I have a trouble. I want to know the index of an object during run time. Suppose there are 100 buttons on a webpage with same properties. How to get the index of 50th button during run time?

Please help

If the application is ready, you can find out the index using:

1. Loop with Index increments + Highlight
2. ChildObjects
3. HTML DOM length etc.

In some apps, the Index can be dynamic so the above techniques may be required to create robustness.

This site is very help for QTPers.can u plese explain the same code if the excel has ifooter installed i changed the code as

Window(“regexpwndtitle:=TCS iFooter”).WinObject(“regexpwndtitle:=&Cancel”).Click
but it showing the runtime error as not able to find the parent object

Thanks,

How do we identify the index of an object if it the application is not yet developed. Also if the application is developed and there are many objects of the same type having same properties, then how do we know the index without having to go through the source code and doing trying to guess the index.

Set noedit=myp.ChildObjects(myedit)
print noedit.count

If noedit.count=0 Then
print “no links”
else
For i=0 to noedit.count-1
print noedit(i).getroproperty(“index”)
print noedit(i).getroproperty(“name”)

Next

a=browser(“name:=.*”).page(“title:=.*”).link(“location:=1″).getroproperty(“name”)
print a

End If

Dim a
Set myp=browser(“name:=.*”).page(“title:=.*”)
Set myedit=description.Create
myedit(“micclass”).value=”link”

Set noedit=myp.ChildObjects(myedit)
print noedit.count

If noedit.count=0 Then
print “no links”
else
For i=0 to noedit.count-1
print noedit(i).getroproperty(“index”)
print noedit(i).getroproperty(“name”)

Next

a=browser(“name:=.*”).page(“title:=.*”).link(“index:=1″).getroproperty(“name”)
print a

End If

In your For-Loop, all you need to do is to refer the item-index for the collection object (Noedit) to retrieve the ‘name’ property for each Edit. Simply add this to your loop:

Print Noedit(i).GetROProperty("name")

How to get the “Index” value of any element using DP.
I tried with google.com to get index values for WebEdit fields. There are total 5 WebEdits. But i am not able to print there index values i.e 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

Code is as below:
Set myp = browser(“title:=.*”).page(“title:=.*”)
Set myedit = description.Create()
myedit(“micclass”).value = “WebEdit”
myedit(“html tag”).value = “TEXTAREA”

‘Get all webedit fields
set Noedit = myp.ChildObjects(myedit)
print Noedit.count

If Noedit.count = 0 Then
print “No WebEdit fields were found”
else
For i=0 to Noedit.count-1
print “Webedit # ” & Noedit.count & ” = ” & myp.webedit(myedit).GetROProperty(“name”)
print “~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”
Next
End If

Kindly guide,
Thanks
