- Hi Brian,
You can also use a custom ClickItem function to click the Nth matching item. For example (assuming your project uses JScript):
/*
Selects the Nth duplicate item from the combo box.
Parameters:
ComboBox - the combo box object.
Label - the item text.
Index - the index (from 1) of the duplicate item to select.
*/
function ClickItem(ComboBox, Label, Index)
{
var ind = 1;
for (var i = 0; i < ComboBox.wItemCount; i++)
{
if (ComboBox.wItem(i) == Label)
{
if (ind == Index)
{
ComboBox.ClickItem(i);
return;
}
else
ind++;
}
}
}
In your keyword test, use the Run Script Routine operation to call this ClickItem function with the following parameters:
ComboBox: Aliases.browser.<page_name_and_name_of_the_select_element>
Label: item text
Index: 2
