Hello!

You can use a document trigger "OnOpen". The trigger must run a macro which will open your url. There were topic, maybe you'll find something usefull:

Hi,

My problem is to open a url without openning a QlikView application ^^, juste the soft.

Like this :

To open a dashboard using URL, you have to publish the dashboard in a server.

What you are showing is a Qlikview desktop application (just for development purpose)

Nop, I just want to open a web page (like sharepoint) when the user is openning a QlikView desktop ^^

[Siva_Sankar]

AFAIK, not possible. But you can create a button and pass URL through the button using actions.

Hi,

We used QlikView desktop to connecte to our QlikView Server.

We want to show informations about our server (or news, ...) when user open a instance of QlikView Desktop, like

In this example it's Planner, but we can imagine show an other page.

It is not possible to change the default welcome page in the QlikView Desktop client - at least, that's the response I got from my local QlikView partner when I asked. The only alternative to using it is to have a blank page (disabling the welcome page) or link users directly to a QVW.

Insofar as displaying web content in a QVW - as far as I know, this is also not possible when using the desktop client, even when set to Webview.

If you want to display content from Sharepoint in a QVW, that's doable - you would have to read the welcome page from your Sharepoint site as part of your load script, and format the result in QlikView.
