Locating where a QVD file is located

Fri, 07 Jun 2013 08:45:31 GMT

Hello,

I have a qvw file which loads from a facility.qvd file. My problem is that there have been more facilities added to the source database since the qvd file was created. I have a large number of different qvw files on the server and I cannot work out how to find the original qvw file to update the qvd. Is there any way I can update the qvd file or locate the original qvw file.

The path is only shown as


  
 
 
  
FROM

[..\STDQVD\Facility_New.qvd]
(qvd
)

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

if you have EasyQlik QViewer you can open qvd file with it and select View from menu -> file metadata and see creator path.

The tool has trial version.

Best,

Yani
