Disabling edit script button - Registry Settings

marcel_olmo — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 00:39:16 GMT

I've found in other post that if you put the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\QlikTech\QlikView\Settings 7\DisableScripting=1 , the qlikview document will disable the "edit script" button. (That's what I want to do).

I'm trying to make "disable edit script" with a function like this :

sub reg
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.RegWrite "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\QlikTech\QlikView\Settings 7\DisableScripting","1"
end sub

but I can't make it work!!! (I've tried some variations, but it still don't working, because it still shows "edit script" button as enabled).

If you can help me about what I'm doing wrong, I'll appreciate a lot.

Thank you

Thanks Uppendra, finally I've found it!!! It was quite difficult to find, so I'm not as stupid as I thought.

But if I check "enabling" disableScripting, I can uncheck the same variable to edit scripting as final user.

My purpose is to avoid that other users can see my script or my macros, as a security stuff to my document.

I know I can do it protecting the script and macro with a password, but my idea was to make some kind of macro to disable forever the options of editing script or macros to protect my document.

If you know how to do it, I'll appreciate that!

Many thanks anyway!! You showed me a very good trick.
