@MKRoy, Declare your datatable as dt.

Filtering (Assign Activity)

  1. Datatable dtLessthan30000 = dt.Select(“Convert(ColumnName,System.Double) <
    ‘30000’”).CopyToDatatable

  2. Datatable dtMorethan30000 = dt.Select(“Convert(ColumnName,System.Double) > ‘30000’”).CopyToDatatable

Output (Write Range)

  1. Write dtLessthan30000 in sheet1
  2. Write dtMorethan30000 in sheet2

Note: Conversion used is a preventive measure ! Even if your column is in string or someother datatype this will convert it to a double format. If your column is already in integer/double, giving your columnName alone is good enough.

@MKRoy, Think you have forgotten to use this after the query.

If not you might have declared dtLessthan30000 and dtMorethan30000 as Datarow[]

Hello Dominic, one more error is coming. That is “cannot find coulmname”

@MKRoy, You need to replace the columnName with your columnName (like salary details)

ya…i have done that thing earlier only. In my excel file i have name, salary and job column and assign activity i have given ‘dt.Select(“convert(Salary,System.Double)<‘30000’”).CopyToDatatable’. Before assign activity i have used read range from their only ‘cannot find coulmn name’

@MKRoy, Confirm once that you have checked Add Headers property in read range. If not enusre there is/are no space(s) in the column name.
