Ok,
I'm trying to process data, where each "row" in my text file is JSONish formatted data as shown below (data renamed for security):
{"val":"dummy","val1":"dummy1","val2":"dummy2","val3":"dummy3"}
I have several issues trying to process this data into Qlikview.
1. The order of the fields is not consistent from row to row (I could see val1 first, or val3 first etc.)
2. The number of fields varies from record to record (I have rows than span from 12 fields to 30 fields)
3. The first part of the data before the : needs to become the Field name.
In my load script I've managed to separate the data into "fields" of "val":"dummy" etc., but now I'm stumped as to how to process it all into proper field names. I can't run a loop inside a load statement, and I've not found a way to apply a map that converts the field from "val1":"dummy1" to a field name of "val1" with a value of "dummy1". Any suggestions?
InitialLoad:
LOAD Autonumber(@2) AS Index, @2 AS Data, SubStringCount(@2,',') AS FieldCount
FROM
(txt, codepage is 1252, no labels, delimiter is '{', msq);
SplitFields1:
LOAD *,
Subfield(Data, ',', 1) AS FieldAA,
Subfield(Data, ',', 2) AS FieldAB,
Subfield(Data, ',', 3) AS FieldAC,
Subfield(Data, ',', 4) AS FieldAD,

If you display the data values as pivot table, you will get what is shown below:
No clue about your inability to open the qvw file. I am using 64-bit QV11.2 SR10 on Windows 8.1
The modified application with the pivot table is attached.
You said its a text file right???
May be this code:
Table:
LOAD @1,
@2,
@3,
@4,
@5,
@6,
@7
FROM
Community_166086.txt
(txt, codepage is 1252, no labels, delimiter is ',', msq);
Output in a text box object:
You may use generic load for this. For the input data
You can get the following result
The application and the data file to load are attached.
That's getting close to what I need. I think I misstated my critical need. Here's the format that I need to make it work properly:

Also, for some reason the license I have from my company does not allow me to open your QVW.
