Try one of the following possibilities:


SET fa = '$(QVWorkPath)';
//or
LET fa = QVWorkPath;

Best regards

Hi Stefan,

thank you for your reply,

the first option

SET fa = '$(QVWorkPath)'

returns me a emty string (Debug mode: fa "" )

the second option

LET fa = QVWorkPath shows me fa <NULL>

any idea?

Best regards

🙂 It's a typo, sorry!

the variable's name is QvWorkPath (V not upper case!)

Best regards

Hi,

I am working to automate QV app migration from test to prod server.

I am using QvWorkRoot (or QvWorkPath) to find the document folder address.

It works fine if we open the document by giving full address (like \\xyz\abc\test.qvw)

But if we open from mapped directory QvWorkPath value is E:\\abc\test.qvw)

Is there any system/environment variable which gives server name?

Thanks,

Boopathi
