Check all Expressions in a QVW

Hello,

I have a question regarding the maintainance of QVW Files.

If i remove a field from the script, because i think i don't need it, then some expressions might stop working cause the field is gone.

But, how do i get to know that? Is there any way to eveluate all expressions in a qvw and show those, who are not working correctly ?

Thanks for your suggestions,

Fabian

You have several options:

  • Click Ctrl-Alt-E to get the expressions dialog. You can do a search here.
  • Download the Metascan model (search this site) which will display the meta data for a model.
  • Create a project folder (-prj folder with the same name as the QV model), save the model and use grep or a similar tool to scan the XML files for the field name

Hope that helps

Hi,

Try Document analyzer file created by  Rob Wunderlich.  It helps in analyzing the expressions and the dimensions used in your qlikview file.  http://robwunderlich.com/downloads

Hope this helps you.

Okay, thanks for the tips.

But that does not solve my problem. I think it would be up to QlikTech to implement a function, e.g. Check Expression, that checks if all of the used expressions return a value or null....
