SQL Script from .QVD file

[Anonymous]

It is possible to use SQL Script to extract information from .QVD files?

ExampleTable:

SELECT A, B, C

FROM

(qvd);

Something like this...

Thank you so much!

Not sure if you want to do just this:

ExampleTable:

LOAD A,

          B,

          C

FROM

(qvd);

No. A qvd file is simply a binary file with memory dump of a table from a qlikview or qlik sense document. It is not an SQL database management system. You load data from a qvd in Qlikview or Qlik Sense with the LOAD statement.

ExampleTable:

LOAD A, B, C

FROM

(qvd);

I'm going out on a limb with this post. If you are interested in reading information about the QVD file (metadata) not the contents of the QVD file itself then the link below should help. If not. . .what they said.
