Open the Property dialogue box of a QVD file,

Click Change as shown in #1, Use Qlikview as in #2.

This will set the default program to qlikview for opening any QVD file....

Dear ,

in case of Incremental load.

first you need to load the full load and store that table into a Qvd file.

Then comment out the full load.

and perform the incremental load with the where condition and concatenate the full load table which you stored into the Qvd file with where exist condition.

if possible share the sample file

Thanks,

Mukram.

I think you are not using the correct connection string thats why its gving you ODBC Connection failed...

Please check your connection string and the DSN which you are using..
