Checkpoint field selector selects entire grid rather than a field on a line

Hi,

I'm starting to build one of my first tests. I'm testing a desktop application Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016.

 

During recording, I created a checkpoint. I selected the "Drag the target to an object". When I dragged the cursor to a section of the page that shows line details, the entire line details grid object was highlighted with the red line - I could not select a specific field on one of the grid lines. Of course, when I let go of the mouse button, the checkpoint thought I was selecting the entire grid.

Am I missing something? How do I select a field within a grid?
Screenshot showing the highlighting of the grid is attached.

Thx

Ron

    Hi all,

     

    For my particular app (Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016), changing the MSAA options does not work.  However, working with SmartBear Support, I was able to configure UI Automation in much the same way - Identify the object using Object Browser, then including its WndCaption in the list.
