How can I modify script for [..\

I'm trying to run previous qvd file that generated by another person.  There are a lot of [..\  in the code.

but from the script when I  run script like

from  [..\

the code it refer to 

A:\wronglocation\file.qvd

But the file is actually

B:\correctlocation\fileA.qvd

How can I tell qlikview to find "B\correctlocation"    when run script such as [..\

Thank you.

the ... will start where the .qvw is saved (wherever you opened the file).  Either move the file to B:\correctlocation\, move the QVDs or enter the full path.

If you dont want to change the path, I would suggest moving the QVD(s) to the same folder as the .qvw file

Hi

Try to load the file path again using relative path in script.

It will helps to resolve it.

Note:

Did you change the file path of that qvd now?

Hi Mayil,

I don't want to change " [..\  with in the script, there are a lot of them in there. And this file is shared with other people.

I'm thinking of some way  in qlikview set up ... sort of  global variable or something
