Hi,

Check this URLs

Execute a Macro inside load script

Example Macro:

Function CreateFolder()  

     Dim objFSO  

     Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") 

     objFSO.CreateFolder("C:\MacroTestFolder") 

End Function 



QlikView Load Script:

  1. LET CreateFolder = CreateFolder(); 

Regards,

Jagan.

Could you post your sample app that demonstrates the issue?

See Jagan's example.

Be aware that you cannot access interface elements at LOAD SCRIPT time. For example, if you want to export a chart, it will not work.

You can't access interface objects at LOAD SCRIPT time. You have to call your macro using a trigger after the script is run (like OnPostReload trigger)

As said by Lucian Cotea, you can't access UI object at load script. While you call a macro in the script, it is expected that the macro function would return a value whic is not the case with your macro.
