OCX with .Net ObjectId definition

[#1]

hi,

We're trying to work with the QlikView OCX COM object embedded in .Net and we've encountered a few problems:

1. We'd like to define the ObjectId in the code. We've tried the following code :

     axQlikObj1.ObjectID = "Document\\CH02";       

     axQlikObj2.ObjectID = "Document\\LB119";

after the intializeComponenets() method. When the window is displayed it displays the qvw we've defined (using OpenDocument) but not the specific object.

2. We'd like to define the QV selections in the code rather than select them on screen (the selections would be done in our .Net wrapper and not through QV itself). We haven't been able to locate the right function to use.

PLEASE HELP US

thanx
