hierarchy of tables

hi,

i have 3 tables, and the unión between this tables is ClientCode.

i match the tables in data manager, and then associations, but don respect the hierachy, it´s posible to give that dependence?

like a left join or inner join in SQL?

Thanks for all!

when you do leftjoin(table1), you'll have only one table left (table2 will be joined to table one)

thus: in your last load:

leftjoin(Table2)

Table 3:

ClientCode,

w,

z

from ...table 3;

there is no table2 , because it's already a part of table 1 :

try

leftjoin(Table1)

Table 3:

ClientCode,

w,

z

from ...table 3;

When you load table via load editor, it will create an automatic script.

Go to the data load, find the script, in the up right , unlock the generated script so that you can modify it.

Let's assume you have 2 tables:

do this: (table1 will be the 'master table'

Table 1 :

ClientCode,

b,

c

from ...table 1;

leftjoin(Table1)

Table 2 :

ClientCode,

k,

j

from ...table 2;

ho^pe this was clear,

yes, it`s OK but the column of the unión?

i have some columns with the same name in both tables, i want to say in the script that the column of the unión is ClientCode.

thanks

Qlik does not opperate like this; it does the association via the name of the fields. If you want a join in one field, you have to rename other fileds

But if your data source is oracle for example, you can do the join in the select part :

// here is the qlik language :

load *


//
here you can use the sql language of your data source

select

left join table2 on field= table1.field

from bla bla



I hope that was clear
