Hey @jimmy_jos1
In your Read File Text Activity you are passing a variable or String?

if passing variable which is you are assigning just before it then you do not have to use " "
with it.
or
if you are passing a file path then you have to use a text file extension as well like “abc.txt”

Regards…!!

hi @jimmy_jos1

firstly split the text data using Split Function in assign activity

your_text_data_variable.Split({" ",newline},StringSplitOptions.None)
here newline = Environment.NewLine

Collect the output of the Split function into an array of string. And then using add data row to write into excel file.

@jimmy_jos1,

Try to write it in a CSV instead of excel with a perfect seperator you have. that will do the trick.

You can use the above method as well as @jitendra_123 mentioned.
