Hi Karthick,

We have another software that read with index name not column name which is currently using,
current excel file is finalized with uipath such as deleting columns and so on. But some column area are mismatching and we need to swap it to the correct order as below.

PO Date, PO No, Delivery Date, Currency, etc

So we only want to know how can we swap these columns in ordinal.
We also assign dt as follow for write range:
InputDT.AsEnumerable.Where(Function(x) row(“PONumber”).ToString.Contains(x.Field(Of String)(“PONumber”).ToString)).Select(Function(y) y).CopyToDatatable

Let me know if you can fulfill my requirement
Many thanks.

@Htwe_Ko_Ko_Wynn
Example:
Name, id, email
and you need name , email, id

you can use invoke method to do it
Targettype= null
Target object: DatatableName.Columns(“Name”)
Method name: SetOrdinal

Targettype= null
Target object: DatatableName.Columns(“email”)
Method name: SetOrdinal

Targettype= null
Target object: DatatableName.Columns(“id”)
Method name: SetOrdinal

print the data table again , columns will be udpated

There are 2 ways

1. use Set Ordinal Method
   2)dt.DefaultView.ToTable(true,“Column1”,“Column3”,“Column2”)

Hi shanmuck,

Can i get some sample xaml for your suggestion?

@Htwe_Ko_Ko_Wynn Use Filter Datatable Activity, And in Output Columns Section, Assign the Column Names in the Order you need it.

Thats also a very good approach
