    Hi, tristaanogre ,  

        I have summit this issue to customercare team , and this is a solve way:

       1. Uninstall TestComplete 12.
       2. Delete the "<Program Files>\SmartBear\TestComplete 12" folder.
       3. Restart the machine.
       4. Install TestComplete 12.

    It's valid for my issue.

    Very thanks!

What are you trying to map?  Can you give us anything from the Object Spy?  what properties are you trying to use?

 

Basically, what you are seeing is that you're trying to utilize a property that is an object and not a string or integer.  So, your property selection is incorrect.

    We will still need to see how TestComplete views the object on your workstation that is having the problem.  Using Object Spy, can you get us the list of properties and methods?

      Yes, it can spy the object and get the properties.

        Please pass them along.  Also, please indicate which property you're trying to use to map the object.
