Coded Step: Extract value from .CSV file

[Nate]

Hello,
         Is there a way I can extract a value in a coded step from a data bound .csv in the QA Edition? Or do I need to perform this via an ODBC connection?

For example: The Test will run and state that for Iteration #1: CompanyName= Bob'sCompany . I would like to obtain the value "Bob'sCompany" from CompanyName.


Thanks

Hi Nate,

If your test is already bound to a data source, you can access the data for the current iteration in code via the Data[] object. For example in a coded step you have:

string companyName = (string)Data["CompanyName"];

This will fetch the data for the current iteration from the data column "CompanyName" and place it in the string variable "companyName".

That should get you started. Let us know if you have further questions on this.

Best wishes,

Excellent! That's exactly what I needed to know. Thanks.
