    Hi Helen,

     

    No, these are not functions. These are some variables which hold the values from the spreadsheet.

    I figured out the issue here. It was still being treated as an object and I was trying to read it without using any property.

    Here's what I've used.

     

     

    var getUsageCode = aqObject.GetPropertyValue(readExcel(i, 1, "Sheet1"), "Text")



     

    Thanks for your help!

Thanks Robert! I was using the DDT driver, but the issue that I have is:

 

1. How do I read only 1 row at a time, feed the data in the Test and Run it and then keep the RowPosition stored in a variable?

2. In the Next Iteration, I'd want to read the Second row and get the Data and Run the Test. Keep Repeating the steps until the last populated row of the spreadsheet. 

 

 

Thank you

Abhi

The DDT driver helps you go through the rows automatically.   There's an example for you in that link that I posted.  

 

"The code below illustrates the use of DDT.ExcelDriver. This code creates a DDT driver for an Excel sheet, runs through records of the driver’s table and posts values stored in record fields to the test log"
