How can i get advanced qlikview knowledge ?

[#1]

Hi There I am new to QLikView and i must say it is pretty amazing. Anyway i am used to old MDX B.I style.

I have worked through the QLikview ELEarning , finished the tutorial and started looking at demo's. However i have so many questions and need advanced knowledge. Especially on scripting and expressions, set analysis etc. I cannot find any books on qlikview, so basically my question is where do i go next ?

How do i learn more about how to do common mdx stuff like parrallel periods variance , sales over months in QLikview expressions, how do i script a table that has multiple time keys that would normally require multiple dimensions.

etc etc.

Any point in the right direction to getting more advanced helpful documentation on QLikview would be geratly appreciated, especially advanced scripting for complex data models and equivalant expressions for common MDX functions.

Thanx

#8. Use the Qlikview Cookbook http://robwunderlich.com/Download.html

There have been 1,850 downloads of the latest version of the Cookbook since it was published in December 2008. I hope someone is using it!

Hi,

Did you download the Tutorial and Reference Manual that is available with QV 9 to download? Please do that. the tutorial will be enough to get you started, however for advanced knowledge, the refrence Manual and the automation guide will be required.

It will be lot of read & do required.

Dear,

Here is the way I started.

First 2 days - Demo by an export - 'Not Bad'

Next 1 week - Read throght developers giude and saw some samples - 'Interesting'

Next 1 week - Tried soem samples with record set features - 'WOW'

Then onwards - fell in love!

Sky is the limit for your QV dreams. Try out the descrete programming logic in C/Java etc mainly using sets. Everything will work and the application will be more faster.

Cheers, Arun
