topic parameters before script/data loading in QlikView

parameters before script/data loading

jasonseril — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 11:24:20 GMT

Good day to all,

I would like to ask if it is possible to input parameters (say popup an input box to input from-to date range) before loading the script or data on opening a qlikview document? It would be nice if someone has a sample application for this inquiry.

Thank you very much.

i haven't been able to do that on document opening but once a document is open, it is possible to have an input box that gives the user ability to select the number of years to reload data for and hence reload the document with that many years of data.

you could try a macro to see if that works or just write an application and fires QV using a command line with parameters to use for data reload and then open the document upon completion of reload.

hope this helps.

Many thanks, Amir. Do you have any sample qlikview application with input box for date range? But anyway, I will try this one. Thanks again.
