Try like this

Section Access;

LOAD * INLINE [

ACCESS, NTNAME,

ADMIN, domainname\User

ADMIN, domainname\user

ADMIN, domainname\user

];

The key with Section access is that all fields controlling section access must be UPPERCASE.

The field names must be uppercase and the data must be uppercase. Also if you are using field restrictions in section access the restriction field names must be uppercase!

Hi,

thanks . It's not working. would it be possible if I remove inherit NTFS folder permissions by right click document Properties->Security for Users(domainname\users) and if I add required User. will this work?

Hi Amelia,

one thing you could try is to remove that users's windows permissions on the document.

In Windows Explorer browse to the files in question. Then right click, select 'Properties', then in the 'Security' tab make sure the user is not in the access control list.

If the user is a member of a QlikView users group which has access, you could try adding the user to the access control list, but make sure that all priveliges are set to 'Deny'.

Hope this helps.
