Macro Reference AccessPoint Client Type

[mattydolan]

I have a number of QlikView dashboards which use VB-macros which are shared via AccessPoint to users.

In order for their experience to be best, they need to use the IE Plugin, however it's not possible to disable the Ajax plugin on AccessPoint to force users into using the IE Plugin.

I want to create a macro which upon upon will display the method by which the user is connecting to the QVW.

Is there a session object I can refer to which stores the connection "type" (whether the user has connected via AccessPoint Ajax, IEPlugin or via the Desktop directly?

Thanks in advance,

(We are going to move away from Macros eventually....but not right now)

Try the ClientPlatform() function.

Couldn't you set this within the qmc (I do this force in the opposite direction):

Thanks Marcus,

I could have sworn I tried to do this - but was advised it may result in uncertain behaviour if they don't have the IE Plugin installed..
