Excel Viewer

[zaguber]

Hi ,

I have created a task that opens a excel worksheet copies the content of specific columns and posts it in notepad. Now i want the same thing to work in excel viewer ,because some of the machines here does not have excel. But the task which i created doesnot work in excel viewer. Is there any method where i can use excel commands in excel viewer also.

Hello,

Excel command works tightly with MS Excel. By default, 'Open Spreadsheet' command will always try to open specified excel file in MS Excel. So unfortunately, you cannot use Excel commands with Excel Viewer However, you can use normal Keystrokes command to transfer data from Excel Viewer to notepad.

Hope that helps.

Is it possible for your process that creates the EXCELs to also create a CSV file of the same data?

You might be able to read that data as text in AA....
