    Hi,

     

    The OnUnexpectedWindow event is triggered only when TestComplete tries to perform some action over the tested application and this action is blocked by the modal window. That is, if your test code tries to .Activate, or .Click, or .Keys over some tested object and this is blocked by some other modal window, the OnUnexpectedWindow event will be triggered.

    Your code does not perform any UI-related actions (.SetText calls internal methods unlike the mentioned .Keys method) and thus the OnUnexpectedWindow is not triggered.
