in if condition write - datatable.rows.count > 0

then execute true condition will have (data with header)
else (only header)

it’s working fine for me use Excel Application Scope

You can place the activities in Try catch, In catch you select “System.NullReferenceExeception” and define the steps in catch.

check below

OR

You can use Read Range activity from the workbook, so you get count as 0

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi @Gauri_Rawool,

Please use Read Range activity (Excel Activities) inside the Excel Application Scope. Now set the Add Headers option in Read Range activity as Checked as I can see that this option is Unchecked in the shared screenshot.

Now use the below syntax in If condition -

YourDataTable.Rows.Count=0

Now you can proceed with your further activities.

Thanks & Regards,
