    I guess you can do like below,


    function CurDriverExample()
{
  // Creates a driver
  DDT.ExcelDriver("C:\\MyFile.xls", "Sheet1");
  var colSkipper = 0;
  // Iterates through records
  while (! DDT.CurrentDriver.EOF())
  { 
  //Gets a value from the storage and posts it to the log
	for(var c = colSkipper ; c < DDT.CurrentDriver.ColumnCount ; c++){ 
		Log.Message(DDT.CurrentDriver.Value(c)); 
	}
	colSkipper++;//to skip one col in each row
    DDT.CurrentDriver.Next(); 
  }
  
  // Closes the driver
  DDT.CloseDriver(DDT.CurrentDriver.Name);
}

    Hi,

     

    You need to create oleObject to use the excel [this way also we can do].

    TestComplete provides in-build function to access the excel data using DDT drivers.

     

    Example from Smartbear doc:

     

    function CurDriverExample()
{
  // Creates a driver
  DDT.ExcelDriver("C:\\MyFile.xls", "Sheet1");
   
  // Iterates through records
  while (! DDT.CurrentDriver.EOF())
  { 
  //Gets a value from the storage and posts it to the log
    Log.Message(DDT.CurrentDriver.Value(0)); 
    DDT.CurrentDriver.Next(); 
  }
  
  // Closes the driver
  DDT.CloseDriver(DDT.CurrentDriver.Name);
}

      Thanks for the reply, I can read the data what's I'm having trouble is with when I'm trying to split the data from the cell and using it,, for ex, I need to split the data from col A and Col B then use it, first iteration item 1 from col A then item1 from Col b, second iteration item 2 from col A and then Item 2 from Col B and do some task,,,,,, and so on,, I'm having trouble with writing this statement in loop. thanks
