List of stored qvd's

Hi All,

I want to include a list of all the QVD's stored on the front page of a transformation qvw so the users can easily see what QVD's that particular qvw created.

Is there an easy way of doing that without manually listing them?

Hi,

Store Qvd Name into Variable.

And then use that variable whenever required.

You could create a sub routine that stores as table into a qvd and also adds the table name or qvd name to a table so you can list the names of the created qvds.

QvdList:

Load '' as QvdName AutoGenerate(0);

Sub StoreAndList(TableName)

 

    Store $(TableName) into $(TableName).qvd ;

    Concatenate ( QvdList )

    Load '$(TableName)' as QvdName autogenerate(1);

End Sub

TableA:

load * from somewhere;

StoreAndList('TableA');

If you want to give the qvd's names different from the tables you could add another parameter to the sub and use the second parameter for the qvd name..
