The QlikView script consists of a number of statements. A statement can be either a regular script statement or a script control statement. Certain statements can be preceded by prefixes.
Regular statements are typically used for manipulating data in one way or another. These statements may be written over any number of lines in the script and must always be terminated by a semicolon, ";".
Control statements are typically used for controlling the flow of the script execution. Each clause of a control statement must be kept inside one script line and may be terminated by a semicolon or the end-of-line.
Prefixes may be applied to applicable regular statements but never to control statements. The when and unless prefixes can, however, be used as suffixes to a few specific control statement clauses.
In the next subchapter, an alphabetical listing of all script statements, control statements and prefixes, are found.
All script keywords can be typed with any combination of lower case and upper case characters. Field and variable names used in the statements are however case sensitive.
