filename and path with visual basic

Mon, 12 May 2014 11:50:13 GMT

Hey guys,

this is my first post in this forum. In the past I have already found many solutions here. Many thanks to these sites.

But for me the time has come where I need to ask you for advice.

Unfortunately I have no knowledge of programming in Visual Basic. What I would like to achieve is the file name and the path to the *.qvw.

I hope you can help me. Thank you in any advance.

P.S. Of course I have first the forum every effort to find an answer, unfortunately without success.

Regards,

Christian.

No VB is required. Look at the DocumentName and DocumentPath system functions.

You may not need script for this. Use DocumentName() or DocumentPath() for the file name and path name of the qvw file.

Thanks for your fast response. It seems not so easy for me.

Now i write for test following lines in an VB Script:

Nothing like that worked so far. That can not really be so difficult, I thought.

Any other spellings?

You can store the document name and path in variables in your load script.

Ex: Let vDocName = DocumentName()

Then you can reference the variable in VB.
