Can you guide me how to set variable using a text box?

Thanks,

Gautham.

Ctrl Alt V open variable Overview.

Add Variablename by clicking add button.

give the value on the definition button after selecting the created variable.

Now, use it in the text box. go to properties-->Action-->Add External -->Set Variable--use the variable name and the value.

Thats all

Thanks for sharing shankarece‌ . There is a more comprehensive example of QlikView button usage here: QlikView App: At The Qlik Of A Button - should you wish to take a look.

Cheers,

Steve

Steve,

Yes, I knew that link. Since Gautham specifically asked about variabled in text box, I pointed the other qlikview app.

I am a big fan and follower of your quickintelligence blog too.
