CSV file connection to ODBC

Hi,

How can I make a ... CSV file connection to an ODBC connection..

similiar to the one we create like that for an excel file

ODBC CONNECT TO [EXCEL Files;DBQ=$(file)];

DO I have to also install some driver or somting?

Why would you want to do that? You don't need a ODBC connection to read XLS or CSV files with QlikView.

Rgds,

I agree with Joachim, but if for some odd reason you would need to create a ODBC for a xls or csv file, you create it in Windows first in the Control Panel like any other ODBC and QlikView will make it available to you.

Regards.
