Search document (pdf) on pc

Hello,

I have in qlikview some numbers. This numbers are also the names of some pdf-documents on my pc.

Now I want to make a link in QV by every number. If I click on a number, for example 1098, than opened that pdf-document 1098 on my pc.

Is this possible with QV or not?

If you could build a complete path to the pdf in a chart/textbox/listbox interpretet as link it should work. You need a pattern from: mainpath\folder\file.pdf - maybe somethink like this:

= '\\YourServer\d$\MainFolder\' & getpossiblevalue(SubFolder) & '\' & getselectedvalue(YourNumber) & '.pdf'

Whereas SubFolder and YourNumber are connected - it will be depend on the deep from your filesystem. And of course you need te proper access rights to these files.
