Message - The window is invisible and thus cannot be activated

This may take a while to explain....



Performing a keyword test and, at a certain point, I get the above message.

The first part of the test works fine and populates the screen as seen in screen shot 1 (don't worry, the patient info is fake).



The test then clicks the "Alias/ID" tab, and the screen changes as expected. See screen shot 2.



The test should then select a value from the pulldown list labelled "Alias type". However, the TestComplete status shows "Waiting for cboanon_29", waits for a while, and the test then aborts.



The test log shows the message above, with the following in the remarks box:



Aliases.PiMS.frmPatientEdit4.frpPatntDetails_10.cboanon_29

(Sys.Process("PiMS").VBObject("frmPatientEdit").VBObject("frpPatntDetails_3").VBObject("cboanon_6"))



Object Spy identifies the object as the right one, and that it is visible. See screen shot 3.



Now I'm at a loss. Can anyone help resolve this?
