Qlik and SQL syntax

Hello to everyone,

If I didn't post on the right part of the forums, sorry for that, just tell me where to post it properly.

I'm a beginner in the use of Qlik, trying to use some SQL scripts already developped on other softwares, I'm a bit aware of some specifications about the syntax when I want to get my sql to work, but I can't get a query to work.

Due to some complexity in the data I use, I have to use queries looking like thoses (just the SQL below)

with

     Q1 as (select ... from ...),

     Q2 as (select ... from ....)

select

     ...

from

     ...

where

     ...

It seems that the syntax with the WITH sql keyword is not working on Qlik, could someone confirm this to me or explain if there is a specific syntax (I could put the Q1 and Q2 in the FROM of the main query, but I'd prefer not to).

Sincerely yours,

AL

In Qlikview this is the syntax

//Qlikview load part

LOAD

A,

B;

//SQL query part starts from here

SQL Select

A,

B

from table ;

QlikView usually doesn't interfere with the SQL code you try to send to your RDBMS, but your connection may choke on some advanced stuff. What DB make are you trying to query, and which connector are you using (OLE DB, ODBC?).

Also please post the entire script from your last attempt. It's extremely difficult to guess where the error originates if you post only bits 'n' pieces.
