Problem with clear datatable inside for each row

Hello

Is this a bug?

I have two datatables and I want to clear datatable 2 inside an “for each row in datatable” of datatable 1.
UiPath Studio seems to ignore the value of “datatable to be cleared” and clears both datatables.

What are you trying to do? There’s no reason to clear a datatable over and over like that. Aside from the strangeness of the error, what you’re doing makes no sense. What’s your goal?

Datatables are objects. So when you assign Datatable2 = Datatable1, you are just telling both the variables to point to the same object/datatable. To get two different datatables, use Copy() instead.

Datatable2 = Datatable1.Copy()

HI @SorenB

This error is occurring because you are looping through a datatable and clearing the same datatable

Why are trying to do this any specific reason ?

This is the thing happened there

  • looping the datatable
    • it will goes into first loop and clears the datatable
    • Goes to second loop and will throw this error because the datatable variable has been updated with no rows , while it see for next row it cant find anuthing the datatable so its saying the Collection(Datatable has been modified) was modified

You need to assign

Datatable 2 = Datatable1.Clone

@SorenB
Because of you assigning the Datatable 2 = Datatable1

Both the datatable will be get cleared
