TestComplete detects the table control itself, but none of the internal row/cell objects are exposed

I have a table-like control similar to the one in the screenshot. Using "Add Object" in TestComplete, I can capture the main table object. (object: Aliases.Icad.dlgAECStylesManager.Item.SysListV...

Hi all,

I tried all the ways you mentioned but it didn't work

Now that you have provided a screenshot of the Object Browser, I can see that it's not a WPF application, but most likely a Windows 32 application!

Here's a Windows 32 application that I've created, having SysListView32 control, again similar control to yours -

If you enable MSAA, TestComplete will see more objects

MSAA enabled in Project Settings

If you enable UI Automation, TestComplete may see more/less objects

UI Automation enabled in Project Settings

You can use and modify the appropriate Property parameters to retrieve the data you require (either ask ChatGPT or research the Microsoft website on how to do this)

Or you could try use the Methods provided

More information can be found here Working With List View Controls in Desktop Windows Applications

Note, although UI controls look similar, the technology they use will most likely be different. So there's no real answer to this - you will have to study the Properties and Method exposed by TestComplete and see what you can use.
