Clicking the same place on files with different names

Help
#1

Hello all,

I am working on a project that requires excels with different names every day. The files’ names include that day’s date and are changed accordingly. I can open all the files fine. However, none of the click activities inside the files work because the title in the selector is the name with the date I originally made the automation.

How can I fix this so I do not need to change the name in the selector every day?

@Love_David_C, Hi and Welcome to the community

create a variable and assign datenow to it and then parse that variable in the selector where the name of the file is supposed to be.

I thought I would be able to get it from your post, but I am not good at programing or coding, and I’m just learning UiPath. Can you explain it like I’m 2 please? :baby:
