Answer on the keyword "Binary"

Hi,

I'm new about QlikView.
I have just followed a course of Qv Pro and Developer and the trainer has explained that after the key "Binary" it's not possible to do anything on the loaded structure (No select, anything...)

Unfortunately he doesn't explained why don't it and to use the QVD file when we want to access to the data of another qv document and work on this data.

I want to understand exactly why it's not possible to do this with the Binary keyword.

Thanks a lot.

Yes, you can still manipulate data after loading from Binary source. May be I didn't understand you correctly. Please see enclosed 2 files. I have commented out the scripts. Do these files answer your question?

A binary load loads another QlikView document completely. If the document contains tables A and B you're able to access tables A and B in the script after doing a binary load of that document so that you can alter the tables or change what you like.

Ok, I have understood now.

So trainer's information was wrong...that's fine!

Thanks a lot
