The problem is that I should prepare the file to be imported in a local made
software (in Oracle). This suppose to obtain a string in which I put the sql
command and all the information from my variables. I solved this problem by
creating two string variables and then in Excel I put the information from
both together. But, I want to do this in an automatic manner.
Thanks,
Lilian
