combo box item not found

Are you wrapping the year in a string delimiter?

SelectItem("1962")

Thanks for the quick response Robert!



I am new to Test Complete so bare with me.



The dropdown view source looks like this:



<option selected="selected" value=""></option>

   <option value="1995">1995</option>

   <option value="1994">1994</option>

   <option value="1993">1993</option>

   <option value="1992">1992</option>

The thing is, for working with drop down items, if you pass it a string, it will try and match the string to the items in the box.  If you pass it a number (like 1962), it will try and find the item that corresponds to that.  I'm sure you don't have one thousand nine hundred sixty-two items in your drop down so, if you passed it in as an integer, it would naturally return "item not found".

Robert,



    When I change 1962 to "1962"  I get Cannot perform ClickItem operation.

Instead of ClickItem, is SelectItem available?

SelectItem is not available.  When I change ClickItem to SelectItem it says "The object does not support this property or method"

If a keyword test, could you post a screenshot of what you're doing?



If a script test, could you put your code up here?  That sounds just generally odd.  



Even if you're using a keyword tests, there's a script language that was selected.  What language are you using?

Hi Robert,



     I used value [set] instead of ClickItem and it works with dropdowns.

Thanks for your time and help.
