Cannot access object properties

Hi All,

I have a QVW file. I cannot access property of any of the object. How can I enable them?

The document probably has section access applied; and you are connecting as a USER, rather than as an ADMIN (Qlikview section access terms). The developer has limited access to scripts, reloads, properties to USER level users. You will need to be added to the section access as an ADMIN level user.

Did you open the file on server?

In that case, you can't edit the properties, you have to do a copy before.

If possible, open it as a file.

Hi

I am not opening the file on access file. I received a file from another developer, and I am unable to access properties of any object.

hi

I can access the script. If I comment the section access part and reload the application, will it work?
