Export Table box to Text File

Hi All,

I have to export a table box from qlikview to Text file.For that i am using the macros.

'-------------------------- 

' Export QC Chart Routine 

'------------------------- 

sub ExportChart   

   

output_dir="\\ntb\QlikView$\" 

Filename="DataFile.txt" 

set obj = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH01") 

obj.Export (output_dir & Filename) , "|" 

end sub  

This is working fine in My local machine.

But i have to export the file to another server machine,which i have  a UID and PWD through which i can login.

How can i achieve that?

I think i have to modify the script in such a way that the UID and PWd is specified.

Please suggest.

Thanks in adavance

Regards,

Reena

Create the shared folder on destination server machine. Now put this shared folder path in Macro (Output directory).

Hi,

I don't need to publish this dashboard.This qvw is only required for exporting the file to txt and placing the file in the destination.

Macros are supported in the browser. But not all functionality is available. Please read the QlikView Reference Manual and it will clarify things for you.

You can use this:

Add a shared network drive mapping.

Syntax

objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive(strLocalDrive, strRemoteShare, [persistent], [strUser], [strPassword])

Key

objNetwork     : A WScript.network object

strLocalDrive  : The drive letter (e.g. L:)

strRemoteShare : The UNC path to the remote drive

\\MyServer\MyPrinter (String value) 

persistent     : True/False - store the mapping persistently in the users

profile default = false 

strUser        :  The user name. (Optional)

strPassword    :  The password. (Optional)

Example

Dim objNetwork, strRemoteShare
Set objNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
strRemoteShare = "\\myserver\users"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "H:", strRemoteShare, False, "userid", "passw"

This is taken from:     ss64 . com /vb/mapnetworkdrive.html
