Hi there folks..
I have been doing some reading in Qlikview but couldn't find the QV reload schedule info..
So lets say that I have a QVD\QVW file and I want to schedule a nightly reload.
From what I know, the QVD file is subjected to the behavior of the QVW file, so my guess is that this schedule is defined in the QVW file.
Since I have two cases - a stand alone QVW file (no QVD's) and on the other hand - a QVW file with QVD's as its source, my question is how do i shcedule a specific (automated), "behind the scene" Reload?
thanks,
Evya
In QMC > Documents > Source Documents > My.QVW - you should see this , click it and it shoudl allow you to create a task.
If you want to schedule a QVD file:
QMC > System > Supporting Tasks > QVD Creation > and you'll need to go through the setup.
I'm totally new to thsi whole QlikView thing so there may be easier/better answers out there.

Hi there td3wiremn and thanks for the quick answer!
Im sorry about my next question, but what is QMC? and how do i get to this path??
thanks..
No apologies requied
QMC = QlikView Management Console (on QlikView Server)
I guess I should have asked this question first, are you using QlikView Server or just just the QlikView Developer application? If you're just using the developer tools I don't know of any way to automatically script and load data on a schedule but maybe someone else can chime in?
I hope that helps.
Thanks again td3wireman..
Unfortunately im still not familiar with QV server software.
I will have to leave this question unanswered(in the meanwhile) just for the possibility that someone will be able to help with scheduling a timed reload through QV developer application\QV Desktop (btw - are these 2 names refer to the same thing software?)..
Appreciate it anyways!

Hi
If you are not using a server, you can create a batch file and schedule that with any scheduling software (such as the Scheduled Tasks applet in Windows).
The syntax for the reload in your batch file is like this:
c:\Program Files\Qlikview\qv.exe /R MyQlikviewFile.qvw
Obviously, make sure the path to the qv.exe and the model are correct for your machine. Check "command line" in the reference manual for more.
Hope that helps
