Hello.

So, it seems you just want to know how many from the first table is also in the second table.

You can probably run the first table through a For Each loop, then calculate the matches.

I, personally, would probably use some .net to pull in the matches. A pseudocode for this would look like this:

If Not dt1.Columns.Contains("Count")
    Add Data Column "Count"

For each row In dt1
    Assign count = dt2.AsEnumerable.Where(Function(r2) r2("EmpID").ToString.Trim = row("EmpID").ToString.Trim).ToArray.Count
    Assign row("Count") = count.ToString

Note: this is not actual code and just showing the activity logic needed in UiPath

When calculating the count, I was comparing the values as strings, so if you need to compare them as numbers which is common, you will need a slightly different condition to convert the values to numbers first.

Regards.

Hi @Manohar1

Use this

New dt= (from p in dt.Select() where( From q in dt.Select() where string.Join(“,”,q.ItemArray).Equals(string.Join(“,”,p.ItemArray)) Select q).ToArray.Count>1 Select p).ToArray.CopyToDataTable()

Check dt.rows.count.ToString
