Getting started with the project

As with any UiPath project, we will start by opening UiPath Studio and creating a new project. Perform the following steps:

1. Open UiPath Studio and choose the New Blank Process option on the initial screen.
2. In the main workflow, let's start by adding a sequence called Main Sequence. 
3. Next, we'll add a Try-Catch block to manage exceptions.
4. Within the Try block, add a new sequence called Config Sequence. This is where we will add the activities related to reading in values from the configuration file.
5. Within this sequence, we need to add a Log Message that says Open Config.xls and store the values. So far, your main workflow should look like this:

Before we configure our main workflow further, let's do some groundwork that's required for the project.
