I also still don't know why, when I record a test it looks like this:

sensorWorks["SensorWorksMain"]["MainMenu"]["Click"]("Project|New");

 

And when my co-worked records a test it looks like this:

sensorWorks.SensorWorksMain.MainMenu.Click("Project|Open");

 

 

If you mean different syntax (["SensorWorksMain"] vs SensorWorksMain), this is because your project uses C#Script or C++Script as a scripting language, and your co-worker's project language is JScript. C#Script/C++Script use the bracket notation object["Property"] rather than dot notation object.Property.
