Hi together,
i've something (for me) quite challenging:
Got some Reports in QlikView with Tables, Charts and so on, based on a DataModel with technical Fieldnames.
All these Fields were renamed and the DataSource was changed to the new DataSource (with renamed fields) - but now the question:
is there a possibility to replace/rename the fieldnames used e.g. in Formulas of Charts to the new name automatically or its just manually..?
I was thinking of working with object IDs and so on (but actually don't know how to solve it concretely )
(Btw...a table with old_name and new_name is available)
Would be great if anyone got an idea!
TYVM for helping
I had the same problem. This is not possible (which kind of sucks). The most you can do, is use the Settings --> Expressions Overview and use the option "Find/Replace"
My collegue just told me to try this:
1. Close Document
2. Create new Folder (in the folder where the qvw-file is), named like: <qvw-filename withoud .qvw>-prj_
3. (i dont remember exaclty if step 3 is needed) Open document (and safe normaly to ur qvw
4. in your new folder xml-files for each object appear and may be edited
To use the changed values of these files just open qvw-file again and its changed (to keep that changes save document)
Acutally it's handled with search/replace too - but maybe can be done with any automatism
[And actually i dont really know what -proj_ does exactly, still googling !]
Hi,
This would be manual as fas as I know.
Thanks,
