Name Mapping Issue

We have one user who is having trouble with name mapping.  When he runs a Keyword Test recorded from another PC, no controls mapped from a different PC can be found.  When he records a control that was previously mapped, the control is mapped under a duplicate form name -- in the example below, the form previously mapped as "frmLoginSQL" is added as "wndTfrmLoginSQL".  He is running the same .exe with the same version of TestComplete (currently 15.63.22.7), with a similar Windows environment. 

Is there a setting we can change in TestComplete, or something in his OS we can check?

Thank you

 

  • Thank you for your reply.  It turns out, we needed to install a few desktop extensions.  Now the mappings have been corrected.

    Showing the name mapping does not provide us with much clue as to what is wrong. If you show the Object Browser together with the object properties, then we can clearly see how TC is identifying the object, and we can then recommend possible solutions.

    My guess is, that your environments are not exactly the same.
