Hello Arun,

Go to your QlikView icon, right click, properties, select "Maximized" in the Run: drop box. It will do.

You need to do that in any client you want to open Qlikview maximized.

Hi Miquel

Thanks for your reply.

This works with Shortcut only and its not very easy to tell customer to make shortcut first and use that only. Customer is using the applicaton directly from folder and there is no Run drop down there.

Pls suggest!!

The only way I know to do it is by modifying registry, browsing to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
and creating or editing
"MaximizeApps"=dword:00000001
This will affect any application you run in Windows XP.

Hope this helps.

Solution is superb Miguel but practically its not feasible as every window is getting opened in Maximized form...

I also searched the registry for QV to get some key that controls it but found nothing.

If any other workaround is there with anybody pls share with me.

Hi there,

I'm looking for the same thing. A parameter for the maximized window mode for qv launch would be great....

If anyone has an idea, please let me know.

You have to:

1. Change the properties of the Qv.exe to open in a maximized mode. Yoou must

To fix it all you need to do is right-click on the application shortcut and select Properties. Under the Shortcut tab change the dropdown next to Run to Maximized.

2. You have to create a Batch File. This Batch File will be open Qlikview.exe in maximized mode and after open a qlikview document. (In our case we have to open the document reloaded and export a sheet as a jpg image and we put it as a task in the SO server administrator task).

The code we used in the batch file:

START "My script" /Max "C:\Program Files\QlikView\Qv.exe" /l "C:\Test.qvw"
