If any questions arise regarding QlikView, there is a wealth of resources to refer to including the QlikView website, QlikCommunity, and the PDF QlikView reference manual.
QlikCommunity is a discussion forum for QlikView users at http://community.qlik.com/welcome. Login with your QlikView ID, the same one you used to download the QlikView Personal Edition. Here, you will be able to set up your personal profile, join groups, ask questions, read blogs, and make suggestions for improvements to the QlikView functionality. The search function in the QlikCommunity website works well. If you are just starting out, chances are that you are not the only one to have ever run into the specific issue that you are facing.

With Qlikview 11, source control integration was introduced. This is the capability for the developers of QlikView documents to manage their work with source control tools. With these tools, developers can control and share their development efforts in a single QlikView QVW file.
This feature is available when using QlikView Desktop. An option in the File menu allows QlikView developers to connect a QlikView document to a source control system. More information on source control is available in a white paper at http://community.qlik.com. Find it by using the Search box in the website and limit your search to documents.
For more details on the Server requirements, check out the PDF document: DS-QlikView-11-System-Requirements-EN.pdf available on the QlikView website.
When you installed QlikView, you also downloaded the QlikView reference manual. It is in the PDF format. To open it, navigate to C:ProgramDataQlikTechQlikView DocumentationReference Manual. If you have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed, you can just double-click on the QlikView Reference Manual.pdf to open it.
In this document, you will find a wealth of additional information including the fact that older QlikView documents are compatible with the QlikView 11 Server and licensed clients.
Note
QlikView 7.52 and later share the same file format as QlikView 11. You can work in these versions in parallel virtually without giving it a second thought. The New QlikView 11 document features will, of course, not work in QlikView 7.52, 8, 9, or 10 but will be retained even if the document is opened and edited in an earlier version.
