Ways of exploring QlikView Load Script programmatically?

Good time of the day!

What do you think the best way to explore loading script of QlikView application systemically?

I would like to be able to access and parse Load Script from custom application outside of QlikView. What would be my best option for performing the task? Is there an API for doing this type of work?

Thanks!

You could sort the Load Script in your custom application outside of QlikView, by the way what is it / why do you wish to use it ?

Then save it a *.qvs QlikView script file.

Finally in your QlikView script include it by using the Include() command.

Best Regards,     Bill

Thank you Bill. I think that would work just fine for me. What I am trying to accomplish is to build a metadata layer by reading load script and parsing out references to QVDs and SQL Server objects. There are quite a few applications so I would prefer to do that systematically, rather than by hand.

Thanks for your help,
