Hi @Nikhil K J​ ,

 

I hope you find this helpful

 

Please follow the below steps,

 

  • Use CSV/TXT Package to read the text file line by line
  • Include the If conditions to check the Arabic keywords
  • Whenever conditions find the keywords, please stored that line into the variable.
  • use the before/after or substring to get the value

Hi @Nikhil K J​ ,

 

Would you be so kind as to provide few sample text files so that we may be in a better position to assist you?

 

If there are only a handful of strings you will to export from it, then you could achieve some of it using Regex, but I can't say for sure unless we have something to work with.

 

Kind Regards,

Ashwin A.K
