How to display table with expressions of all variables in document

Hi!

I want to make some debug in my apps. I can show table of all variables in doc by using "Input Field" object. That table would show me two columns:

- Name of Variable

- calculated value of expression in Variable

But How to display expression that is in contents of Variables? I would better use chart wits some specific functions and expressions insted of macro.

You cannot add expressions to input fields, there is just the name and the current value.

I got a solution using a Straight table but it isn't pretty. The problem is that text expansion using $(vVarName) happens before the object is filled, just like Set Analysis.

See the document that uses Pick(Match))

Good luck,

Peter

Ah, so you need to know the names of the variables first? I was hoping that there'd be a way of scraping that data dynamically.

Hi.

You can use Input box. Just drug and drop all variables.

Another way is to export all the variables into spreadsheet using macro and load them back as a field.

Hope it helps.

There must be a method to list variables from their definitions using Macro's but I don't know if Macro's allow you to create or even add field/table content. Moverover, macro's may be a limiting factor for publication to the AccessPoint.

While it's not the most elegant soluton, the example works everywhere. I do hope that someone else posts a brighter view

There is now answer to my question. I think that thing must be like a new idea for QlikView NEXT.

hi,

Just add a new sheet object "Input box".

You'll see a list of available variables, add all variables then you'll have a table with the variable and their value (if it is an expression, you'll see it)
