If the user is on the AccessPoint then a macro is unlikely to work!

The macro is working like a charm via Accesspoint.

I'm actually running an EDX command to reload/republish.

(I was surprised to see it work but it did

Maybe you could try to query the User / Computername / DOMAIN / IP or similar to detect this.

I have not tried it myself, but in the theory, you should be able to retrieve the value from the QlikView System Function "ClientPlatform()".

If you are running in Desktop mode, this will return null, otherwise it will return Browser.Firefox, Mobile.iPhone etc.

It will be fair to assume,that you have accessed a document through the accesspoint, if you are using one of these browsers 🙂
