Read file to selection in Ajax

Today I use Qlikview Plugin in my applications.

I have an analysis where exists a macro that reads an excel file on the user's machine and reads the information in a column and select this data in Qlik and finally creates a bookmark with this selection. There have looked like alo using ajax mode?

I need to use the plugin today just for this feature, exists alternatives?

Hi Ronald,

It is best to move away from macros and the reason for it is that most are not supported in AJAX. The local machine to AJAX is the server. So, I really don't know of a way to do this without the Plugin. Also, the future of the plugin is unknown at this time.

Ok Bill, thanks.

But I have one situation.

The key user has a list of fifty customers or one hundred customers. It is most slowly select one by one. Is there any way to make this selection without selecting one by one?

Kind regards.

Thanks,

But I didn't have acess the second link. Does it exist?

I saw the first link, but my situation is different.

I don't know what the selections I have to do, ok?

The selections are in a file (csv, xls), but they are many selections and I need to select more quickly.

Today I use the IE Plugin with macro to input this file and selections more quickly.

Do you have any idea? Some similar in Ajax?

Kind regards

!Hi,

You can try using the input box, where the user enters the list in a comma separated string. Then using the actions in a button you can try selecting the values in a field.

Just an idea. Never tried it.

Attached is a sample application. You can reformat the variable before using it in the actions.
