expression in Document Title

Hi All,

I am trying to change the title of document through expression. However, it is not accepting the expession. I read somewhere that it is not possible to change the title of the document through expression? Is there any workaround for this? I have a landing page in Qlikview from where use can go to sub reports. I want to change the title of the document based on te reports that user selects.

Any help or hint will be appreciated

Regards

Arif

Hi Sushil and Vivek,

Thanks for the quick replies. You are right, the title can be changed there

Settings--->Document properties---->General------->Title

I dont want a hard coded values here. I want to change it dynamically

@Sushil: It is nothing complex, just want to change the title through expression and not hardcoded. The same expression I write in textbox or any chart or sheet title works well, but the document title is not accepting the expression. It just shows the expression as a hardcoded string, but does not show the value of the expression

Ok, lets make it simple. lets suppose I want to make the title of the attached qlikview document to be the maximum activity date, How can I change it.

As you can see, I have already written the expression in the attached document but it is not accepting it

I dont think there is anything wrong with the expression...there are no spaces....if this expression is working in the text box on the sheet, it should work in document title

I think the expression does not work in Document Title. My question was if there is any workaround for this. I uploaded the document so that if you suspect any mistake in my expression, you can check it yourself

I read somewhere that Document only accepts hardcoded text. I dont know if macro can help here
