First using Read range activity read excel file and store in datatable.
After that use FOR EACH ROW in that datatable and then in it for each activty for columns in that datatable.
Then in nested for each use if condition columnValue.Tostring = “0” True Then use delete column activity and pass that dataColumn in it.

it will work for all dynamic rows and columns in datatable

After in end use write range to write data in excel.

Cheers @asatheeshk21

Hi Paras,

Thanks for the response, My requirement is to delete the entire column whichever is having the value of zero.The output should like sheet 2 attached herewithtest Report (1).xlsx (10.8 KB)

If there is any one non zero then only whole column value should be there if not then whole column will be deleted.

As I can understand the requirement here.
Requirement-
If any column value is zero then that column should be deleted and the one who is having value should be remained.
sheet 2 - output required.
sheet 1 - test Data.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
