How to get data from an xml to excel which have more than 65000 rows

[rrdamuluri]

Hi,
I have a large xml file which will result more than 65000 rows most likely 300000. And I have noticed data table in QTP have a limit of 65000 rows. Can some one tell me how to overcome this constraint and write all the xml results to an excel file.
Following is the logic i'm trying:

Code:

Const XMLDataFile = "C:\Users\damulur\Desktop\on_mov_programs-db_20101011_1.xml" Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") xmlDoc.Async = False xmlDoc.Load(XMLDataFile) datatable.AddSheet("output").AddParameter "TMSID","" prg ="on/programs/program" Set prg1=xmlDoc.selectNodes(prg ) For i=0 to (prg1.length-1) TMS=prg1.item(i).getAttribute("TMSId") DataTable.Value("TMSID","output") =TMS DataTable.SetCurrentRow(i+1) Next DataTable.ExportSheet "C:\Users\damulur\Desktop\1.xls","output"

Basically this is a limit in excel and so in QTP.
what you can do is once you get the row > 65000 then add a new sheet and start writing into it.
By the way , I can see that you are finally exporting it to a excel file, why dont you directly wirte into a excel sheet rather in datatable.
