I am developing a QlikView application that needs a specific data load, only when a button is pressed. My application contains a load script that loads the normal data and I need to load some extra data, only needed if a button is pressed.
How do I execute a specific load script after pressing a button?
QlikView cannot execute split loads. Probably because a data model has to be created in one big sweep, and when this is done, the model and the data in it becomes immutable. Also keep in mind that in QV Desktop a reload only looks like being initiated by the end-user, but in the Server environment the two steps are separated and handled by different services without any means of communication. This is the basic architecture of QlikView.
However, there may be a few workarounds which you can evaluate on futness for your purpose:

Hi Mark! You can have a script estructure as follows:
Normal Load of data
IF vMode = 1 then
Load extra data
ENDIF
More normal load of data if needed
And you should configure the button adding 3 actions:
1.- Set variable vMode to value 1
2.- Execute the scrip
3.- Set variable vMode to value 0
If the extra data is consistent with your data model then this should work. Hope it helps!
