VB and Qlik

[#1]

Hi All,

I have developed a dashboard with some charts and is it possible to call that dashboard directly into any VB.NET application without Qlick???

Thanks

Hi,

If your vb.net application is web application then you can do the following way. Use the iframe in aspx page. In the iframe source tag call the qlik view document path.

The qlik view path will be "http://localhost/QlikView/Plugin/<your document name>.

Try this way.

thanks

HI,

I f you you installed the Qlik View Server then, it will automatically create the virtual directory in server.

You can find this "Qlikview" in your IIS.

Thanks

Hi joshtheflame,

qlikview has an OCX that gives you access to qlikview inside a vb.net application.

there is an entire SDK and the OCX is a part of it.

as far as i know it needs to be purchased separately.

it comes with its own merge modules that you must embed in the .net application and there you also supply the KEY that you got from qliktech.

after you install it you get access to the OCX which is basically QV inside a control.

if you check the APIGUIDE.QVW that you have with your normal installation of qlikview you can see there all the methods and properties you have access too (check under the "QlikViewOCX API" tab).

inside this OCX you can oen a QVW fro your user.

if your application needs more control over qliview, or if you need is to embed just objects(charts, pivots, etc) then a webpage with qv webparts is the only solution

you can reference the QlikView IE plugin (aka QlikView OCX aka QlikView ActiveX component) in a .net project, and the .net interop will create the proper wrapper code to use it from a .net application

well this is the SAME OCX i was referning to.

mind you that the merge modules are still needed

I have the same problem in VB.Net, I'm using the QlikView 9.0 Type Library COM reference, this works fine with the public samples but not with my own created QVW files. I'm using the personal edition.

The error I always get is "The object invoked has disconnected from its clients. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010108 (RPC_E_DISCONNECTED))".

Here's my test code :

Dim QVApp As QlikView.Application Dim QVDoc As QlikView.Document

'start QlikView application

QVApp =

New QlikView.Application

'open QVW file

QVDoc = QVApp.OpenDoc(strQVFileName)

'clear all selections

QVDoc.ClearAll(

False) --> here I get the error

In this topic they are talking about QlikView OCX, this is not installed, where can I find this to try this instead.

Thanks.
