.csv file opens with corrupted message box

[robot_learner]

Hi All,

I have a simple process. Using Excel Application Scope > create a .csv file (by checking ‘Create New File’ in properties > write some text into .csv file > save.

When I open the .csv file, it always show this “file could be corrupted / unsafe…” message box. However, after click ok, content inside the .csv is all good.

Nonetheless, any idea how to get rid of this message box? In addition, any idea why is this corrupt message box even showing?

Thanks for the help!

Regards,
Jack

To create a CSV file you should use the ‘Write CSV’ activity, this accepts only Datatable as input and for good reason. I’m not sure why you are using Excel Application Scope.

Excel Application Scope allows the File format of .xls,.xlsx.
