Change variable in scripts

Anonymous — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 14:23:28 GMT

Hi All i have a question i needed help with

I am Migrating qvw's from 1 server to another.

I have a variable in over 250 qvw's as below

SET vQvdSaveToDir = 'D:\Qlikview Storage\';

and want to change to the following

SET vQvdSaveToDir = 'D:\O_QlikviewData\QVD\Qlikview Storage\';

Is there an automated way of doing this other than individually going into each of the 250 qvw scripts and changing this?

Thanks

Adil

Hello,

It would have been parametric if you kept your scripts in a text file and apply via include.

You can use -prj folder technique but still you will need to open qvws so does not seem efficient.

I hope for you that there is a way (i donot know)

I would suggest to put information which can be used from many applications in an include script. than it is one place to change the information.
