Hi, unfortunately we cannot use Execute statement for due client policy,

so i need something for move my qvd files from one folder to another.

I know that I can store qvds in the final folder, but i dont know how delete qvds from start folder without override permissions.

Any help?

Annalisa.

Hi Annalisa,

Perhaps you do not have permission to delete files from the desired folder. In this case, you should contact your system administrator.

Regards,

Andrey

Out of QlikView: No,

as only workaround you may overwrite a qvd without data.

How to do without rights?

Without rights is not real. For this they were created. You have one way - is to negotiate with your system administrator.

Running the script requires anyhow ADMIN-rights. So, where is the problem?

Else let the guys from IT do the cleaning.
