Can a button control the variables in an input box?

[helen_pip]

Dear Qlikview user

I have an input box which lists 5 variables. I would like to know if a button can control the variables within the input box

P.s I am using the input box like a list box and have unticked  Enable edit expression dialog

Kind Regards

Helen

Hi Helen!

What exactly button should be able to do with variable.

Can you share some example?

Thanks

Hi,

what do you mean by button to control variables?

Increase or decrease their value?

If yes, this can be done as follows:

• Add a button
  • Add an action
    • Type External / Set variable
    • Basic Example to increase variable
      • MyVar
      • =$(MyVar) + 1
    • Basic Example to increase variable
      • MyVar
      • =$(MyVar) - 1

It is not an easy task to give a solution without understanding your issue.

Let me know if this helps, and if you need more info.

Kind regards,
