Counter not working in do-while loop?

var counter= 0;
do{
aqUtils.Delay(100);
counter+= 100;
obj = pagereport.NativeWebObject.Find("contentText", "Resource Activity Volumes");
}
while (! obj.Exists && counter<=5000);

 Assuming you mean to use counter as a timeout of sorts....I think you mean to have && not || counter < = 5000.

I think your problem is this line

obj = pagereport.NativeWebObject.Find("contentText", "Resource Activity Volumes");

Try this:

var obj = Sys.Browser("yourbrowsername").Page("yourpageurl").NativeWebObject.Find("contentText","Resource Activity Volumes");

You need to tell Test Complete the path to the object you are looking for, so in the example above we start with your local machine and drill down to the page, then search the page for the element your require.

Take a look at the documentation below to undertsand the browser and page objects:

page objects: support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/55305

browser objects: support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/55711

Thats it Ryan. The loop issue is solved but the counter doesn't seem to work because, TestComplete "delays" until 'Activity Volume' is displayed on the screen. Meaning [ Counter<= 5000] condition is true all the time. 

Hi Chrisb, the result is same even if I give full path to the object. Variable pagereport is actually giving the path name. I highly believe that the counter isn't working.
