how to use resident or concatenate in Load editor

[vanir88]

Hi

i am using csv file for my report below file is for Jan month,  every month we will get csv files  and we have to upend the new file to existing code and we have to maintain historic data as well ... so in below case if i load file next month it will override the data of current month... so which one i have to use to uppend the data either Resident or Concatinate can you please help

Janstats:
LOAD
"Session ID",
"Session Started",
"Session Finished",
Result,
"Result Content",
"Today",
"User Name",,

FROM [lib://AttachedFiles/Jan Stats.csv]

Neither. You can just load both files, since Qlik automatically concatenates two tables if they have the exact same list of fields. If you'd like to spell it out, you can use Concatenate Load, though.

Hi,
Using an asterisk (*) in your path in place of the file name will load all available CSV files at once into one table.

Allstats:
LOAD * FROM [lib://AttachedFiles/*.csv];

I wasn't referring to the load statement, I was talking about using (*) in the directory. Assuming, column names and format remains the same.

AllStats:
LOAD
"Session ID",
"Session Started",
"Session Finished",
Result,
"Result Content",
"Today",
"User Name"

FROM [lib://AttachedFiles/*.csv];
