Dear UI Path community,
I would appreciate your help very much with the following challenge.
Situation:
- There is a Microsoft Word document (.docx) with a table.
- The first column or columns contain cells with attribute names as text (like “Customer name”).
- The last column contains cells with attribute values as text (like “John Doe”).
- I know all attribute names.
Question:
Is there an activity, in which I input a text (like “customer name”) and get the row number of the cell, which contains this text?
Regards, Dominik
Hello @dominik.wallenreiter
Welcome to UiPath community…!
There is a custom activity available in the market place to extract the table from the word document. Once you extract the table, then you can use Get Row activity to fetch each value from datatable.
Thanks
Hello Rahul_Unnikrishnan,
thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately I cannot use a package from Marketplace or Third Party, because a policy in my company forbids it.
Anyway, to convert the word table to a data table and use the Get row activity is a good idea. Perhaps I find another way to convert it in a data table.
Are there any other ideas?
Regards
