I think there is no module to open .xls file in Kofax RPA 10.4. Or is it depended on System(OS) Microsoft Office version?
If you know, please share with us. TIA.

You should select the output "extract to variable" and create an "open variable" action, select the variable that had assigned from the load file.

open a OneDrive file with r

Im tring to create a shiny app that read and online onedrive xlsx file and show some things, but for the moment Im unable to read the onedrive xlsx file, I already explore the Microsoft365R and I can conect to my onedrive and I even can open the fil but... what it does is from r open a tab in chrome with the excel file.
I need the file in the local enviroment of r.. this its beacause the shiny app must be deploy in a web server, that every time the app runs it reads the update the file.
library(Microsfot365R)
odb <- get_business_onedrive()
odb$open_file("lcursos.xlsx")
Also this its a business account, so I also have to put the username and key to acces each file, that its beacause use the simple url doesnt work, it says Error 403 FORBIDEEN.
Any ideas?
Thank you so much!
Use the download_file() method to download the file to your local machine:
odb$download_file("lcursos.xlsx")
You can set the location of the download with the dest argument. Once it's downloaded, open it with the xls reader package of your choice. I suggest either openxlsx or readxl.
Note that if your file is password protected, your options are limited. See this question for possible solutions.

Botium file upload error - "Excel registration failed - Value for field filecontent is too long"

Trying to upload a test excel file of size 320 KB on Botium (Local CE edition) but Botium is returning Excel registration failed - Value for field filecontent is too long. error message.
Expected result - For the file to upload successfully
Actual Result - Excel registration failed - Value for field filecontent is too long. error message.
Screenshot of the error message - link
Currently the maximum file size uploading Excel files is restricted by the database system backing Botium Box and Prisma (by default mysql). We have a story in our backlog to use an external storage for large Excel files. Currently, the only solution (and by the way, something we usually recommend to all of our Botium Box users) is to use a Git repository or at least a shared folder to place your Excel files.
(with Botium Box Community Edition, Git option not available)
You should do like this:
Create a subdirectory in the resources-Folder and place the Excel file there
Register this folder, but prefix it with /app/server/resources (instead of the physical path on your local workstation - this folder is mapped to the Docker environment)
Now you can use this test set as usual
UPDATE:
To see the Test Set contents, use the "Compile Test Set and Update Statistics" button:

How to open a saved Google Onhub diagnostic report?

I have a saved Google Onhub diagnostic report. With Notepad I can't see the whole file, because it's encrypted. A Hex-Editor won't open it neither.
Can someone tell me if there is a program to open it correctly?
Thank you!
It's a protobuf encoded file, containing an archive of files and other data entries.
There's a Go project on github that decodes it, and even if you don't run their Go code, you can use the protobuf schema that's available in that repository to decode the report in whichever environment you choose using the protobuf bindings available in the official website

Can I use a web based IDE like Eclipse che for connecting to a server maintained by my university for python programming ?

I want to edit the code through the IDEs text editor and debug and run it on the server.
Download Notepad ++ here
Download WinScp here
Connect to your school's server with winscp, then navigate to whatever file you would like to edit. Right click and set the default editor to notepad ++. Now everytime you open any file, you can hot edit inside notepad ++.
I know i perhaps strayed from your full request, but i like this method for quickly updating code and testing on the server.

How to dynamically reload file in Visual Studio ?

I have include an xml file included in my solution in visual studio. I am adding new nodes in my file at runtime. But when i am recieving this message all the time The file has been modified out the source editor. Do you want to reload the file? Is there any solution that I can dynamically reload file in my code instead of showing this message ?
As far as i know, no. But if you dont want to see it, my advice is to close the xml on VS while running the app, and open it when finished. It will save you from a ton of times clicking "yes" on the alert message.
