Include statement using UNC syntax to load from different machine

[#1]

Hi all,

i am encountering a problem with the include statement.

Due to our hosting setup for server distributed applications we have the requirement to manually adjust parameters in the QV applications on the server.

What i wanted to do is having a script file located on our group network drive where the application owner can adjust parameters which are used in the QVW located on the server.

The include statement i wrote is like:

$(Iinclude='\\groupnetworkdrivename\config\parameters.txt')

But it seems that the include can not handle UNC located sources and does not read the parameters.txt from the groupnetwork drive.

Any ideas?

UNC works for me.

Have you tried correcting the typo in include and removing the single quotes?

Hi

I use UNCs in include statements like this:

$(Include=\\myserver\Scripts\helpsheet.include.qvs);

Using V11.0 SR2, but it worked in V10 as well.

It does work, as below. I rather use "Must_include" because it generates error if the file is not found, what makes me check

///$tab Main
SET ThousandSep='.';
SET DecimalSep=',';
SET MoneyThousandSep='.';
SET MoneyDecimalSep=',';
SET MoneyFormat='R$ #.##0,00;-R$ #.##0,00';
SET TimeFormat='hh:mm:ss';
SET DateFormat='DD/MM/YYYY';
SET TimestampFormat='DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss[.fff]';
SET MonthNames='jan;fev;mar;abr;mai;jun;jul;ago;set;out;nov;dez';
SET DayNames='seg;ter;qua;qui;sex;sáb;dom';
$(Include=\\srvswbbi\Qlikview\Includes\Qvc.qvs);

Hi,

thanks for the hints. I am also still investigating. Just wanted to be sure if this might be a general problem or not.

Also removing the quotes did not help to solve the problem.

Cheers

Did you remove the extra i n include as well (or was that just a copy and paste thing)?

The typo was just a copy and paste thing.

Managed to get it running. There was a space in the string that caused the problem.

Thanks again for the hints. This reduced the potential errors i had to look after.

Cheers
