'=Only({} [$(vLanguage)])' expression not make effect

Tue, 23 Oct 2012 09:30:51 GMT

hi all,

Recently i went through the demos Qlikview provided, and try to implement sth like the mutil-language functionality in demo 'Sales Compass'.

I create a qvw file in my pc, and copy the title expression to the objects in my qvw file(=Only({<Index = {15}>} [$(vLanguage)])), but it not works. Could you please help to fix the issue? thanks a lot

Attached is the data source and the qvw file I created.

look at the caption of the graph ,to look how you need to write your expression that it will show the translation

Thanks liron,

I saw 2 different types for your expression, still not sure how it works for the 2nd one.

Could you please help to clarify? I seeing square bracket for the variable vLanguage.

1. =Only({<Index = {15}>}if(language= vLanguage,translation))

2. =Only({<Index = {16}>} [$(vLanguage)])

Hello Michael,

Index function don't work when Index number is repeat many times as you do with the crosstable :

1.Remove crosstable from your script

2.Hard coding the list of language

It's works at my side in Japanses !!

In french :

See below Code :

===================

SET HidePrefix = '#';

Language:

LOAD Index,

English,

French,

German,

Dutch,

Japanese

FROM

D:\temp\qlik test\language.xls

(biff, embedded labels, table is Sheet1$);

LET vLanguage = '=Minstring(#LANGUAGE)';

LanguageList:

LOAD * INLINE [

#LANGUAGE

English

French

German

Dutch

Japanese

];
