Example

The code below creates an Excel driver and then iterates through the records of the specified file via the properties and methods of the DDTDriver object.

JavaScript, JScript

function DDTDriverExample()
{
  // Creates a driver
  var Driver = DDT.ExcelDriver("C:\\MyFile.xls", "Sheet1");
   
  // Iterates through records
  while  (! Driver.EOF())
  {
  //Gets a value from the storage and posts it to the log
    Log.Message(Driver.Value(0));
    DDT.CurrentDriver.Next();
  }
   
  // Closes the driver
  DDT.CloseDriver(Driver.Name);
}

Python

def DDTDriverExample():
  # Creates a driver 
  Driver = DDT.ExcelDriver("C:\\MyFiles\\MyFile.xls", "Sheet1")
  # Iterates through records 
  while not Driver.EOF():
    # Gets a value from the storage and posts it to the log 
    Log.Message(Driver.Value[0])
    DDT.CurrentDriver.Next()
  # Closes the driver 
  DDT.CloseDriver(Driver.Name)

VBScript

Sub DDTDriverExample
  
  ' Creates a driver
  Set Driver = DDT.ExcelDriver("C:\MyFile.xls", "Sheet1")
   
  ' Iterates through records
  While Not Driver.EOF()
   
  ' Gets a value from the storage and posts it to the log
    Log.Message(Driver.Value(0))
    DDT.CurrentDriver.Next()
  WEnd
   
  ' Closes the driver
  DDT.CloseDriver(Driver.Name)
  
End Sub

DelphiScript

function DDTDriverExample;
var Driver;
begin

  // Creates a driver
  Driver := DDT.ExcelDriver('C:\MyFile.xls', 'Sheet1');
   
  // Iterates through records
  while Not Driver.EOF() do
  begin
  //Gets a value from the storage and posts it to the log
    Log.Message(Driver.Value(0));
    DDT.CurrentDriver.Next();
  end;
  
  // Closes the driver
  DDT.CloseDriver(Driver.Name);

end;

C++Script, C#Script

function DDTDriverExample()
{
  // Creates a driver
  var Driver = DDT["ExcelDriver"]( "C:\\MyFile.xls", "Sheet1" );
   
  // Iterates through records
  while  (! Driver["EOF"]())
  {
  //Gets a value from the storage and posts it to the log
    Log.Message(Driver["Value"](0));
    DDT["CurrentDriver"]["Next"]();
  }
  
  // Closes the driver
  DDT["CloseDriver"]( Driver["Name"] );
}
