be much easier.

How to create an exe to run SQL commands which ask for parameters [closed]

I have a series of fairly simple SQL update commands that are used to update order owners in one of our databases. i.e.
UPDATE POHEAD
SET BYRUSR_ID = upper('J123456')
WHERE BYRUSR_ID = upper('J654321')
AND po_st IN (1, 4, 5, 6, 10,11);
COMMIT;
I want to enable our business users to make the changes, and thought that the best solution would be to create an application file that takes the parameters (olduser, newuser) and when the user clicks OK, the file opens a connection to the database (oracle) to make the updates.
While investigating I found a number of guides for creating exe files with .net but none that used SQL or asked for parameters. I haven't used .net before, so don't know where to start.
Using a PHP webform was considered but is not feasible.
Appreciate any help you can provide.
It's a rather vague question so I hope that this is what you need:
Usually, the best way to build a standalone-application which connects to SQL is via PHP. If you know a tiny bit of HTML, you can even create an HTML page in which your users can enter data and click on a button and the PHP script in the back-end will connect to the SQL-database and return the results on the next page.
Here a link for the beginning:
http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mysql_connect.asp
There are also alternatives to connecting PHP with SQL (SparkSQL, Hadoop, ...) but I think that this is the simplest way of creating such an app.

I need to use a server for portions of my app. Since I'm using Express for this what is the benefit for using Cloud Code for aspects of my app that could be hosted on the server or in Parse Cloud Code?
You can use both the server and cloud code for custom functions but each have there own purpose.
Cloud Code (the main.js file) is really more so for having custom API endpoints that have logic when they are called. Like changing one field for table changes another field.
The server part (all of the other files) is really for just hosing a website that uses express stuff and renders all your web pages using "ejs" or "jade".
I'm a bit new to parse but I hope this answers your question.
Using Cloud Code for our mobile app is very useful now days.
there are following things that must know about Cloud Code
1.If your app is large then the code can be save on cloud so that our app take less time to load

I have a Mac App that uses the NSKeyedArchiver to save persistent data and it all works fine, but thinking ahead ideally I would like to be able to create a windows version. The current App is all in objective-c using cocoa as I did not think of portability when I first started writing it. I would be happy to make a windows version from scratch but obviously the two need to share data. I am a complete beginner when it come to cross-platform apps. What should I do?
Thanks in advance.
You either need to find (or write) code/a library to read NSKeyedArchiver plists on Windows, or you need to release an update to your Mac app that converts the keyed archives to something more generic, like a JSON- or XML-based format.
