  1. Yes you can read.After data extraction result will be stored in the Extract data table use this datatable.
  1. Use try catch inside the for each row or use if condition

  • In for each row use get row item activity this will give whole column values this will be stored in the variable v1

  • use if condition to check if v1 is empty if it is empty assign null value as shown below

        if(String.IsNullOrEmpty(v1))
      {
           //true
           assign v1 = " "
      }

@prashantP In the get row item Row properties just pass row remove all which you passed now ie ExtractDataTable.Rows(0).Item(7).ToString

#7

If you want to read the data from 8th column then in for each row
Just use row(7).tostring

@prashantP Don’t pass row(7).Tostring just pass row.ToString

Fine
hope these steps could help you resolve this easily

either of this is absolutely possible
–use a extract datatable activity and get the output with a variable of type datatable named ExtractedDatatable of type datatable
–now use a for each row loop activity and pass the above variable as input
–inside the loop use a if condition directly
like this
NOT String.IsNullOrEmpty(row(8).ToString)
If true it will go to THEN part where we use any activity we want or if its false that is it has null value then we can go for ELSE part

simple isnt it
