How to convert the Strings to Objects so that the actions can be taken on the objects

Hi All,

 

I am trying to pass the strings as part of the objects but it is object not found error.

For eg: 

I have a combo  box which as 17 items in it. I have written a while loop to loop through all the items and select them. After selecting them, I am trying to verify the object with the selected item. This object varies whenever while loop iterates.

 

pallet_selected = "Pallet"+IntToStr(pallete_number+1)

Regions.pallet_selected.Check(imageCaptureAreaForPallet)

 

Here the pallet_selected varies every time. How can I convert this string into the Object.?

    Try using the eval() method. For example,

    var obj = eval("Regions.Pallet" + IntToStr(pallete_number + 1));
obj.Check(imageCaptureAreaForPallet);

    Does this work for you in Python,

    x = 'print(55)'
eval(x)
