Hi,
In RM 4.6 I used Excel Example set Reader,Nominal to string and String text input to take the data in to RM from Excel sheet.Similarly which operators we can use to take excel data in to RM5 for Text mining.

Thanks

    Hi,
    this is really simple: The read excel operator does ... reading the excel file :) Then you can use Nominal to Text operator to change the value type to text and use the process documents from data operator to do the text mining preprocessing part, that was former done by the StringTextInput.

    Hi,
    you have to put the text processing operators INTO the Process Documents operator. This is a super operator, that contains a subprocess. You can go there by double clicking on it.

    Hello Ratheesan,

    Change the "Process Documents" operator to "Process Documents from Data"
