Hi,

I want to give the user the possibillity to reload the data on a qlikview file by clicking a button in the form instead of using the reload command in the menu bar.

How can i do that?

You can do it by assigning macro to your button:

sub ReloadSave

ActiveDocument.Reload

ActiveDocument.Save

end sub

Hi Michael,

Does this work if the user access via Access point?

i tried, and it didn't work.

If it's for desktop version? why do we need to create an additional button when we already have it at the toolbar?

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Nick,

It doesn't work via Access Point. Actually, there was a suggestion in "Ideas" section about this recently, and it was rejected.

Technically it is possible. I never needed it There was a solution here on Community, you can try to find.

So, it is for the desktop version. The need for this is not common. I can think of some situations, for example:

- Some actions should happen before or after reload. Easy to combine in a macro.

- QlikView application is embeded in another software (using qlikocx), and there is no standard desktop toolbar.

Regards,

Michael
