Qlikview Join , scenario

[sujit_nath]

 I have two tables in a way that Table 1 has columns A,B,C,D,E and Table 2 has Columns A,Q,R,S,T. In Qlikview table viewer, they are connected on Column A (Not join). Now I have got a third table, Table 3 with column B and Q. I want to show the data in the dashboard which would match B and Q combination from table 3.

How should I achieve that? I somehow implemented that using lot of joins and drops, but is there an easy way? How should I implement this with right join?

Hi,

you need to join the tables because if you are loading them without you will get a circular reference.

What kind of join (left, right, inner outer) is depending on which datas you want. Is there a master table?

if table 3 has only B and Q you can go like

Load * from Table3;
left join Load * from Table 2;
left join Load * from Table 1;

EDIT: didnt see that you want to keep Table 1 and 2 seperate

3: Load * from Table 3;
2: Load * from Table 2 where exists(Q);
1: Load B,C,D,E from Table 1 where exists(A) AND exists(B);

The only place I could point you to try to find some other ideas is the Design Blog area, here is the base URL, you can search yourself, as I was not exactly sure what you needed on this one, but I suspect you can find some posts that may be of some help to you.  I generally start with a single term, see what pops up and then use other words from that first search to narrow things down etc.
