    If you don't care what the index is, why specify it?  What if you made this call (with no index specification):

     

    Sys.Process("javaw").SwingObject("PendingTradeEditor", "CDS trade #251579 in Pit: CDS Factory")

Hi,

 

Thanks for the reply. We tried the methods specified in the url, still its not working.

It takes /d or such tokens as characters and is not able to identify.

 

Thanks,

Aman.

Hi,

 

The line of code in which we are facing issue is as follows

Sys.Process("javaw").SwingObject("PendingTradeEditor", "CDS trade #251579 in Pit: CDS Factory", i)

 

In the above line the last part "i" is  varying every time which has to be regularised.Its value is 0 or above

 

We used the following method to

Sys.Process("javaw").SwingObject("PendingTradeEditor", "CDS trade #251579 in Pit: CDS Factory", /d)

 

We also used .* and [0-9] instead of /d, none of these was successfull.

 

Could you please let us know how do we proceed?

 

Thanks,

Aman.

      Hi,

       

      The index property is mandatory and without this property the object does get identified

      for example , if the last index part is not given  as below the object cannot be identified.

       

      //Sys.Process("javaw").SwingObject("PendingTradeEditor", "CDS trade #251579 in Pit: CDS Factory",5)

       

      Thanks,

      Aman.
