    You're still checking the Visible property of an object that doesn't exist which is the cause of the error. 

     

    In you if statement change Aliases.IC.databaseUpgrade.Visible to Aliases.IC.databaseUpgrade.Exists it should fix.

You're if statements are correct, but you're getting the error because you're checking for a property on an object that doesn't exist. When an object can't be found in test complete you get a stub object with a single property, Exists=false.

 

You should first check if the object exists, then check if it's visible. You could even set visible = true in your name mapping conditions and the only have to check for exists and not both for your if statement.
