@PDcoder

Change Type Argument to String in For Each loop and then try once.

Hi @lakshman,
I have tried with the same but showing compiler error in that case too.

First assign string= directory.GetFiles(Filepath)

then put for each and put stringin it

and inside for each put read pdf text

[ashley11 (Ashley Nihal Dcunha)]

files must be of string array

strong text

Hi @PDcoder

The basic problem in your code is variable DATATYPE. You should use an Array variable instead of Generic value.

For that in Variables panel click on Variable type. Select Array of [T] and below pop will come.

and select String data type which should resolve your problem.

Vijay.
