Read the excel and using Filter Datatable remove the unwanted column and write the Datatable in another sheet.

but it dosent help, i cant give only the column name to filter it. It is having some conditons

Hi
yah thats possible
–use a excel application scope and pass the file path as input
–use read range activity and get the output with a variable of type datatable named outdt
–use a assign activity like this
finaldt = outdt.DefaultView.ToTable(False,“column A”,“columnB”,“columnD”)

Where finaldt is a variable of type datatable which will be having the columns A,B and D alone in it
–now use a write range activity and pass the variable finaldt as input and mention the sheetname and make sure that ADD HEADERS property is enabled

hope this would help you buddy

@vishal.kp
Column name enough for the filter datatable.
Could you elaborate on the condition?

Thanks,

copied.xlsx (23.3 KB) filter this to show only name and workdoneinhours

@vishal.kp

Filter datatable will not work with duplicate column name,
instead we can rename it with other name using write cell.
