Thanks for sharing shankarece‌ .  There is a more comprehensive example of QlikView button usage here: QlikView App: At The Qlik Of A Button - should you wish to take a look.

Steve,

Yes, I knew that link. Since Gautham specifically asked about variabled in text box, I pointed the other qlikview app.

I am a big fan and follower of your quickintelligence blog too.
