How to retrieve values of row in the new Find or replace in data table action

(0) ShareShare

See the screen shot below. I get the error: Variable 'DTCommunities' doesn't have a property '1'., but if I hardcode in 1 in place of the "DTRowFound" variable, it retrieves the row just fine. Anyone know what I'm missing here? Thanks!

    I was able to solve this. I made a simply assumption that the "get subtext" action which stored the value in a variable was in number format but it was in text. I had to add a convert text to number since retrieving the row requires a number input and not text!

    Use %DataTableMatches[0][0]% as input in a Convert text to number action, then use the output (%DTRowFound%) in your message box:    %DTCommunities[DTRowFound]['EHR Community Name']%

    Didn't see your reply, but yes that's exactly right. Very strange that the datatable values aren't numerical 🥴

     

    The (very similar) Find and replace cells in Excel worksheet produces numerical values...
