    Hello again, 

    I just find out that the issue is cause by not closing the driver in the methods that I called in my code. 

    DDT.CloseDriver(DDT.CurrentDriver.Name);

    This line solved issue for me.

So the example is not working?

I suggest you try something very simple to output a value, e.g.

function search_with_loop() {
    DDT.ExcelDriver("C:\\Temp\\Book2.xlsx", "Sheet1");
    DDT.CurrentDriver.DriveMethod("SearchPerson.search_for_existing_record");
}

function search_for_existing_record() {
    Log.Message(DDT.CurrentDriver.Value("Person ID"));
}

The message "...requested name or ordinal" usually indicates that the column name is not correct or not formatted correctly. You have the following, the latter, does not have an underscore.

DDT.CurrentDriver.Value("Last_Name")
DDT.CurrentDriver.Value("Person ID")
