Hi Team,

I am using Excel Application Scope to open Excel and perform the activities. But the excel is not opening in foreground. Need to attach one text file in one of the cell. Please help.

Thanks,
Alamgir

Do you have the “Visible” box checked in the Excel Application Scope activity?

And are you using an Activate activity to then bring the window to the foreground?

What do you need to do in excel - with uipath its better to read range and work on DT in computer memory (workbook activities and read range) and after all action use append range in file.

Yes, microsoft is installed in my system.
