    Haven't used keyword tests in years but try the following:

    In your keyword test when you "Select object" make sure you select the entire form NOT the text box it's self.

    1. Click next, then add property name "ReadOnly" value "false".
    2. Add a second property like "Name" and "*thenameofyourtextbox*" (with * wild cards).
    3. Click next and select the Keys method (if you make it to this point it found an object)
    4. Enter the value you want to key in
    5. Click Finish

Hi Ryan and thank you for giving me some tips!



Yeah, all other properties are same ,execpt for isReadOnly. So I tried with your example (but in keyword test, since I'm not so familiar still with coding stuff etc).



In FindObject I entered a textbox class name property and isReadOnly=false property. It didnt found any methods under it, so I guessed that some other stuff is going on - I got an error message Alias. ... .parentObject of textbox cannot be found.



What to do with that...?? Do you have any idea?
