open one application from another application

Wed, 16 Feb 2011 06:22:57 GMT

Hi,

I have two applications, say Test1.qvw and Test2.qvw.

Test1.qvw is accessible through AccessPoint i.e application is in root folder but Test2.qvw is at another location.

I have created a listbox in Test1.qvw, list box having value SH01, SH02,New.

On a selection of SH01 & SH02 the sheet from same application get activated but when I select New the Test2.qvw should get open.

What macro should I write for the same.

Currently I am using QV10.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Upendra,

Qlikview 9 :- Create a Button -> Go in Actions Tab -> Click Add Button -> In Action Type List Select "External" -> In Action List Select "Launch" ->Click OK -> Now in Application Browse "C:\Program Files\QlikView\QV.Exe" -> & in FileName Put the Name of the File U want to open And Press apply & OK. U Can put a Field or a Variable Name in FileName Textbox as well. This will open the File In a new Qlikview window. If u want to open the file in the same window u can remove the QV.EXE path from the application menu & it will open the Qliview file in the sam window.

Qlikview 8.5 -> Go in Launch tab of a button -> In Application textbox put the name of the file to be opened. (Same way u can use a field Name or a variable) here as well.

Thanks.

Try This

Create a Button / Text object, go to actions, click on External

there you will find "Open Qlikview Document" and in the right handside text you give the path of the application.

enable the check boxes for 1. Transfer State, 2. Apply State on top of current.

hope this helps.
