VBScript Automation API

While trying out the API guide of Qlikview 11 at QlikView Core COM API Guide - Version 11. It seems the number of methods do not run. example:

Set cs = objActiveDoc.GetSheetObject("TX92")

msgbox(cs.GetNoOfRows)

as per Send Mail from QlikView with table in the mail body

also, several  things are not working properly.

Can anybody give a good reference for solving all the VBScript - QlikView Automation.

Thanks

I came to the same conclusion after testing many of the examples.

Some of them does not work...

But to know why you need to know more about VBS and probably the version of your qlik.

You can try to validate them yourself, Google it by looking for VBS course or contact the author.

Example you have provide  will not work

Set cs = objActiveDoc.GetSheetObject("TX92")

msgbox(cs.GetNoOfRows)

TX92 is a textbox which does not have any rows.

do you have any particular problem with macro?
