Table selection greyed out when doing binary load

Fri, 08 May 2009 07:00:57 GMT

Hey guys. I have a weird issue that I can't figure out. Normally, when I load some data in a QVW, and I create a chart or go to Select Fields, I can select a table from Show Fields from Table to narrow my search. I recently built a new QVW that does a binary load of another QVW. All the data and fields are there, but now when I try to create a chart, the Show Fields from Table drop-down is greyed out and disabled. My friend tried this and didn't have the same problem. Does anyone know why this would happen and how to fix it? I figure it's a setting somewhere, but I can't find any documentation. Thanks for the help!

Hi ,

Just try putting in an extra line after the binary load like :-

Binary QlickViewFile.qvw;
Let 1 = 1;

Hope it will work.

For details you can see the post : http://community.qlik.com/forums/p/9940/39952.aspx

Thanks,

Perfect - I always had the same problem and wondered why!?

Always thought it would be a security setting or so but never found a setting for that.

It's really ridiculous - but worked for me too 😄

Thanks too
