Unknown error assigning a value to a column in a data table | Community

I am trying to assign 74 character string variable to the first column in a data table and I am getting this error: An unknown error occurred while trying to assign value "This is a test comment to be split to see how it will break comments in to" to the table at row index "0.0" and column index "0". I have added the row and I am using the correct index for the row and column, Any ideas on how to correct this?

Hi @Vern Dickson,

have you tried to use the column "Header" instead of the index?

By the way: Row index 0.0 should just be index 0 (integer not a decimal)

If you used the 'Set value of a single cell' action see below.

Or put a screenshot of your lines of code for me please

OK, I finally figured it out. On the record variable for the table you have to define the columns:

Record Variable

On the table itself you just have specify the number of columns:

Table Variable

Once I got the variables in sync it started working. Thanks for everyone’s suggestions.
