Open Qlikview Document through External program event.

Hi All,

I am trying to create an external program task which will open the dashboard and reload the QVW and then there is a post reload macro that will generate PDF files based on the list of values in a field.

The above said statement works just fine when its done manually. Meaning running the below command with a batch file. But when the same command is used in the Command line area of the external program it does not work.

Can someone tell me what is it that i am doing wrong here.

Below is my command line entry.

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\QV.EXE" /nosecurity /r %E:\repo\Source\Client\DashboardName.qvw%

The basic requirement is to RUN the macro after the reload. But the post reload action does not seem to run the macro after reload. So i am trying to execute it with a local run with qv.exe as doing the same thing locally works just fine on the server itself.

Thanks,

Aadil
