Hi,

Is it OLEDB or ODBC in any case make sure to click on save password.

Try by recreating new connection string.

Save the database connection string in txt file and call the txt file in qlikview using

$(Include=write pathname where txt file is saved);

Then Reload the fetching data it doesn't ask again for Username and password

Thanks & Regards

Commenting Connection string and add this line

$(Include='C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Documents\Connection');

Try to again making new connection of ODBC then testing the connection if you get succed then cut the connection string from script and paste it in txt file and be sure when you calling the txt file in qlikview remove single quotes and write this way

On the top in main tab of script write this

$(Include=C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Documents\Connection);
