@swapsingh2712 @Use the block until done tool and write the output tab first then, write the second tab

You may also need to add a Wait a Sec CReW macro  linked to the second Block-Until-Done (BUD) output, to avoid write contention errors.

 

For me, the BUD worked OK when I was writing the output file to my PC.  But when I wrote the file to a network drive (slower write), I got "file in use" errors because Excel didn't shut down quickly enough after the first sheet.
