Error Object does not exist - Why??

Hi Tanya,



There is one ApplicationControlHost in the Aliases and one in the Mapped Objects, but there are two Objects in the Object Browser.  The properities in Object Browser have the correct/expected values.  My guess is that the mapped/alias doesn't know which one of the objects applies.  The dilemma is how to make this work?



I found a similar post (that you answered) and made sure I had the visible on screen properties set and changed the Refresh to RefreshMappingInfo and found success!



Thanks for all of your persistence and help!

Same Problem by testing Excel-AddIns with PopUps...Is TestComplete not able to work witj PopUps?



Error in Excel: 

An error occurred while accessing the "SetText" method or property of the "FocusTextBox" object.

The object or one of its parent objects was not found.

Same Problem by testing an AddIn for OneNote. PopUp was opened by TestComplete but can not be pointed.

An error occurred while accessing the "ClickItem" method or property of the "ComboBox" object.

The object or one of its parent objects was not found.

Object That Was Not Found

Alias:	Aliases.dllhost

Could it be the object is not on the screen or visible at the time you try and intereact with it? The log might indicate if this is the case.  Or maybe you need to refresh the object tree - you could try a call to Aliases.RefreshMappingInfo(); before trying to interact with the object.



You could wait for the object to be VisibleOnScreen before trying to interact with it.

Thanks for your answer. As you can see in the picture, the form is loaded and the curser is already located in the textfield. TestComplete is still waiting for the object. So there is no delay of time.



How to refresh the tree??

Hi Hannah,

Hannah - http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/58142/

I have the same message, different circumstance, I think.



Testing a .Net/C# application (actually a suite) with TC 10.20.933.  One view has a link to launch a second view.  

Unit A

selects record

if record is found, click link to launch other view (unit B)

Unit B

selects record

attempts to change values

-stops on object not found...



After the error, I use the Object Spy to see why it cannot find the objects.  The objects show in the name mapping, but the Object Explorer cannot show the values.



I've read several posts, but haven't found a workable solution.

Hi Gregory,

Yes, it didn't change anything. I can run each unit independently, but not in series.  If I am understanding what I am looking at, it seems that TC is thinking it's still on the first view.
