Share selection between documents

[#1]

If do filter of a field in a document go to another document in QlikView.

That is, I have two QlikView documents and the two have a common field, if I make a selection in a field of one of the documents in a simple way I can pass this selection to another document.

Thanks a lot.

If you are on version 9.00 or above, you can use Actions to open the second document, and configure it to apply the same selections.

The only other way, that I can think of, would be to create a bookmark in one document, then export it and then import it into the second document - all via macro. Quite complex... Action would be much easier...

Hi,

if you use your document 1 as source for document 2 you can set some variables by actions and how you load document 1 in document 2 you have the same variables and you can use these variables to set your fields.

Pekalab,

1. Create a new button

2. Add an Action

3. Find an action called "Open QlikView Document" (hint: it's in the section "External")

4. Enter the name of your second document.

5. Check the checkbox "Transfer State" to pass the selections over.

you are done!
