    OK... instead of a strict if..then, there is an operation in keyword tests called "If object".  You should use that... and you'll detect "if this object Exists/Visble/Enabled" perform something... then the "Else" operation can operate from that.  

    The way you have it written you have "If the object = true"... but that doesn't work... it's not the OBJECT that you are checking to see if it's true, it's some state of the object... like Exists or Visible...

Yeah, I'm not understanding exactly what you're trying to do, either.  Do you have code you can post or screenshots of your keyword test you're building so we can see what logic you're attempting?

Ok. So i have a ReceiptSearch Button which is i the keyword ButtonIekotiKvito.

Then i push it it depends on the settings which one will appear Receipt1(Kvito Paieska_Nr_Z keyword) menu or Receipt2(KvitoPaieskaInvNr keyword) menu.

The object in the If...Then statement is Receipt2 menu.

So what i need is then i change the settings i want to check which one of the Receipt1 or Recipt2 is turned on right now and execute the test. Am i clearer now. Or do you need any addiniotal information ?

        Instead of "Visible" in the If Object, use "Exists"
