Nprinting Dynamic Name with variables

[CVR]

Dear Qlik Experts,

I want to give a dynamic name to on-demand word docx and I am using a QV variable to do that. The variable gives names based on the selection i,e if i select "APPLE"  on a dashboard that exact word will reflect on the file name. I have an issue here, if i select "SWEET APPLE "  I am getting the file name as SWEET+APPLE. I mean if there is a space between two words I am getting '+' symbol between two words. Is there anyway I can solve this?

Thanks in advance,

Arjun Reddy

Just follow my steps. First, you need to check what is the variable value. I just created sample file and tested for you. See below snapshots. It is working fine and I don't find any issue.

Can you please share the QVW? I am getting Sweet+Apple everytime. Just want to check where I am going wrong?

[tamilarasu]

Here you go.

I am getting the same thing and I ran the report on access point, local and also preview but still I am having the same issue

[tamilarasu]

That is strange. I have no idea. Same qvw file but getting different file names.

rpc Any idea? Thanks

Hi,

Try to remove the "+" symbol.

Hi,

its happening due to spaces in the string and there for filename doesnt allow to have it that way + sybmol is appended by default. i will recommend to replace the space with some other charcter like "_" or no spaces.

replace(vFilename,' ','_') or eplace(vFilename,' ','')

I used replace and I am getting SWEET_APPLE at least this is acceptable but there are almost symbols like

!

"

#

$

%

&

'

(

)

*

+

,

-

.

for all these I am getting HTML Codes respectively which is anyway not confined to NPrinting only it is same for any URL over the web. Now I have to replace all these symbols in my data to _?

In my opinion special characters should always be avoided. They often generate issues and many times in a non predictable point.

Hi Ruggero Piccoli, I am not using any special characters for file name. I am just taking the selected field from the dashboard and each field has different symbols.
