In the script:

[TableName]:

LOAD

Category1,

Category2,

Category3,

.

.

.

Category1 & Category1 & Category1 as [Name]

;

sql

select * from table;

Hi Praveena

I think you're talking about Composite Key. You have to create this key in your Backend Script.

Your_Table_Name:

Load

category1,

category2,

category3,

category4,

category5,

category6,

category7,

category8,

category9,

category10,

category11,

category12,

category13,

category14,

category14&'/'&category13&'/'&category12    // Composite Key formation

From  ......./Tablename.qvd(qvd);

After adding category14&'/'&category13&'/'&category12     in your Backend Script, Reload the Application and see this Key Result.

Hi,

In this case better to use Rangesum() function to avoid possible mistakes.

[tblNm]:

LOAD

     Cat1,

     Cat2,

...

     Rangesum(Cat12,Cat13,Cat14) as SumCat

;

sql ...;
