Help
#1

Hi All,

I am a total newbie here in UI path and I have gone through some tutorials on youtube about using UI Path. (its been just 5 days in UI path).

I am facing a lot of small issues in copying data from an external application on a remote computer repeatedly and pasting it on the excel file on my local computer.

Kindly help or point me to the correct thread where i can learn more.

Thanks
Sourav

I have a remote computer where i have an application installed (a database application which cannot be installed on my local computer due to security reasons). Now i have some keys (about 250) in an excel file which i need to search on the application on remote computer and corresponding to the search, i get the first name, last name, phone number, and 20 other details. Now for each key, i need to copy paste the key in the search box in application, hit enter, and copy paste the info generated one-by-one into the excel file on my local computer.
