Windows Controls

[wildrob]

Hi all,

 

I am trying to write a macro to take me through certain steps of a webpage. I've used the Get Control command for a drop-down box on the webpage but on play back the macro is unreliable. I have taken note of what's in the Display info facility then refreshed the webpage, used the Get Control again and then compared them and found them to be different. Could this be the reason why on most runs of the macro the control cannot be found?

 

Thanks in advance, Rob.

Rob,

 

Many programs create different values for a Windows Control each time the program runs. This is not limited to web pages within a browser.

 

There are several techniques you can use to accomplish what you want to do. See my reply to another similar question here: How to Capture Status Bar Info?, What am I doing wrong

Many thanks Kevin, I'm sure I'll find the answere there.
