Hello,  New to Appian and having a syntax issue that I couldn't figure out how to resolve. Help! Thanks

The Appian exercises instruct users to "save often", as updates are not automatically saved, but I am not seeing an explanation of how to do this. Is it just when you click "save" when creating/updating an object? If so, the reminder seems unnecessary as you must click that button to move forward. Is there something I'm missing?

I am unable to access my appian learning site. It got locked and i cant seem to restart it. 

i am assigned with a task to calculate the total of records vertically(column wise) and horizontally(row-wise) when a user makes any changes in the text boxes. i have attached a screenshot below. basically, the grid can have n no of rows(to be fetched from the db) but no of columns will remain same always. but for now i'm trying to make this happen with only static values. Future task: is to make paging happen in the same Grid. somehow, i am able to solve it for horizontal calculations. but still struggling for vertical calculations.

Hello, In my process model I have a CDT that I use to pass in to a form.  In the process model is there a way to remove a blank record. In my CDT the very first record is always empty, so when I pass the CDT to the form my editable grid on the first row is empty with no data. I am trying to figure out how I can delete the first record from the CDT before passing it to the form in the process model. The CDT is multi and can hold more than 1 record as well. Thank you for any help

Hi all,    My older version code uses executesqlQuery to execute a SQL code and it returns dictionary value . They used the rule in main interface to save the values to local variables. Now the function is deprecated and we replace it with executeStoredProcedureForQuery to execute SQL and it returns Map structure. But we are getting error while saving that in the main interface. This is the error we are getting. I have changed the index value as the new structure but still I am getting error. Anyone have idea about how to resolve that? Thanks, Kavya
