where does data from example documents store ?

I'm trying to follow the document example

c:\Program Files\QlikView\Examples\Documents\Sales Compass.qvw

The code is pulling data from /excel and qvd file. something like this below.

FROM

[Database\Qompass_Mapping1.xlsx]

FROM

[Database\QVDs\User.qvd]

If I want to see the actual excel file or qvd, where is it exactly store on my drive ?

I've drive to search it but none of the folder named "Database" on my C: drive.

Thanks

Hello Jeannie,

These examples are pre-loaded with the Data. As per my knowledge, we do not get actual data files with those examples.

Thanks,

Angad

I can offer to see /trunk/Examples/ - dataiqtest - testeo de subir aplicaciones al repo de Google - Google Project Host.... There are some other databases from earler version QV.

The Data Input (Excel in this case) is not available.


On Golf Quest you don't have access to Edit Script source.


Don't use the samples.


Qlik must give full source like any other product.

You can always recreate the qvd's/csv's by creating a new file and binary load the QVW and use below script:

Binary 'Sales Compass.qvw';

FOR vCount = 0 to NoOfTables()-1

    LET vTableName = TableName($(vCount));

    STORE $(vTableName) INTO $(vTableName).qvd (qvd); // if you want csv use $(vTableName).csv(txt);

NEXT vCount

You won't get the source tables you need to reload the application (unless they load * everything) but at least you can check the tables in excel (if you use the csv option) and even use the data for other application.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Nuno

To get data, It works for almost QVW files (Golf Quest gives error on final).

Don't get Edit Script Source and I  think it can be blocked if used Js functions (module).

No. They are not.

They are installed with QS. Only qvw.
