Syn key

Hi All,

I thought similar field names on 2 tables meant that QlikView would automatically concatenate. Can someone help me to understand the attached. I have similar field names, but tables have not been concatenated?

Thanks

H

The two tables needs to have the exact same number of fields with the exact same case sensitive field names. As soon as these conditions are not met Qlikview will create two tables and use the common fields for a synthetic key. Also the load statement should not be preceded by the noconcatenate keyword.

Hi,

No attachment.

Qlik is case sensitive.

Make sure you have same case(Capital or Small)

Hi Herbert,

Best practice is you to force Concatenate or NoConcatenate.

If you want to concat, then do:

Concatenate (tabletoconcatenate) load ...

If you don't want to concat, then do:

yournewtablename:

noconcatenate load ...

Hope it helps.

Marc.
