Please help me by selecting the above Success only.

I have tried the below:

Element Text Should Be  ${SUCCESS}    Success

Variable.txt

${SUCCESS}    xpath =  //*[@id='ctl00_PageBody_ViewCommandsGrid']/tbody/tr[2]/td[4]  

Error in RIDE:
 FAIL : ValueError: Element locator 'xpath = //*[@id='ctl00_PageBody_ViewCommandsGrid']/tbody/tr[2]/td[4]' did not match any elements.

we can't possibly help with answering why a particular xpath didn't work without seeing the html it is supposed to match. I'm not sure if it matters, but you might try removing all of the whitespace around the `=` (eg: `xpath=//...`) – Bryan Oakley Dec 28 '16 at 22:04
Based on some of your other questions, the ID you have given (ctl00_PageBody_ViewCommandsGrid) looks like what has been used for classes. However, I echo Bryan's comments, as I've asked you in other questions, you need to provide more detail for us to effectively help you. This is also a very domain specific issue, you're best placed to help yourself by trying things to learn your application better. – shicky Dec 29 '16 at 10:14
