Hi Bai,



All variables in script languages are of OleVariant type (with possible sub-type differentiation as string, integer, etc.). Thus no type conversion in scripting languages is possible.



In your case you should use the WaitAliasChild function (see TC help for more details) and code like this (untested, off top of my head):



If (Aliases.Sys.processCMD.WaitAliasChild("CMDClass", 200).Exists) Then

  Log.Message Aliases.Sys.processCMD.CMDClass.FullName

Else

  Log.Warning "CMDClass child was not found"

End If
