Hello,
Using Automation Anywhere 4.5, you can extract data from details page as well. If the web control that takes you to details page is a link then using 'Loop for each row in IE table command' you can click on that link and can extract data from details page using 'Extract Data' command.
For your reference, we have attached sample task (ExtractDetailsSample.atmn) in attached zip file. Copy it under location, 'C:\...\My Documents\Automation Anywhere\Automation Anywhere\My Tasks' folder. Copy 2.xls under c:\.
This task will extract list of sample tasks from Tethys website and will extract description of each task in a loop into 2.xls.
If the web control is not a link then you can use other loop options for e.g. Loop 20 times or Loop While web Control 'Next' Exist (if first table is in multiple pages). Inside loop you can use Keystrokes command to click on button that takes you to details page and and can extract data using 'Extract Data' command. Use Keystrokes command to come back from details page, move the cursor to next row so that in next iteration task will process for next row.
You can use nested loops but you cannot use nested 'Loop for each row in IE table' command.
We would like to create task for you. If you could tell us more about your case, we would be able to help you more with specific task.
Hope that helps.
