Excel reader does not read URI files

[mlauber71]

@IvaR my recommendation would be to read the (somewhat lengthy):

https://docs.knime.com/latest/analytics_platform_file_handling_guide/index.html#introduction

yes it is long but then you will know all about paths in KNIME which will help you in the future. Also you can take a look at this workflow that has a lot of waht you can do with Paths and URIs. Rule of thumb: you can convert nearly everything ito everything else with a little effort:

even more fun with URI, URL and File Paths - work with the new Path variable...

Then paths are the concept with which to locate files in KNIME. Here is how you create them:

Write multiple CSV file to a loop

@VJAM the creation of Flow Variables for Paths is maybe not 100% straightforward. Maybe this example might help to sort it out. The “path_values” is maybe not perfectly named. I think this is constructed that you could pass several Folder variables as collection strings. Also: CHunk Loop Start might have to be set to 1. Often I prefer the Table Row to Variable Loop Start node. [image] [image]
