Table Not populating

[anonymous1]

hi, 

i have the following table:

FIRST_TABLE:
LOAD

PRODUCT_KEY,
COUNTRY,

STORE,
Date(MONTH, 'DD-MMM-YYYY') as MONTH,
num(AMOUNT) as AMOUNT,
'' as FLAG

FROM
[C:\sales_amount.qvd]
(qvd);

I need to create a new table that has all the PRODUCT_KEYS ending in 'A' from FIRST_TABLE and the FLAG column will now be populated with '1'.

Temp_AllCountries:
LOAD
Chr(39) & Concat(DISTINCT COUNTRY, Chr(39) & ',' & Chr(39)) & Chr(39) as ALL_COUNTRIES
resident FIRST_TABLE;

Let vAllCountries = FieldValue('ALL_COUNTRIES', 1);

DROP TABLE Temp_AllCountries;

for each vCountry in '$(vAllCountries)'

NEW_TABLE:
LOAD

PRODUCT_KEY as Product_Key,
COUNTRY as Country,

STORE as Store,
Date(MONTH, 'DD-MMM-YYYY') as Month,
num(AMOUNT) as Amount,
1 as Flag

resident FIRST_TABLE
where right(PRODUCT_KEY, 1) = 'A'
and COUNTRY = '$(vCountry)';

NEXT

....

so my problem is that NEW_TABLE isn't populating.  any ideas why?

Which errors do you see when debugging the script? Do the variables populate correctly and loop through every possible value?

What if you do the load manually to make sure that filters in WHERE apply correctly?

That code looks very familiar, did you check for missing quotes, commas, etc.?

there are no errors, and the variable populates correctly. i can also confirm the WHERE clause works aswell.  i assumed the loop was the problem? im very new to QlikView so i cant see what it is Ive done wrong

Try cleaning spaces at the end of product_key in your where clause. Something like this:

resident FIRST_TABLE
where right(rtrim(PRODUCT_KEY), 1) = 'A'
and COUNTRY = '$(vCountry)';

Hope it helps.
