Hello Mahesh,

It is not possible without a macro. The work around I thought was below:

1. Create a button in a sheet and add actions like OpenURL, Export, Launch.

2. Open Doc Properties Ctrl+Alt+D -> Triggers Tab -> Click On PostReload -> Add Actions -> Select Run Macro

and in Edit module write this script

SUB Launch

ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("Launch").Press

End Sub

-> Launch here is the Button Object Name. Change what your button object name is.

Try this and let us know.

Thanks,
V.

Hi mahesh,

It is not possible to set trigger without using Buttons.

Try to use Button's action triggered by using Macro.

Were you trying to create this trigger, opening the dashboard on one of the licensed server? I presume so. Coz when i opened the same dashboard on my desktop, it does not show any of those external action options.

Dashboard opened on Server: Another thing what i observed is, when i am using action -> DocProperties ->Triggers -> OnOpen -> External -> OpenURL. It works fine. This looks little strange to me. I will be interested to know why it is not working on OnPostReload trigger.

May be a security issue which needs to be over ridden when OnPostReload is used. I am not sure. But the work around would be the one I have sent you in my previous post (attached qvw file).

Let me know if you find any answers.

Thanks,
V.
