Good afternoon everybody,

 

I hereby seek your help, I have a question, I have the "Directory" tool with several ".csv" files, and I want the content of each of them, and I was recommended to run a macro (Attached) When I run it in worflow I get the error -
"Macro_teste (806) Error while reading xml: ParseError: unable to open primary document entity 'C(...)\Macro_teste.yxmc' at line 0 and column 0".


I appreciate any kind of help.

If your files have the same schema, you can use the Dynamic Input Tool:

Also, as far as the macro error is concerned, it apparently has to do with special characters appearing somewhere (try the file path?).

I'd start investigating there.

 

Edit: I ran the macro myself with no issues, so that would definitely be where to start looking!
