    Hi Pasumarthi,


    In TestComplete 8.0, use the following approach:



    Sys.Process("iexplore").ToURL "http://smartbear.com/products"


    Does it work?

    Hi,


    if  the browser is already opened then it is working fine


    You are absolutely right. This method lets you navigate the running instance of Internet Explorer to the specified web page. If you need to launch the browser automatically, add it to the Tested Applications collection and then use the code from your previous post.

    Hi Pasumarthi,


    There is an unnecessary letter ("r") at the end of the browser name. Try using the following code:




    Browsers.Item("iexplore").Run "http://smartbear.com/products"


    Does it work?

    Hi,


    Please clarify a few things:


    1. Which version of TestComplete are you using?

    The fact is that the described approach was introduced in TestComplete 9 and doesn't work in TestComplete's previous versions.


    2. Which edition of TestComplete are you using (Enterprise or Standard)?


    Thanks.

    hi lukina,



    if  the browser is already opened then it is working fine, but till now am asking how to launch browse through test complete.



    Call TestedApps.iexplore.Run(1, True)     is working fine for launching application.



    any way thank you so much for suggesting me how to enter URL in Address bar.



    Thanks
