    If you already have FullName of an object why are you searching for it again?

    You can just make something like that:

    eval(strChildFullName)["Click"]();

Hi again Hanya,

 

I’ve been thinking about your suggestion.  I understand that I can use the eval function to access an object even if I have not accessed it before, for example (considering I currently know already the fullname property of the object strChildFullName):

 

ChildObject =  eval(strChildFullName);

 

if (ChildObject ["Exists"])

{

//Any child object method or property would be accessible here

pChildObject ["Click"]();

}

Else

{

            //Object doesn’t exist

}

 

Here the key for me is the time it takes to perform the instruction:

 

ChildObject =  eval(strChildFullName);

 

I’ll check if it works, and if so I’ll measure the time it takes.

 

Thank you very much again for the idea.

 

Regards,

Jose Perez.
