You should realize that you can only store 1 table per qvd. That means that you would have to join the three tables from your three qvd files into one table. You should ask yourself it it makes sense to do that. Why are three qvd files not an acceptable solution? Unless you can think of a very good answer to that question you should just accept using three qvd files.

Hi,

If you need to store in 3 Qvds in One data file why not try to use excel sheet

and store these 3 Qvd's in 3 different sheets of One Excel file.

Hello!!

Firstly these 3 QVDs should have some common ground on which to use them as primary keys.

Considering this, you will joins has transformed everything into a single data source.

example:

Aux:

Load

From [..\Directory\QVD1.qvd] (qvd);

Left Join (Aux)

Load

From [..\Directory\QVD2.qvd] (qvd);

Left Join (Aux)

Load

From [..\Directory\QVD3.qvd] (qvd);

Store Into Aux [..\Directory\QVDTransformed.qvd];
