No, I'm running PE QlikView 11.20 SR4, but that shouldn't make any difference. See below.

Please check whether editing macros is enabled in your currently opened document. Go to Settings->Document Properties->Security.

If everything checks out fine, there may be something wrong with your installation.

Best,

Hi

I don't know if macros work in PE. But try the shortcut Ctrl+M to open the dialog.

in QlikView Desktop PE, first open an existing document or create a new one. Then press Ctrl-M or select Tools->Edit Module... from the menu bar.

Macros are embedded in the current document. No document open, no macros.

Good luck,

Peter

in PE, I have document open, Tools contains no Open Module option. CTRL M shortcut also not working.

Would you confirm what you say is for PE, QlikView 11 version ?

Thanks
