Abstract: A data cell included in a document supporting cell structured data is conditionally formatted according to data that is stored in a separate location from the document. A user is allowed to select from a drop-down menu of related data sets a particular data set for conditionally formatting the data cell. The data cell is formatted according to the data set and the condition without requiring that the data set be stored locally in the document.

Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus for implementing object interfaces at runtime are provided. According to the method, a request is received for a resource that includes a client side object that supports an object interface. In response to the request, program code is generated that implements the interface. Once the program code implementing the object interface has been generated, the requested resource and the program code implementing the object interface are returned in response to the request for the resource. An intermediary object for mediating communication between objects is also generated and returned in response to the request. If the object interface implements an interface for consuming data, the object interface registers itself with the intermediary object as an event consumer. If the object interface implements a provider interface, the object interface calls the intermediary object in response to the occurrence of a specified type of event.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer-readable medium are provided for exposing and utilizing property values maintained at a server computer. A request is received at the server computer for a resource, such as a Web page. In response to receiving the request, a determination is made by the server computer as to whether a property value maintained at the server computer should be returned with the resource. If the property value should be returned with the resource, the current value of the specified property is retrieve and is rendered into the resource as a variable statement specifying the current value of the property. The resource, including the variable statement, is then returned to the requesting application where it may be utilized.

Abstract: The present invention leverages curve fitting data techniques to provide automatic detection of data anomalies in a “data tube” from a data perspective, allowing, for example, detection of data anomalies such as on-screen, drill down, and drill across data anomalies in, for example, pivot tables and/or OLAP cubes. It determines if data substantially deviates from a predicted value established by a curve fitting process such as, for example, a piece-wise linear function applied to the data tube. A threshold value can also be employed by the present invention to facilitate in determining a degree of deviation necessary before a data value is considered anomalous. The threshold value can be supplied dynamically and/or statically by a system and/or a user via a user interface. Additionally, the present invention provides an indication to a user of the type and location of a detected anomaly from a top level data perspective.
