Hello,

Using Variable Manager, create a list variable that reads value from a text file, read the data from specific CSV file using 'Read from CSV file' command, then inside loop insert If condition and log the value to a text file that is read by same list variable using 'Log to File' command.

We have created a sample task for your reference. To run this sample,

. Please copy .atmn under location, 'C:\...\My Documents\Automation Anywhere\Automation Anywhere\My Tasks' folder.
. Copy CSV file under C:\

Hope that helps.

Hello,
I am as well new to AA and I want to pass variables. The .txt file is only for one set of variables and I have many. I am trying to open the samples provided in this website but I cannot open them. I have 5.0.2 Premier.

Hello,

They are created in newer version so you need to download it in order to view them. You can download free trial version of Automation Anywhere 6.0 from our website:
Automation Anywhere - The Automation Software. Automate & Schedule IT & Business processes easily.

You can use 'Log to file' command to append the list value in a text/csv file and later in the task use 'Read from CSV/Text file' command to loop for all the list values.

Hope that helps.
