Hi Rupesh,

a QVD file is created by the use of a “Store” statement in your load script. The format should be as follows:

Store [your table name] into ..\ [File Path you created as source in your Qlik application as source] \ [Name of your QVD].qvd;

Normally you drop your table after that with "Drop Table [Name of your Table]".

You can´t convert a qvd in a qvf.

A qvd is a special Tableformat from Qlik for fast reading.

A qvf is a File with your complete app include the Data and the visualisations.

You can create a QVD using a STORE statement.

Store ‒ Qlik Sense

A QVD stores a single table, while a QVF stores a complete data model containing possibly many tables, the script to build the model and the front end visualization.

The script may contain LOAD statements to load data from QVD(s).

No need to convert a QVD. Just load the data into the model .

This concatenate keyword will concatenate Book11.qvd data to the previously loaded table.

If it doesn't find any table before keyword it will give you an error.
