Directory function not working on 12.10 SR6

[#1]

Hi all,

We just upgraded to QV 12.10 SR6 and have experienced an issue where we used the directory function.

Somehow where the directory was defined using this function the model fails. If I use a variable then it works fine. Has anyone experienced the same issue?

Maybe it's related to this: QV12 $Include and Directory.

Thank you Marcus, I'll check with Rob.

Please specify by what you mean by not working.  You said the model fails, which I understand to mean a script error?

There are changes in QV12 related to Directory. QVD*() functions and $(Include) now respect the Directory.  Could you provide some specifics such as log messages for your problem?

Hi Rob,

Here's an example of what I meant.

Directory 'C:\Program Files\QlikView';

Load *

From QVData\TestData.xls ....

In QV11 this would have fetched data from C:\Program

Files\QlikView\QVData\TestData.xls w but now in QV12.10 SR6 it doesn't

work. Somehow this version doesn't recognise the value that you give to

directory but instead it gives a script error.

Can you post the relevant script log lines?
