[Solved]Using Find or Replace in Datatable as a Variable

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 7

Hy there,

iam struggling with some replacements i have to do in a Datatable

As of now i have this For each Loop

My Problem is:
I get the Variable "TempSearch" filled with the correct Value i want to search.
When i use find or Replace, its seems to search for "TempSearch" and not for the Value of the Variable TempSearch
Is it me doing something wrong, or is the Find or replace Function not able to use Variables?

    The way you have it written, you are taking the value in "Column1", which you've stored in TempSearch, and searching for it in Column2 (which has the index of 1 that Find or Replace uses); and if they match, delete the Row. Is that your intent? If so, it appears to be written correctly, as I just tested it on my machine.

    Thank you.
    Since i was not able to solve it either in a way it does not break performance, and because our Head of.. wanted it for other Tasks as well, i solved that Problem via SQL Query and embed the result in the Process.
    So solved 🙂
