Relative Path... do checking this is necessary

[amars]

Hi all,

     In one of my application I am using relative path inside my QVW File like $(Include=..\QV_Config\ConfigFile.txt); .

I wish to know is it compulsary to check the checkbox Relative Paths  inside Data from Files . Because anyways I am using my relative Path from my application File, is it necessary to check Relative Paths?

Thanks in advance......

Hi,

It is not necessary one

1. when you uncheck Relative Paths option.the select Table file path look like full path.

LOAD

A,
B
FROM
C:\Users\kumar.natarajan\Desktop\sheet.xlsx
(ooxml, no labels, table is Sheet1);

1. when you check Relative Paths option.the select Table file path look like Relative path.

LOAD

A,
B
FROM

sheet.xlsx

(ooxml, no labels, table is Sheet1);

But this is not necessary one.

Hi,

It will be complete path and Relative Path,

• Complete entire path of the file, for example

     E:\Apps\Data\YourData\SalesData.txt

• Relative path means, you need to give the path based on the current paths of your,

     For example your .qvw is  in the    E:\Apps\Dashboard\Your.QVW    ,

     Then for that Data file is in the E:\Apps\Data\YourData\SalesData.txt

     Relative path will be,

..\Data\YourData\SalesData.txt      

i.e    ..\, mean that go back one folder level back.

(Checking relative path is not necessary)
