Hi,

I need to retrieve two 8 digit alphanumeric characters from a 8 page word file and it may be like 9988uuii or ff88773. I can use regex but does not know how to retrieve them from a word file. Could please anyone help me on this?

Hi Ula,

If you know regex then read the word file and copy to a string and apply your regex pattern on that string.

Hi,

Hopefully I’ll make @harinathreddy.yn 's answer more clear to you.
You can read the document with Read Text activity (System/File/WordDocument/Read Text or App Integration/Word/Read Text). With the help of Log message you can check the output and find out the word’s position - for example it is in between two specific words. Splitting the output of Read Text, you can get the data.
