Loading all rows from Excel including Blank rows

rustyfishbones — Thu, 19 Jun 2014 13:46:38 GMT

Hi All,

I am loading an xlsx file into Qlikview that only contains 3000 lines of Data.

However Qlikview seems to to load all rows including Blank Data, so when I reload the qvw I get over 1 million rows

I have deleted formatting and all cells below the 3000 i need but it still loads over 1 million

Any ideas

I've had to do this before:

1 - Open a new instance of excel

2 - Copy and paste the data part from your 'data' spreadsheet into your new spreadsheet

3 - Save your new spreadsheet

4 - Try loading your new spreadsheet

Maybe it will work for this situation too. Good luck!

Thanks Josh,

I realize I can do this but if I get an updated file I don't want to have to copy and paste each time.

I found an issue on line 1048418 just before the end of the excel file that seems to be a Table in Excel so I removed it and it worked

Thanks for your help though
