I noticed that the Send Hotkey activity creates a problem of interaction with my keyboard.
If I use this activity the keyboard stops working.
Do you know if there is any settings I should impose?
Thank you,

SOrry @balupad.
I cannot attach a csv file to the topic :frowning:
Simply you can generate one csv file, click on Data, Import from csv file and type the name of the file in the combobox.
It should work in background :=)

I would need from csv to Excel with the data saved in Text format.
Is it possible? :slight_smile:

Hi @CamiCat

To Save Textformat , only have to use the csv. In Excel , I think is not possible.

Which one you need ?
CSV to XL or
XL to CSV.
