Import QVX to OleDb Automatically
Looking to import data from QVX to OleDb?
Advanced ETL Processor Enterprise provides everything you need to automate the data import without writing custom scripts. Visually map and transform your fields, then run the Import immediately or schedule it to repeat automatically.
QVX (QlikView Data eXchange) is a column-based file format used by Qlik tools for exporting large, structured datasets. While efficient and highly compressed, QVX files are not natively supported by most systems - including those accessed via OLE DB.

How to Import QVX to OLE DB - Step-by-Step
1. Launch Advanced ETL Processor
In the object tree:
- Create a Directory Connection for QVX source files
- Create a new OLE DB Connection for your destination
2. Create a New Transformation
Right-click a transformation group and choose New to open a new dataflow.
3. Configure QVX Reader
- Double-click to open Reader Properties
- Set datasource type to QVX
- Select Source Connection Directory
- Select your QVX file and verify the structure
4. Configure OLE DB Writer
- Double-click to open Writer Properties
- Set data target type to OLE DB
- Choose your OLE DB provider and target table
5. Map and Transform Fields
Use AutoMap or connect fields manually. You may also:
- Rename or adjust field types
- Clean, format, or validate data
- Apply expressions and calculations
6. Run the Transformation
Click Run (Green Arrow) to import the QVX file into your OLE DB database. You can run the task manually or schedule it.

FAQ
Can Advanced ETL Processor import QVX to OleDb?
Yes. Advanced ETL Processor can read QVX, map fields, validate data, write to OleDb, and log the import.
Do I need to write scripts for the import?
No scripting is required for the normal import workflow. You can configure the reader, writer, mapping, validation, and schedule visually.
Can the QVX import run on a schedule?
Yes. The package can run on a schedule, process matching QVX files, archive originals, and write rows to OleDb with the same validation rules each time.
Can imported data be transformed before loading?
Yes. You can clean values, convert data types, calculate fields, split columns, and apply lookup rules before writing to the target.
Can bad rows be logged or rejected?
Yes. Add validation rules so rejected rows, failed files, row counts, and error details are visible after each run.
What should I check before the first production import?
Check source layout, target table, key fields, data types, date formats, write mode, archive folder, and failure handling.
When should I not automate the import yet?
Do not automate it until the source layout, target table, key fields, and bad-row handling are clear. Automation repeats rules; it does not invent them.
Can I test the import before buying?
Yes. Download the fully functional 30-day trial, build one small import, and test it with a deliberately awkward sample file.
