Hello UiPath Community,

I have been using the UiPath Studio software only for a couple weeks now.
Thanks to this forum and the offical guides, I have been able to figure out most the problems I have run into.

Im trying to read Data out of a Cell in a Excel Spreadsheet and I’m getting the following error code.

test has thrown an exception

Source: Read Cell

Message: Das aufgerufene Objekt wurde von den Clients getrennt. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010108 (RPC_E_DISCONNECTED))

Exception Type: ExcelException

Thanks for your help in advance, it will be greatly appreciated.

Just to be sure, the excel sheet you are trying to access is closed ?

Well I use the ‘read cell’ function various times in my workflow, and have it set to “invisibile” mode. As far as I cant tell the spreadsheet gets closed after reading the necessary cell.

Edit: If I run the workflow in the slow debug mode the error doesnt happen!

Open any Excel file → and than close all open workbooks. Also check in processes there are not excel.exe processes running.

Use the same option and it works, but had to put 3 delays to make sure. :smiley:
