Stop Task from Command Line (cmd.exe)

Nicole-Smith — Tue, 05 Jul 2016 16:16:33 GMT

I've been able to successfully start my tasks in a QlikView document using command line and an execute command like the following:

EXECUTE cmd.exe /c \\$(vTaskServer)\QlikView\SourceDocuments\EDX\QMSEDX -task=$(vTaskName) -qms=$(vTaskQMS) -password=;

I'm running into some cases where I would like the ability to stop tasks in the same way. Does anyone have any ideas?

Anybody? I still haven't been able to figure this out.

Maybe you could adapt the approach from the attached vbs-batches which could be also executed from a qlikview-task like this example:

SET vCSCRIPT = 'c:\windows\system32\cscript.exe';

EXECUTE $(vCSCRIPT) "D:\OpenProtectExcelAndSaveUnprotect.vbs";

Thank you, Marcus. I will look into this.
