I think what you might need to do is rather than have properties set to Constant values, use the Project Variable mode for the property in the NameMapping.

 

When you set the Project Variable in your code, then call Aliases.RefreshMappingInfo() and TestComplete should now recognise the object.

      Hi,

      To add a project variable as a mapped property value, do the following:

      • Select an object in the Name Mapping editor. You will see its identification properties on the right.
      • Select a property, press F2 and then click the ellipsis button in the property value cell. The Edit Property Value dialog will appear:
      • ProjectVar
      • Select Mode = Project Variable and specify the variable you want to use to identify this object.

      In your test, use the following code to assign a project variable:

      Project.Variables.Var1 = "some value"

      If you use a keyword test, add the Set Variable Value operation - http://smartbear.com/viewarticle/56300/
