Get Selected Range
Get Selected Range activity that returns the selected range as a String variable in Excel.
UiPath.Excel.Activities.ExcelGetSelectedRange
Description
Returns the selected range as a String variable.
Project compatibility
Windows - Legacy | Windows
Properties
Common
- DisplayName - The display name of the activity.
Misc
- Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.
Output
- Range - The retrieved range, stored in a String variable. This field supports only strings and String variables.
Note:
You can use the Get Selected Range activity as a confirmation tool or as an information extractor tool.
- Confirmation tool: when used together with the Select Range activity, the Get Selected Range activity confirms the automatically selected range.
- Information Extractor Tool: when used as a standalone activity, Get Selected Range extracts the information and notifies the user about the manually selected range.
Example of Using the Get Selected Range Activity
To exemplify how to use this activity, we have built an automation project which opens an Excel workbook and then displays a message box, in which time you can select a range which is then copied and displayed in another message box.
