How to include script?

ananyaghosh — Thu, 26 Mar 2015 08:38:47 GMT

Hi,

I need to include a .txt file or a script file to include into another script file. What to do now?

Also what will be the extension to store a script file in a particular location and after storing it how can I run it from QlikView?

try assigning a variable.

Let LoaderPath = '..\..\loader scripts\';

is the correct usage

whether you need to export the script ?

If so , edit script ->file->export to script file. Save it as qvs.

If you need to import it into qlikview , edit script ->insert->script file

Hi Sandip,

A script file can be stored using the extension .qvs

If you want to include that script in another script you can use the following statement

$(Include=..\..\..\scriptname.qvs)

PS: Full file path(absolute or relative) for qvs is required

So is it binary load? if not what is the difference between binary load and include startement?

It's not a binary load.

Binary load is when you load the actual data from another .qvw document.
Include is when you insert script code from an external text file into the script

in binary load can we load .qvd file to load data or .qvw file to load both data and script? also in binary load if we load .qvw file then the graph object that we created also copied into existing .qvd file?

.qvd are pure data files

and in binary load only data is copied not the UI objects

QVD is loaded with an ordinary LOAD statement, not BINARY.

With BINARY you load entire datamodel from a QVW, not any UI.
