Newbie - How to read specific text from .txt file #209

Closed Iron-Hunter closed 4 years ago

Iron-Hunter commented 4 years ago

Hello, I am fairly new to RPA overall and can't seem to be able to extract text from a .txt file. I can open the file needed without issues I just want to extract specific text and preferably paste it in a new notepad instance.

Thanks in advance

When you say specific text, can you please give a scenario? There are multiple methods currently to do this in taskt.

You should review the Data Commands group, specifically the Split Text, Substring, and Text Extraction Command.
