ASCII to char - Data from DB

 Hi!

I should show in the QLIK Sense APP the name of the machine operator. We get the datas from a OPC UA server and store this data in a MySQL DB. The system cannot store characters. So we translate the characters to ASCII. Eatch single character to 1 entry. Now in QLIK it should trasnlate back to characters. The result should be a name. (combination of TagID 70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,...85) I got the solution the translate the ASCII to Char in this post. But I have no idea to use this way in my situation.
Attaches example form my DB.

You are fetching the data directly from the dta base, you should use the select statement, not load . If you use the table already there in the app use resident load .

 

May be send your code i can correct it.

I can't download your qvf now. It will take me a while to open and reply because of restriction. Just post the piece of code you put in the screenshot above and i can reply back sooner.

Hi

perfect! the script is running.

THX

but one problem. The characters are not in the right order.

Example ID 70 to 77

084 114 097 108 108 097 108 097

Output should: Trallala

But I get:  Taaalllr

Ohk. I see. Try below

[esync_tagshistory]:
FIRST 100 LOAD 
	[TagId] AS [Id-TagId],
	[_date],
	[msec],
	[Val] AS [esync_tagshistory.Val],
	[Quality] AS [esync_tagshistory.Quality];
SELECT TagId, 
	`_date`, 
	msec, 
	Val, 
	Quality 
FROM esync.`esync_tagshistory`;



noconcatenate
[data]:
Load [_date],concat([esync_tagshistory.Val],'',[Id-TagId] ) as [esync_tagshistory.Val_new]
 group by [_date];
LOAD
       [Id-TagId],
	[_date],
	[msec],
	[esync_tagshistory.Val],
	 [esync_tagshistory.Quality];
	if([Id-TagId] >= 70 and [Id-TagId] <=85, chr([esync_tagshistory.Val]),[esync_tagshistory.Val]) as [esync_tagshistory.Val]
	
resident [esync_tagshistory]
where [Id-TagId] >= 70 and [Id-TagId] <=85
order by [_date],[Id-TagId] asc;

Finally solved.

 

Have a look at the comcat function and it's sort weight, It's goes unnoticed many time like we did previously.
