    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...

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"
