Execute Command for QV.EXE without saving.

[#1]

Hi Guys,

I'm currently using "Execute" command:

Execute "C:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe" /r "D:\Test\Sorter.qvw"

The script above opens the report Sorter.qvw, reload, save and the close.

Is it possible that I just open the Sorter.qvw, reload and close without saving the file? If yes how.

Thanks.

He,

I haven't figured out to avoid the saving part.

But what you can do is first copy and rename the file via a batch file. And then reload this new file and after wards delete it.

Kind of clever but it can be a workaround... thanks for reply...

It's an interesting question that I don't have a ready answer for. Can you explain why you would want to reload without saving?

There are times that same file is being access by other user or is hanging somewhere else, hence when its time for the file to be save it will generate and sharing violation error.

what it actually does is just create a QVD, something like this

inside my qvw:

load table and save to table.qvd;   (- this qvd is process by external qvw then generates several other qvd.load table)

Execute external qvw

load table from newly created qvd by external qvw.

thanks Rob.
