    Thank you so much Martin for your reply. I am using VB scripting. The curly braces was to give example of file checkpoint used in smart bear web so i just paste it to give ref. Please do not consider this question relating to Java or Java scripting.

    Could you please elaborate on "Eval" option which can used in this case and help with an example.

What scripting language are you using for your code?  You're using a "Set" command... but you're also warpping it in curly braces like JavaScript....  So, hard to know.

If you're using JScript or JavaScript, you can write your code like so

function checkXML(xmlCheckpointName, xmlfilename){


    XML[xmlCheckpointName].Check(xmlfilename);

}

JScript and JavaScript and their implementation in TestComplete allow you to interchange between dot and bracket notation for objects.  So, you can leverage that as I did above to get to the particular child object of the XML based upon the string.

If you're using VBScript, you should use "Eval" and structure the string of "Eval" to use your checkpoint name.

      Thank you very much Martin. "Eval" option is working for me as VB Scripting option.
