Installing for QlikView Desktop Client - Manual Method for Windows XP
Download the QARs from the download site
Obtain the login credentials for the download site from your Analytics8 Sales Executive or Analytics8 Reseller Partner.
Note: The download site is download.analytics8.com
Verify hidden files are visible
Ensure that the “Show hidden files, folders, and drives” option is selected so you can navigate to the necessary folders.
Rename each .QAR file to a .ZIP file
Extract each .ZIP file
Move the contents of each .ZIP file to the Objects folder
Copy the contents of each .ZIP file to:
• C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects
NOTE: You will have to manually create the following folders if no extensions have been installed on the machine:
• C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions
• C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\ Local Settings\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects
Verify directory structure
When verifying the directory structure, make sure that files, not another QlikMaps folder, are found directly inside the following folders.
NOTE: Due to the way that certain zipping programs unzip files, you may have an extra level of folders inside the following directories. To resolve this, copy the innermost folder and past to the /Extensions/Objects directory. The ending directory structure should look like the following, with files directly inside them, rather than a QlikMaps folder.
QlikMaps 1.x
The final directory structure should look similar to this:
• C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects\QlikMaps_For_Google_Points
• C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects\QlikMaps_For_Google_Polygons
• C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects\QlikMaps_For_Google_Points_and_Polygons

• C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects\QlikMaps_For_MQ_Polygons
