Hi @ranshikasrivastava99

U can try like this

  1. To check whether the string is available in excel or not u can use lookup datatable activitiy

Lookup datatable activitiy helps to check whether the value is in particular column and if it is there, then it will return the rowindex of that particular row by which u can access the column.values of that particular row

Let’s say if u got rowindex as 1 from the lookup datatable activitiy then u can access any column value like value of second column as

Dt.Rows(1)(1).ToString

If the value is not present in excel then lookup datatable activitiy will return -1 as output.
which means no data is present in excel

Hope the logic helps you

Mark it as solution if it resolves ur query
