Hi @md.ahtesham,

There must be so many ways to achieve this. You can try the distinct method to get the value:
dateValue = dt_Test.DefaultView.ToTable(true,“Document Date”).Rows(1).Item(“Document Date”).ToString

  • Use Filter Datatable activity.
  • In filter give [Document Date] not equals “”
  • In columns tab give [Document Date].

Sorry to disturb you again… How we can fetch the first date if situation is like below.

FYI … date will be same . there is no chance that there will be different date. just the thing is it can be anywhere and any number of times.

Thanks,

Hi @md.ahtesham,
Above solution (@PD2 provided) will gives the first value from your DocumentDate column. It depends on row index, If you change the Row index it will gives the according value for that index.

dateValue = dt_Test.DefaultView.ToTable(true,“Document Date”).Rows(1).Item(“Document Date”).ToString ----------> First value

dateValue = dt_Test.DefaultView.ToTable(true,“Document Date”).Rows(2).Item(“Document Date”).ToString ----------> Second value

Thanks!
