Identify All Reports In A Folder That Use A Table Column

rebelfox — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

I have inherited a folder full of hundreds of Qlikview reports that do not use a common QVD abstract layer as a data source.

I need to identify all the reports that use a specific column as the column data will be changing and it will impact report logic.

Is there a way I can analyse the entire folder of reports to see if they use or reference a given table column name?

The only two ways I can think of to do it are:-

1) Open each document one at a time and search the Script ( Poor! )

2) Use the Document Analyser to open each one, extract meta data and identify if the field is present and used in the fields tab.

If anybody has any other options I'd love to hear them.

Thanks.
