Hi @SuprajaReddy,

Welcome to the uipath community!

I think that issue has something to do with excel. Please refer to this if you wish to repair your file:

Also if you´re renaming the file extension to .xls from .xlsx that could lead to the same issue.
check the file first. Let me know if that helps.

best regards,

Hi, I am facing the same issue with a process that creates a new excel file. I need to save this as .xls but when opening the file, I am greeted with the incorrect format message. The file has not been converted, it has been created as new and output from a data table. Unfortunately many programs used in my company are not up to date and still require the old .xls formats but this is proving tricky!!
