Load a series of csv files?

Hello Experts,

All my data files are in csv format with all the same field names and number of columns, and these data files are generated daily.

The question is: I am going to load all 31 files (file names are in sequence) for Oct 2013, can I use a single command line or one set of scripts to load all files or Do I have to load these 31 files one by one?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!

Hi Frank,

As long as all files have same format and column names you can use *.csv in place of the FileName.

Thanks....

Qlikview loads as many files as is present in the source. I personnaly load thousands of files using the same technique. There is no restriction on the number of files. Thanks...
