Can some one please let me know how to get to this dialog in Qlikview document?
I am reading the book Qlikview for Developers cookbook, page 228. But could not figure out. The exact sentence there is
Create a new QlikView document. Set the Database drop-down list to OLEDB and click
on Connect.
In Qlikview Press control+E ... you will see it in the bottom of the newly opened window (script window)
First open the script
File Menu > Edit Script
At the bottom of this screen is the data tab, underneath database, select OLE DB from the drop down and press connect.

Is it possible to export records from SQL directly to a drop down data validation list?
I want to export data directly to the list without having to actually have the data saved within a sheet/table etc.
Step 1: Add a query data connection
If you do not have an existing query data connection that you can use on your form template, follow these steps to add a secondary data connection to your form template that queries data. If your form template already has a secondary data connection that you can use, you can skip this section and go to Step 2: Configure the control.
On the Tools menu, click Data Connections.
In the Data Connections dialog box, click Add.
In the Data Connection Wizard, click Create a new connection to, click Receive data, and then click Next.
On the next page of the wizard, click Database (Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft Office Access only), and then click Next.
On the next page of the wizard, click Select Database.
In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source.
On the next page of the wizard, in the What kind of data source do you want to connect to list, click Microsoft SQL Server and then click Next.
In the Server name box, type the name of the server that contains the SQL Server database.
Under Log on credentials, do one of the following:
If the database determines who has access based on the credentials used in a Microsoft Windows network, click Use Windows Authentication.
If the database determines who has access based on a specified user name and password that you get from the database administrator, click Use the following User Name and Password, and then type your user name and password in the User Name and Password boxes.
Click Next.
In the Select the database that contains the data you want list, click the name of the database that you want to use, click Connect to a specific table, click the name of the primary table, and then click Next.
On the next page of the wizard, in the File Name box, type a name for the file that stores the data connection information, and then click Finish to save these settings.
If you plan to use other tables in the query data connection, you can add the other tables in this page of the wizard.
Add other tables
Click Add Table.
In the Add Table or Query dialog box, click the name of the child table, and then click Next. InfoPath attempts to set the relationships by matching field names in both tables. If you do not want to use the suggested relationship, select the relationship, and then click Remove Relationship. To add a relationship, click Add Relationship. In the Add Relationship dialog box, click the name of each related field in the respective column, and then click OK.
Click Finish.
To add additional child tables, repeat these steps.
Click Next.
To store the results of the query with the form template, select the Store a copy of the data in the form template check box. Selecting this check box stores the query results in the form template. Becuase the data is stored in the form template. the data is available in the forms that users fill out, even if their computers are not connected to a network.
Security Note: Selecting this check box stores the query results in the form template. Because the data is stored in the form template, it is available in the forms that users fill out, even if their computers are not connected to a network. If you are getting sensitive data from this data connection, you may want to disable this feature to help protect the data in case the computer is lost or stolen.
Click Next.
On the next page of the wizard, type a descriptive name for this secondary data connection. If you want the form to automatically receive data when the form is opened, select the Automatically retrieve data when form is opened check box.
Step 2: Configure the control
If the form template has multiple views, click View name on the View menu to go to the view with the control where you want to display the data from the secondary data source.
Double-click the list box, drop-down list box, or combo box control that you want to populate.
Click the Data tab.
Under List box entries, click Look up values from an external data source.
In the Data Source list, click the data source that you want to use.
Click Select XPath Data Source button next to the Entries box.
In the Select a Field or Group dialog box, specify what data will be shown to the user and what data will be submitted to the external data source by doing one of the following.
Specify that the data the user will see is the same data the user will submit
Click a field, and then click OK.
Specify that the data the user will see is different from the data that the user will submit
Note: In this scenario, the data that the user will see is from one of the fields in the group, and the data that the user will submit is in another field in the same group.
Click a group, and then click OK.
In the Control Properties dialog box, click Select XPath Data Source button next to the Value box.
In the Select a Field or Group dialog box, click a field that contains the data that the user will submit to the external data source, and then click OK.
In the Control Properties dialog box, click Select XPath Data Source button next to the Display name box.
In the Select a Field or Group dialog box, click a field that contains the data that will appear in the control, and then click OK.
If the field in the Display name box has values with similar display names, and you want to display only unique names, select the Show only entries with unique display names check box.
I am trying to use the current versions of SQL Server Management Studio with Microsoft SQL Server Express (64-bit) to create a Stored procedure.
I’m following the https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345415.aspx guideline.
When I get to step 3 and right-click on “Stored Procedures” the popup menu I am presented with does not include the “New Stored Procedure” option. Instead, at the top of the list of options that are presented is the option “Stored procedure…” When I click on this I get the ASCI text block “Template Generated from Template Explorer” displayed.
What I was expecting was that the “Specify Values for Template Parameters” Query Editor Pane would have been displayed and that the data I entered into it would have been reflected in the “Template generated from Template Explorer” text block which would have been displayed next.
Can anyone tell me why the “Specify Values for Template Parameters” Query Editor Pane isn’t being displayed?
You can call that dialog by using the key combination Ctrl-Shift-M.
Most likely they are not showing this dialog automatically anymore, in order to let the user change the script first and then call the dialog when ready.
New query tab in CTRL+K,CTRL+X, you can use the combination.
On my RDLC page, the "Report Data" window shows a custom dataset that it pulls fields from to display. I've modified this DataSet with some additional tables. However, these tables aren't shown and therefore I'm unable to select them for use in expressions (in the Expression window, under Datasets, there are only the tables that were originally there, not the additional tables I've added).
Refreshing the data source doesn't do anything, and if I right-click on it and select "New Dataset", I'm unable to select the parent data source (it doesn't appear in the drop down list). What I mean is, if the data source is called "MyDataSet", and under that are other DataSets, if I right-click and go to "Add Dataset", it brings up the dialog box but "MyDataSet" is not in the list of available Data sources, even though I'm specifically saying I want to add a datatable to that data source. The other, existing, datatables list it under the data source, but new ones do not.
How do I refresh the data source so I can access these new tables in my report?
This is an old question, but I was having this problem too and I'll mention my answer for future googlers.
In the Report Data Window (which automatically appears for me when I am editing a .rdlc file), I had to Refresh my Dataset (same name as the DataSetName in the Tablix in my .rdlc Report), and then that updated the XML of the .rdlc file. The new fields are then available to me.
I have the same problem with Visual Studio 2010 Premium. You must do this step:
Re-build the project that contain your Business Object
Restart Visual Studio
Refresh your DataSet (Report Data --> Right click on DataSet --> Refresh).
I managed to get this working (for SSRS in C# using a Dataset that points to a Stored Procedure) by:
hitting Shift+Alt+D (which opens the "Data Sources" window)
In Data Sources, select/click the table you want to update
At the top of the window there are icons (I'm using VS2012). The 2nd from the right is "Configure Data Source" - click it and it will open a new wizard window that will appear to be refreshing everything.
UN-check the column that is no longer applicable and/or check the new column (if the values aren't already checked/unchecked).
Go back to your "Report Data" window (Ctrl+Alt+D) and right-click on your Dataset and then click "Refresh".
All the columns should be updated at that point.
Have you tried rebuilding your project? I had to do this after changing any business object.
I had this issue for hours on VS-2008. Tried everything and at the end what worked was just to close and open it VS again.
I can confirm that just closing the solution and reopening it, with later refreshing the DataSet from Report Data window worked for me.
Seems like there is no need to restart VS.
I got the same issue in visual studio 2012. I solved it, here is the steps,
Press Ctrl + Q and type Report Data (If No Report Data window available)
Expand Data Source node to find the data set (I have used Data Set)
Right click on the Data set and select Refresh (Simply refresh the data source)
Delete the dataset and again add it with ur query or usp...
If you are using a database source the likely culprit is that you didn't create the query with select *. Without the * the query will always be static and new fields won't appear. HTH
For visual studio 2010
Open Your Data Set (.xsd file)
Right click on data set click on configure
Click on Next Next than finish
On your dataset click refresh than Changes willbe display.
Sounds like same issue is happening on VS2019. I could resolve the issue by only restarting Visual Studio, nothing else worked!
This is the only solution worked for me.
After updating the DataSource properly, open the .rdlc file in NotePad and add the newly added Field manually. Then it will be available to use in the report.
Had the same in VS2019 using an object datasource, right click and refresh on the dataset in the Report Data window had no effect until I changed the build configuration from x64 to Any CPU, then it worked as expected. Once it updated changed the build back and all was well - not at all flakey!
As ChanthJ said -
It is the only solution worked for me.
After updating the DataSource properly, open the .rdlc file in NotePad and add the newly added Field manually. Then it will be available to use in the report.
steps
Assuming you Data source is fed by stored procedures, the following worked for me (On Visual Studio 2017): -
Make the necessary changes in the source stored procedure in the Database(new Field Names etc.).
Double click the .XSD file from the Solution Explorer to open it
Delete the associated Data Table / Table Adapter.
Add the Table Adapter back into the .XSD file (the changes will be reflected)
Save and close the .XSD
Open the .rdlc report designer.
Press "ctrl+Alt+D" or Click View > Report Data.
Expand the Data Sources node.
Right Click the Data Source.
Select "Refresh".
Expand the Datasets node.
Right Click the Data Source.
Select "Refresh"
The changes will now reflect and be available for selection on the .rdlc
report designer
