parse File Action Node

The purpose of this node is to convert data found within a file into a dataset.

The files that we can convert are:-

RTF Table RTF Text HTML HTML Table CSV Table

In the case of a table the data is first read in as a table. We can then get the parser to search for a cell by giving it either a location, such as pt(0,0) or text to search for, such as TEAM NAME. When it finds this cell it will then return:-

Cell Above

Cell Right

Cell Below

Cell Left

Chars At Cell

Chars Before

Chars After

Chars Between

Chars At Positions

Given the the rtf file we have below, let us say we want to extract the 2 Contact Telephone Numbers, the Team Name and the Team Location.
