82.4 VBScript functions
VBScript functions defined in the module of a QlikView document will generally work well on QlikView
Server. General functionality limitations as defined in the previous section apply.
82.5 Server Side Export
It is possible to export the content of any chart to a text file on the server by using a Macro connected to a
Button. This feature has to be added in the QlikView document and then the macro can be executed from
the QlikView Server directly in the web browser.
In the QlikView document QWT.qvw provided on the CD, you find a sheet called “Server Side Export”. As
the button is clicked, the content of the Straight Table CH20 can be exported as a text file to the server directory
for QlikView Server. The exported data can then easily be read into Excel or other programs.
Below you find a sample of VB Script code used in the Edit Module in QlikView for making the export possible.
The macro is then connected to a trigger, in the case of this example, a button.
