Good afternoon everyone,
I would like to know, how to call a windows batch file to run set of commands from Qlikview.
Calling program should be able to pass parameters as well to batch file.
Look up the EXECUTE command in the help file. Then search this site for examples. Perhaps this discussion helps: http://community.qlik.com/message/382293#382293
Already tried, but not working. I need to call batch file and the action should wait until the process get complete
I think what you need is the SLEEP command to wait for a number of seconds before returning to QlikView. My understanding is that you cannot tell when a batch file finishes and I have in the past used a simple SLEEP to pause the process (in a Macro or script) until I am certain that the process is complete.
Hope this helps
