Path Exists : Object reference not set to an instance of an object ERROR

Hi guys,

i need to controlling the excel file location is exist or not so i did path exist and i’m getting this error => “Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

pth

What should i do?

Thanks.

Make sure you have used the correct value in Path Property. The value you are reffering in config file does it exists?

Hi @yigit.aybey

Check the Input → Path in the properties panel. Can you check the Config file, Just make sure there is space in-between the path.

the value is like this => mydata\abc.xlsx and path type is “file”

my code like this : in_Config(“ExcelDosyaKonumu”).ToString.Trim and the value is like this => mydata\abc.xlsx and path type is “file”

You can try with If activity also;

System.IO.File.Exists(Path.Combine(Config("Path").ToString+Config("Path2").ToString))

Hello @yigit.aybey ,

Everything looks good here, just try to print the value in message box of in_config(“PathReference”).ToString which is used in Path property.

And make sure you are using full path not the relevant path if the file is outside of your Project folder.

instead of path exist ??

Yes, You can try like that method also @yigit.aybey

In the beginning of the there must have C:\User_Profile\

my excel file is inside of the project. @rohith.prabhu but also i can try like that.

Hi @yigit.aybey

Try like this way

Environment.CurrentDirectory+"\"+in_Config(“ExcelDosyaKonumu”).ToString.Trim

what does it refer to? path and path 2

Hello,

Then use the below and try :
Environment.CurrentDirectory+“\”+in_Config(“ExcelreferncePath”).ToString.Trim

Just Skip Path and Path2 . For the reference i gave the sample @yigit.aybey

System.IO.File.Exists(Path.Combine(Environment.CurrentDirectory+"\"+Config("ExcelDosyaKonumu").ToString.Trim))

getting same error.

Can you share the error @yigit.aybey

Environment.CurrentDirectory+""+Config(“ExcelDosyaKonumu”).ToString.Trim

i pasted to if condition but i got the same error again.

Hi @yigit.aybey

What is the variable type of the In_Config ?

Dictionary(String,Object)
