    Hi,

     

    You need to return required value from the function like it was advised by Vinicius.

    Like this:

    //OpenFB unit

    function openurl()
    {
      var browser;
      var page;

      Browsers.Item(btChrome).Run("https://www.facebook.com/");
      browser = Sys.browser();
      page = browser.Page("*facebook.com*");
     // page.NativeWebObject.Find("name","websubmit","BUTTON").Click();  this code is working when executing from unit OpenFB

     

      return page; // <== added line
    }

     

    //Unit B

     

    //USEUNIT OpenFB
    function mandatory_check()
    {

        var page;

     

        page = openurl();   // <== OpenFB. is not required because of //USEUNIT OpenFB directive
        page.NativeWebObject.Find("name", "websubmit", "BUTTON").Click();
     }

    Maybe you can go with something like:

     

    Unit 1:

    function returnObj(){

    return Sys.Process('app').Caption('text');

    }

     

    And inside the unit 2 you can call the function.

      Thanks

      I am able to call the function of another unit but not able to use  the variable/object declared in another unit.

    Hi,

     

    Can you post here your code so that others can see exact implementation and be able to share their ideas?

      Hi Alex

      My code is as below

       

      //OpenFB unit

      function openurl()
      {
        var browser;
        var page;

        Browsers.Item(btChrome).Run("https://www.facebook.com/");
        browser = Sys.browser();
        page = browser.Page("*facebook.com*");
       // page.NativeWebObject.Find("name","websubmit","BUTTON").Click();  this code is working when executing from unit OpenFB
      }

       

      //Unit B

       

      //USEUNIT OpenFB
      function mandatory_check()
      {
          OpenFB.openurl();   //  --this line is working it is calling the above function
         OpenFB.page.NativeWebObject.Find("name","websubmit","BUTTON").Click();  // giving error says "Cannot read property 'NativeWebObject' of undefined  "
       }
