Open any text editor, create a new file and add the code for the connection to the file. Then save the file with a .qvs extension. In Qlikview open the Script Editor, choose the option Include Statement from the Insert menu and select the .qvs file you created.

Dear Jim Chan ,

If you are using notepad to save script then while saving file just use double quote(") before and after name

eg. "MyScript.qvs"

Happy Learning !

Please use "All Files" when saving.

And try using a more robust text editor like Notepad++
