Qlikview removing data in SELECT statement

I have a problem with loading data from one of our databases.

I have a table that contains the following values:

ITEM     BATCH

1090     15 17 80

1090     151780

1090     197815

When I load the data into qlikview like this:

ItemBatches_temp:

SELECT

     ITEM,

     BATCH

FROM

     ITBATABLE;

...I end up with a table containing only this:

ITEM     BATCH

1090     151780

1090     197815

This is a problem since "15 17 80" and "151780" are both unique batches which need to be tracked. I need all the values, but I don't know how to get them both. Anyone run into this before?

When I extract data outside of qlikview with the same SQL it returns with all the batches.

Try forcing BATCH to be loaded as text and not as numeric, maybe something like this :

ItemBatches_temp:

load

     ITEM,

     text(BATCH)     as     BATCH

;

SELECT

     ITEM,

     BATCH

FROM

     ITBATABLE;

Hi,

Try like this using Text()

ItemBatches_temp:

LOAD

ITEM,

Text(BATCH) AS BATCH;

SELECT

     ITEM,

     BATCH

FROM

     ITBATABLE;

Hope this helps you.

Regards,

Jagan.
