Hi,


Thanks for pointing out that you are working with a connected application. I didn't take this into account.


I guess, the Text property in your connected application holds a value of the Object type. To obtain a string value from it, you need to refer to a certain property of this object. Try to use Text.OleValue in your script code.

Try the following code:


Connect.Log["Message"](dataTree["Text"]["OleValue"]());


If this is not the property you actually need, inspect your application in the Object Browser to find out the needed property.


I hope this helps.
