Hi,

Anyone has idea on using spreadsheets to load and interact with IBM iACS from UiPath,
Previously we had written in Macros in VB but currently it is not compatible with updated IBM version, if yes can someone provide us inputs.

Are you using it to connect to an AS400 system or similar?

Try using a Terminal Direct Connection instead, far easier

@karthik_kulkarni1,

Follow this knowledge base.

Reason is I can make connection using IBM ACS using below connection and I can interact

But unable to run macro as it is using vb code

What is meant by your original statement “spreadsheets to load and interact” what is it you are trying to do?

6

I don’t think you can run macro on terminal from UiPath. You will have to code macro logic into UiPath workflows.

@karthik_kulkarni1,

Macro uses Visual Basic for Application (VBA) and UiPath uses VB.Net/C#

Though VBA & VB.Net are similar but you cannot use VBA code directly. You will have to modify it as per syntax of VBA to VB.net.
