Qlikview加载数据库里的数据，一般都是通过ODBC和数据库进行连接，然后把数据库里的相应的表里的数据加载到本地的disk folder里，后期就可以直接从用本地的disk folder里的QVD的文件获取数据来做DASHBOARD了。本人一开始加载数据的时候老是会死机，原因是我在加载好一个数据库里的表里数据到本地的QVD文件后，没有及时的从内存里把相应的表给删除掉，导致了多个表都在内存里，而且他们还会通过相同的自动名称进行关联，有时候QLIKVIEW 会自动的产生很多个synthetic的key. 所以在加载数据的时候要及时的把内存里的表给删除掉是个好办法。

下面是我加载数据库里的数据并且把它保存到本来生成QVD 文件的例子：

从上面可以看出，我加载完一个表后就把此表从内存中删除掉了，这样会释放出内存给后面的表来使用。
