However, i really want it to open a document that is held on a server so it doesn't have a drive as such. Is there anyway to get round this as it doesn't like the path i am inputting.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 11 Aug 2010 09:07:37 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/how-to-create-a-button-that-opens-other-QlikView-documents/m-p/270391#M1203693 2010-08-11T09:07:37Z how to create a button that opens other QlikView documents https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/how-to-create-a-button-that-opens-other-QlikView-documents/m-p/270392#M1203694 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Can you use the IP address of your server?</P><P>e.g.</P><P><A>\\12.2.1.151\Qlikview\Doc1.QVW</A></P><P></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 11 Aug 2010 09:50:11 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/how-to-create-a-button-that-opens-other-QlikView-documents/m-p/270392#M1203694 hopkinsc 2010-08-11T09:50:11Z how to create a button that opens other QlikView documents https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/how-to-create-a-button-that-opens-other-QlikView-documents/m-p/270393#M1203695 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Make sure that the user opening the document in the server has access to the document and the folder where it is saved.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 11 Aug 2010 09:52:42 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/how-to-create-a-button-that-opens-other-QlikView-documents/m-p/270393#M1203695 2010-08-11T09:52:42Z
