Can I schedule running a script in desktop mode?

I develop my apps on my desktop. I want to have the apps using up-to-date data.

Any suggestions for, actually examples of, automating running the QV load scripts that load data from the database into the qvd's that my end user apps use?

I want to do this because some of these load scripts take 30 minutes or so and I don't want to have to start them manually and then wait. I want to do the same thing locally that happens on the server where there is a schedule that runs scripts so that my web based apps on the server are always up to date in the morning.

Hi John,

You can create a .bat file to run the command line reload of the QVW and then use Windows Task Scheduler to configure a reload schedule. Something like C:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe" /r

There should be plenty of threads on community with more information on performing reload via command line, so search away.

Based upon your question it seems that your organization has QlikView Server, correct? Why not use it to schedule the reload of QVWs?

Hope this helps
