    Chilkat DLLs have 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Which one do you have installed? TestComplete is a 32-bit app, so it needs the 32-bit version.


    I've tried and installed the "Chilkat 32-bit ActiveX MSI Installer" (on Windows 7 64-bit). Both

    CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Imap")

    and

    Sys.OleObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Imap")

    work fine:

     

    So, make sure you have the 32-bit version installed and that it's registered properly (maybe rerun the registration as admin).

Hi,

   Going through your post now I understand that you are using a third party .dll or .ocx file. Have you registered that dll in testcomplete?

 

Can you follow the below steps to make sure the component is registered

  • Launch TestComplete ->Open your project Suite
  • Navigate to Tools -> Current Project properties -> CLR Bridge
  • There is an option to Browse GAC files select that option and wait till the tool enumerates the available GAC'S. In the registered components list search for your 3rd party dll. Select the checkbox and click ok.

The second option is to

Select browse ->Files Option ->Navigate to your DLL location and select the dll.

 

Once you have registered your dll you can access the methods using .Net assemblies.

 

Please refer to the link below:

Hope this might be of some help :)
