Update a table in qlikview with values from a spreadsheet

[#1]

Hi,

I'm trying to work out the best way to update a table in qlikview with values from a spreadsheet.

I have a table called Data:

ID        MonthYear        Value

1          Apr 2012          10

1          May 2012         13

1          Jun 2012           9

2          Apr 2012          12

2          May 2012         18

2          Jun 2012           2

3          Apr 2012          32

3          May 2012         12

3          Jun 2012           1

I also have a spreadsheet called Amendments:

ID          MonthYear          Value

1           May 2012            10

1          Jun 2012               8

2          Apr 2012              20

3          Jun 2012              15

I want to import the spreadsheet table and overight the values in the Data table.

This sis just an example, i actually need to this to 1000s of rows.

Cheers

Simon

What could be your end result in above table?

You need to import your file in the script by this way

Load *, ID&MonthYear as Key Inline

Concatenate
