"How to discover your data in a fast dynamic way?"
When starting a new project. The first thing I want to do is get a feel for the data. Preferably in a fast and dynamic way. I've been using the "Advanced Data Discovery solution" for quite some time now to tackle this problem. The Advanced Data Discovery solution consists out of 4 dynamic list boxes and a dynamic table which comes in handy when modelling a project, checking data quality, testing the interaction between fields or exploring your data.

Benefits:
- Useful to check interaction between fields while creating your data model
- Dynamic Data Discovery
- Field statistics in a blink
- Fast data quality checks
- Dynamic list box
Cons:
- A script reload is required
- Dynamic table is limited to the first 40 fields of a table.
You can find more information about the "Advanced Data Discovery Solution" here.

Thanks for your patience.
Have fun Qlik'n, Koen
