FireEvent : Values are not populated when I click on Text Box

Hello 

 

I am facing  a typicall issue that if I enter the value in the text box and manually perform tab  or click outside the textbox then it populates  the other values on the screen 

 

But when I perform testcomplete normal click outside the text box,it  does not work out. 

 

I am not sure what needs to be done in this case. 

 

 

Regards,

    did you try Aliases.browser.HomePage.Frame.DisplayForm.ItemNumberTextBox.Keys"262626"

    Insted of SetText? Some times I had experience of SetText not responding.

    So, you click in the text box using the "Click" method on the text box component, correct?

     

    What do you do next?  Because, in order for the "OnExit" event to fire (which is what you are describing) you need to "leave" the component.  So, your next step in your test case should be either a "Keys" method to tab to the next field or a "Click" method to click on a different component.

     

    It would be helpful to see the code/keyword test that you're executing....

      Hello Robert, 

       

      It is just a textbox which I am entering the text, then if you do a manual step it should be tab or click outside that component,so that the other text are populated. 

       

      I did enter the text through testcomplete and then clicked on another text book and also tried with the Keys object for example below are the code tried 

       

      This is text box Entering the text  

      Aliases.browser.HomePage.Frame.DisplayForm.ItemNumberTextBox.SetText "262626"

       

      code tried :- Clicking on another text box

      Aliases.browser.HomePage.Frame.DisplayForm.UnformattedTextBox.Click 

       

      another thing tried 

       

      Aliases.browser.HomePage.Frame.DisplayForm.ItemNumberTextBox..Keys("[TAB]")

       

      Both the option tried but it did not populate other text on the screen. 

       

      I dont know how to use OnExit event, if you can show me example then I can try and also suggest what other things I try in order to populate the other text. 

       

      Regards,
