OleObject in TestComplete 11.30

Hi,
Using Test-Complete 11.30 what can I do to make Test-complete connect to current running application (this application I use in my test) after a command Sys.OleObject(<application_name>)?
Just now Test-Complete starts another instance of application defined in command Sys.OleObject(<application_name>) independently of an existing one.

 

Thanks

        Hi,

         

        we had the same problem. Try this:

        dotNet.System_Runtime_InteropServices.Marshal.GetActiveObject("Excel.Application")

         

        Regards,

        Brigitte
