Hi,
I'm John and I recently purchased this book to learn how to use Qlikview. I ran into an issue. In chapter 2 page 40-42 it wants you to structure the script a certain way to add multiple tabs and tables. Below is the five tabs I have altogether and the script for each of these tables. When I hit control T to bring up the table viewer it's supposed to look like the picture on page 42. But I don't have any connectors. It's just the Main Data tab. Can someone help?

Did you reload the script after adding new tables?
Do you have all the qvd files in the path mentioned?
Ok that helped me get 5 out of the 7 but I'm still missing Aircraft groups and Distance groups. Any thoughts? Thanks for the help.
I'm not sure what you mean. I'm very new and trying to work through this book by myself. I did what the last commenter said and reloaded the script but that only gave me 5 of the 7 tables. Still missing Aircraft groups and Distance groups.
I mean the script when it runs, it is trying to access the qvd files from a path location. Like you mentioned.
[Aircraft Groups]:
LOAD [%Aircraft Group ID],
[Aircraft Group]
FROM
[..\Data Files\QVDs\Aircraft Groups.qvd]
(qvd); -> This is the path where this QVD file is trying to read. So do you have that qvd file in this path?
Try reloading script again and check the execution progress window, it should show missing table name somewhere there and information of no of rows loaded, if not, then you might have problem in accessing those qvd files.
Can you run the script in debug mode like open edit script and click on debug and keep clicking on step button and see if you find any rows not reading from the tables
I'm not sure how to check the execution progress window. The QVD files are from the website the book came from. Still not working.
There is nothing after (qvd); for any of the files but 5 of them worked and 2 didn't. Still can't figure it out.
