Help
1

Hi,

I am looking to create a loop where the process will run through to the end and then pick the next company name on the drop down list to run the process. There will be 21 files that will need to be run to be on the save side i have entered my count to 25 until i get further information to confirm the amount of files.
I have created the below screenshot however the process is not looping, can anyone help me or guide me in the right direction.

your activities aren’t inside the loop buddy, drag and drop the try-catch inside the while

Brilliant, thank you @fernando_zuluaga instantly worked :joy:
However the part of the process where i need it to pick the next file down is not working, it picks the same file each time.

If i put a hotkey in the first run process to select the second one it will never click the first file, and files don’t get deleted after they have been ran.

so you need to loop trough the selector file, and make it dynamic, each time pick the next one, increment the dynamic variable

5

At the min i am using click image and click activity is not working on the interface i am using.
I have used this code to make the selector dynamic how it still picked the same file.

where am i going wrong here?
