Is there a way to check if a Dataman is empty before exporting to Excel

Is there a way to check if a Dataman is empty before exporting to Excel?  I don't want to update the Excel file if there are no records to be added.

Hi @Griz2, 

what you can do is to add a DM before the Export to Excel containing the following history:

If the DM will be empty Rulex will return an error (Action 5) and the Export to Excel won't compute otherwise it will export your data without any changes.

a very clever solution ... works perfectly ... thank you so much for the prompt response
