HI

This is one of the example for retrieve all files in folder by using for loop in script

Sub loadfiles(Files)

  For Each file in FileList('$(Files)' & '\*.*');

  TestLoad:

  LOAD '$(file)' AS FilePath,

  if(Len(SubField('$(file)','.',-1)) < 8,SubField('$(file)','.',-1),'No Extension') AS FileExtension,

  FileSize('$(file)') AS FileSize,SubField('$(file)','\',SubStringCount('$(file)','\')+1) As FileName,

  FileTime('$(file)') AS FileTime AutoGenerate 1;

  NEXT file;

  For Each subdir in DirList('$(Files)' & '\*');

  CALL subFunction('$(subdir)')

  NEXT subdir;

End Sub

SUB subFunction(Subdir)

  For Each sub in DirList('$(Subdir)')

  CALL loadfiles('$(sub)')

  NEXT sub;

End Sub

Call loadfiles('E:\Qlikview -11')

Drop Tables "*";

Thanks & Regards, Mayil Vahanan R
