Extracting and Appending Data in Power Query
The report I am working on includes daily transactions, each preceded by a summary box. Part of the summary box, contains data on the deposit date. My challenge is extracting this deposit date from the summary box to append as a new column in the corresponding daily transaction list below.
The challenge is compounded by the fact that the deposit date in the summary box shares a column with transaction details. The report layout is sequential; as you scroll down, you encounter new transaction dates followed by another summary box, each containing a new deposit date. This pattern repeats throughout the document.
Despite efforts, I am struggling to figure this one out on Power Query to accurately isolate and position the deposit date. If anyone has experience or insights on how to streamline this process, I would greatly appreciate anyone’s help.

How to create a pivot table to represent categorical text?
Hello,
As seen in attached file (hopefully its attached)<
I have a table of 6 products showing the awareness of each product either as “aware”, “not aware” or “blank”.
I am trying to make a pivot table as seen here
Is there a way to do this as i can only seem to do it for one category at a time rather than all at once. Thanks!

Email not showing in Outlook Inbox – but is on phone and Webmail?
Hi there… I am stumped. I am receiving email son my phone and Webmail – but my Outlook Inbox is not syncing the same. What is more weird is if I use Outlook to search for a NEW email (that is on my phone) – it actually does show up? Any help on this would be appreciated

Finding the “center” of an extended ring
I have been experimenting with the image processing toolbox’s function "imfindcircles", and it works well. However, there is one issue: I have an extended big ring in the image where I want to recognise its "center" instead of the outer end of the ring (see attached figure, where the outer end is plotted with viscircles and the center and radius found by imfindcircles).
This is also mirrored in the data itself: both the inner and outer end of the big ring have a lower intensity than its center. Is there a way to force "imfindcircles" to use the ring of maximum intensity? (Note that I have applied a thresholding to my image, otherwise the gradient at the ring ends would not be as harsh, and imfindcircles would struggle to differentiate between the ring and artifacts neighbouring the ring.)
Or is there maybe an alternative that includes a second step? After all, the circle center is properly recognised, so I can maybe vary the radius slightly? Maybe I could add up all the values of pixels that would lie on the circle, and see where that reaches its maximum. Is there an easy way to do something like that?

Employee Licence and qualifications management
I am trying to find the best way to display our trade qualifications and licences. We want to see which employee has which licence and also have triggers for reminders when the licence is up for renew.
I am considering MS Teams Planner but I think the display is a little clunky for this information. Is anyone aware of an add-on app that could be useful?

How to check if Azure SQL Managed Instances are enrolled (or not) on November 2022 Feature Wave?
Recently, we have received a few questions from customers on how they can check if all the Azure SQL Managed Instances on a subscription have been enrolled in the November 2022 Feature Wave.
Resource graph query to the rescue!
Running this query is quite easy from the Azure portal. Follow the instructions on this article to understand how to run Kusto queries against resource graph.
Use the query below.
resources
| where type =~ “microsoft.sql/virtualclusters”
| extend parsed_properties = parse_json(properties)
| extend version = tostring(parsed_properties.version)
| extend NovemberFeatureWave2022Enabled = iif([‘version’] == ‘2.0’,’Yes’,’No’)
| extend childResources = tostring(parsed_properties.childResources)
| mv-expand childResource = parse_json(childResources)
| extend subscriptionId = tostring(split(childResource, “/”)[2])
| extend resourceGroup = tostring(split(childResource, “/”)[4])
| extend managedInstance = tostring(split(childResource, “/”)[-1])
| project subscriptionId, resourceGroup, managedInstance, VirtualCluster=name, NovemberFeatureWave2022Enabled
| order by [‘subscriptionId’], resourceGroup, VirtualCluster, managedInstance
The output will show you at the subscription level if the instances have been enrolled or not.

Finding multiple Matrix in a txt file
I want to do radiobiological calculations for structures in a patient with two different plans. I have a txt file with all the data in it. The txt file contains among other things the biological structure (which exists in both plans), the biological data in two columns and two rows that specifies what plan and what structure it is.
I know how to code the math to do the calculations, but how do I most easy read the text file and store each plans column in like a matrix?
For example (in my own dumb coding brain) I would like matlab to "Search a txt file that has a certain name that the user can specify. For a specific organ like the bladder, put the data in a variable called something like "Bladder Plan 1" and "Bladder Plan 2". Do math. Do same for all other organs. Put result in a report. Save as pdf or file". I hope that the wonderful Matlab community can help me, since I am no Matrix wizard with coding.
For all patients the structures all have the same naming convention, so I guess I could specify somewhere/somehow what organs should be searched for in the text file and what I would like the variable to be called, so that the search in the text file could go quick.
If anyone has any tips and suggestions that would be great. I have attached an anonymized txt file of how it could look like.I want to do radiobiological calculations for structures in a patient with two different plans.

2D data fitting – Surface
I have some numbers as a function of 2 variables: _( x, y ) ↦ z_.
I would like to know which function _z = z( x, y )_ best fits my data.
Unfortunately, I don’t have any hint, I mean, there’s no theoretical background on these numbers. They’re the result ( _z_ ) of some FEM simulations of a system, being the simulation a parametric sweep over two parameters ( _x_ and _y_ ) of the system.

Microsoft List changing from am to pm
Hello all,
I have an issue with a Sharepoint List I created.
I have a list view which users normally edit in grid view. When they add a date like 08/12/2024 12:00 a.m.
It changes to 08/12/2024 12:00 p.m. and it only happens with the grid view.
It also happens from p.m. to a.m.
The problem started with the new look that List has since about a month ago. Has anyone encountered this issue before?

Announcing General Availability of Attach & Detach of Virtual Machines on Virtual Machine Scale Sets
Today, we’re thrilled to announce that the ability to attach or detach Virtual Machines (VMs) to and from a Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS) with no downtime is Generally Available. This functionality is available for scale sets with Flexible Orchestration Mode with a Fault Domain Count of 1.
Benefits
Let Azure do the work: Easily move from a single VM to VMSS Flex and make use of all the benefits that come from scale sets, like Autoscale, Auto OS Upgrades, Spot Priority Mix, Instance Repairs, and Upgrade Policies.
Easily scale: By attaching an existing VM to an existing VMSS Flex, you can grow your Compute without having to rebuild it from scratch.
No downtime: You can attach running VMs to a scale set with no downtime, thereby creating a frictionless experience to make use of scale sets.
Isolated troubleshooting: Should you need more detailed troubleshooting of a VM, you can now detach the VM to isolate it from the scale set.
Easily move VMs: Using the feature, you can easily move VMs between scale sets to ensure your VMs are grouped the way you want them to be.
When the VM and VMSS meet all the qualifications, you can quickly attach the VM to the scale set by updating the VM to use the VMSS ID. You can attach VMs through the REST API, Azure Portal, Azure CLI, or Azure PowerShell. For example, using PowerShell:
#Get VM information
$vm = Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $vmName `
#Get scale set information
$vmss = Get-AzVmss -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $vmssName `
#Update the VM with the scale set ID
Update-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -VM $vm -VirtualMachineScaleSetId $vmss.Id
Conversely, to detach the VM from the scale set, you simply need to update the VM to no longer use a VMSS ID:
#Get VM information
$vm = Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $vmName
#Update the VM with the new scale set refence of $null
Update-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -VM $vm -VirtualMachineScaleSetId $null
Attach and detach of VMs to/from VMSS Flex with a Fault Domain Count of 1 is Generally Available in Azure.

To learn more about how to attach or detach VMs to or from a VMSS Flex, please visit the documentation.

How does Forward kinematik work in Robotics System Toolbox?
How does the Robot System Toolbox work internally?
I noticed some small offset in the results of the Forward Kinematics if I compare the result of getTransform with the plain geometric Forward Kinematics calculated with the parameters from the Datasheet (p. 61).
The offset also seems to be dynamic. So I wonder what the reason could be.
Is there some kind of dynamic simulation of the joints stiffnes?
Attached is some code to reproduce this:

Microsoft Bookings – Blocking off time
We have a team in our company that is planning on setting aside 2-3 weeks for premium support for particular clients. Every weekday for those 2-3 weeks, they want to block off timeslots of 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM for those particular clients to be able to book time with team members to discuss product innovations and customer care issues.
Is there a best practice within Microsoft Bookings (or any best practices in general) to allow for this?

Introducing an AI Governance Framework for Nonprofits
How to navigate nonprofit AI adoption with a clear framework
The AI Governance Framework for Nonprofits was developed with insights from nearly two dozen nonprofit leaders to help organizations navigate AI adoption and management. The framework was sponsored by Microsoft and created by noted AI advisor, Afua Bruce, author of The Tech that Comes Next, founder and principal of ANB Advisory Group, and faculty member at Carnegie Mellon University.
The framework aims to provide nonprofits with a clear and actionable roadmap for governance and AI adoption. The training includes video overviews and downloadable documents tailored to organizations’ current AI implementation status, with a focus on real-world use cases and productivity-driven scenarios. Download the kit to receive:
Internal AI policy templates
Examples of AI use
Materials for board discussions
Six modules for comprehensive guidance on AI implementation.
Download the full kit with videos, templates, and frameworks here.
Chart showing AI policy framework based on producivity-driven scenarios, community-informed approach, modular design, easily understood and usable, and anchored in real-world use cases.
Meeting nonprofit challenges with AI
We know based on research that over half of nonprofit workers are unsure of how to use AI, highlighting the need for training and a framework to guide responsible AI use within organizations. Yet nonprofits, facing a crisis of funding and staffing constraints, are most poised to benefit from the productivity, time saving, and creativity that AI can bring to their important work.
Chart showing the spectrum of AI adoption at nonprofits with 22% identified as Power Users, 53% saying they are unsure of how to use AI, and 19% saying they had one-time training.
Balanced, responsible AI
Afua Bruce’s framework emphasizes the importance of implementing AI policies now, to help nonprofits balance creativity and responsibility in AI tool usage, and to ease administrative burdens while being mindful of AI’s limitations.
AI should complement, not compromise, the core values of empathy, human-driven service, and critical service provision that define nonprofit organizations. The framework brings a human-centered approach that keeps nonprofit missions at the heart of its adoption strategy in an accessible step-by-step format.
