macro problem in IE plugin

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi all,

i'm trying to run the below macro code in IE Plugin.

Using System Data:

QlikView 11 SR1 server

Internet Explorer Browser.

sub runDoc

set Var=ActiveDocument.Variables("vTest")

set App=ActiveDocument.GetApplication

set UserFile = App.OpenDoc ("http://localhost/QvAJAXZfc/opendoc.htm?document=Pass%20parameters%20in%20Web/"&vApp.GetContent.String&".qvw&host=QVS@share","","")

set v = UserFile.Variables("vTest")

v.SetContent Var.GetContent. String,true

ActiveDocument.ClearAll false

end sub

Please can some one tell me why the macro is not working.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

What do you want to do? Open a QlikView document using a button? If so, why don't you use a direct action instead? In the code above you are referring to "vApp". Such variable does not exist or is missing in your example.

Hope that helps.

Hi thanks for reply.

sub runDoc

set vTest=ActiveDocument.Variables("vTest")

set vApp=ActiveDocument.Variables("vApp")

set App=ActiveDocument.GetApplication

set UserFile = App.OpenDoc ("http://localhost/QvAJAXZfc/opendoc.htm?document=Pass%20parameters%20in%20Web/"&vApp.GetContent.String&".qvw&host=QVS@share","","")

set v = UserFile.Variables("vTest")

v.SetContent vTest.GetContent. String,true

ActiveDocument.ClearAll false

end sub

What i'm trying to do is :

1.) in current app there is a list object which will show all the qvw file names

2.) now user will select any one qvw file name and clicks on button , then selected qvw should open in browser.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

What type of directory are you using? Active Directory, Custom? Does that code work with Ajax?

Regards.

Hi,

Go to the QEMC (or QMC if you are using version 11), System, Setup, Directory Service Connectors, expand and check which one of the list (Custom, Active, Configurable, etc) has a user and password set up. Check with your IT people if necessary.

Hope that helps.
