how can I have an object that does not associate with other objects

[#1]

I want to have a list object that allows me to trigger an action but does not associate (filter) the other objects. Is that possible?

thanks!

I assume you mean a table, what you are talking about is very simple just load a single column table and make sure the field name does not match any of the other fields, then Qlikview will not create any associations to the table.

As far as triggers go I think you will not be able to use the Change event because the change event occurs when selections are made on items that are associated with the field but it should work for you.

Thanks

But the field is indeed already available in another obejct. So it is already filtered down selection. I want to show all the available options.

Unless there is no association with your current selections you will not be able to show a list box with the same field in it without that field being sensitive to the selections of associated objects.

You will have to load the distinct values from the field you are talking about into a new table with a totally new field name.
