Tanya,

 

Thanks for the information. It looks like PowerBuilder 12 supports Microsoft Active Accessibility (MSAA), which is needed. We are currently using PowerBuilder 11 so I will have to hold off on evaluating this for now.

 

If there's anyone out there who has implemented this, I would love to hear some specifics concerning what needs to be done on the PowerBuilder and Testcomplete sides.

 

I saw mention of the PowerBuilder Object AccessibleName property in the link that you sent. If we need to modify the AccessibleName property of all of our PowerBuilder objects in order to implement this, that might be just too risky. I am hoping that it can be more automatic on the PowerBuilder side.

 

Thanks

Hi Bill,

Try just adding pbdw* to Tools > Current Properties > Open Applications > MSAA, and see if it helps.
