    Hi Thanh,

    You have to change the following statment with the ProjectSuitVariable.

     comboBoxEx32["SetText"]("P:\\0001-Test Complete\\SFCL-13-62.502 - Test Complete\\");





    comboBoxEx32["SetText"]("P:\\0001-Test Complete\\SFCL-13-62.502 - Test Complete\\");



    Assuming that , you have defined a ProjectSuit Variable named PV_var and assingned "P:\\0001-Test Complete\\SFCL-13-62.502 - Test Complete\\" value to it.



    So your code would be like this

    comboBoxEx32["SetText"](ProjectSuit["Variables"]["PV_Var"]));



    [There might be few syntax erros in the above code as I do not have TC right now with me.]

Hi Vajindar



Thanks for your reply. I have read through the section you linked me too but it still doesnt really help me. Either that or I am not understanding it right. Here is a example of the type of test I am running:




function Test1()


{


  var explorer;


  var msctls_progress32;


  var comboBoxEx32;


  var edit;


  explorer = Aliases["explorer"];


  explorer["wndStart"]["ClickButton"]();


  explorer["wndDV2ControlHost"]["DesktopSpecialFolders"]["SysListView32"]["ClickItem"]("Computer", 0);


  msctls_progress32 = explorer["wndComputer"]["WorkerW"]["ReBarWindow32"]["AddressBandRoot"]["msctls_progress32"];


  msctls_progress32["BreadcrumbParent"]["ToolbarWindow32"]["ClickItemXY"]("Desktop", 11, 9, false);


  comboBoxEx32 = msctls_progress32["ComboBoxEx32"];


  edit = comboBoxEx32["ComboBox"]["Edit"];


  comboBoxEx32["SetText"]("P:\\0001-Test Complete\\SFCL-13-62.502 - Test Complete\\");


  edit["Keys"]("[Enter]");


  explorer["wndCabinetWClass"]["Close"]();


}



The part where I type the folder path "0001-Test Complete" is the bit that would change every year and would be great if I can replace that with something more global. I hope this is more specific.



Many thanks
