'Access specific cell from a range in a Google Spreadsheet
I have a spreadsheet in Google Docs. It has two sheets "projectList" and "projectListCompleted". When I change the contents of a specific column to "Completed" the code I have moves that ROW from projectList to projectListCompleted. If I go to the "Completed" sheet and change that same column to ANYTHING ELSE then it moves that ROW back to my Working Projects sheet. Well, I am trying to make the code a little more robust. I am creating a function called 'projectMover' and I want to call it and tell it was action to do... Completed, Cancelled, Active, etc. and have it make decisions based on that.
The code I use to move a project (i.e., an Active ROW) from one sheet to another is here:
function moveToNewSheet( myActiveSpreadsheet, myActiveSheet, myActiveRange, myTargetSheet )
{
var row = myActiveRange.getRow();
var numColumns = myActiveSheet.getLastColumn();
var targetSheet = myActiveSpreadsheet.getSheetByName( myTargetSheet );
var target = targetSheet.getRange(targetSheet.getLastRow() + 1, 1);
myActiveSheet.getRange(row, 1, 1, numColumns).moveTo(target);
myActiveSheet.deleteRow(row);
// targetSheet.sort(1);
return target;
};
This code works great. No problems.
But I'm starting on my projectMover function and hitting glitches because I don't understand the API as well as I would like. What I am trying to do is have 'projectMover' call the 'moveToNewSheet' code. This code passes back what SHOULD BE the RANGE of the moved project. I want to access COLUMN G in that range and insert the current date so that projects have a completed date. However, as you can see in my code I am not quite grasping how to access that cell.
Anyone have any ideas?
function projectMover( myActiveSpreadsheet, myActiveSheet, myActiveRange, myAction )
{
switch ( myAction )
{
case "Completed":
var myTarget = moveToNewSheet( myActiveSpreadsheet, myActiveSheet, myActiveRange, "projectListCompleted" );
var targetCell = myTarget.getCell(1,7);
targetCell.activate();
targetCell.setValue( "test" );
break;
default:
break;
}
// get targetSheet and sort it
};
