Can't connect to my own C disk Qliksense Desktop

[FPC]

Hi, I'm new to QlikSense, but I'm currently working on a QVW I built in Qlikview. 

I'm working on "Qliksense Desktop".

The main issue I have is that, I used the QVW on Qliksense, built a layout for all the data I needed, but when I try to reaload the data (I used to have data until April 19, now I have data until June19) the following error jumps:

Se ha producido el siguiente error: (Error discl. in spanish)

Connection not found: C:

El error se ha producido aquí: (Error discl. in spanish)

LOAD MANDT, MATNR, SPRAS, MAKTX, MAKTG FROM lib://C:\Users\fernando.pinto\Desktop\FDO\Qlikview\SAP\MAKT.qvd(qvd)

I don't get the error, it says it doesn't found my C disk it's ridiculous. Can someone help me pls 

Thanks in advance, best regards

The path names in QlikView and QlikSense are different, so if you converted a QlikView doc to a Qlik Sense app, then you need to set up connections to get to your data.
This can be done in the data load editor, create new connection, then point to the folder where your file lives either by clicking the path or pasting it in and giving it a name like SAP.
Then change the name of the from path in your load statement to
.. FROM [lib://SAP/MAKT.qvd](qvd);

Hi thanks for the answer. 

If I had a SET to declare the variable path how should I fix the sentence. The error I showed comes from this Set/Let (tried both).

SET QVDPATH='lib://C:\Users\fernando.pinto\Desktop\FDO\Qlikview\SAP\';

LOAD MANDT,
MATNR,
SPRAS,
MAKTX,
MAKTG
FROM $(QVDPATH)MAKT.qvd(qvd);

Where should I make the changes? 

Thanks in advance

The code looks like this: 
SET QVDPATH='lib://C:\Users\fernando.pinto\Desktop\FDO\Qlikview\SAP\';

LOAD MANDT,
MATNR,
SPRAS,
MAKTX,
MAKTG
FROM $(QVDPATH)MAKT.qvd(qvd);

This is a great way to solve the issue.

Can you send a screenshot of your Data Load progress output ?

Here it is. The print is in spanish do you need the translation? 

Let me know thanks in adv.

You need to create a connection on the right hand side

Don't bother I fixed the issue... 

It was my connection, I never realized that the path should be related to the connection path ...

Anyway, it's great to know I wasn't so far away ahahaha 

Thanks for the help, hope u be well

Best Regards
