TC Isn't recognizing object correctly

I'm having a heck of a time with a control on our webpage being recognized properly by TC.



Here is the issue - if I map the control (It's just a link) to namemapping and on the "Map Object" window, click Highlight, it highlights it without issue.  If I click OK, and then right-click and highlight the control through namemapping, it says"The underlying object doesn't exist".  If I try to re-map it it won't let me because it says it already exists.



This is driving me crazy, since I can't seem to get around this.



Please assist.

    What happens if you right-click and highlight its ancestors - pnlTab, panel, pnlOptions? Do they exist?

    Misha - this was the right idea, I had an underlying object that was ambiguous.



    I wish there was a way to edit identification properties without the object having to be present.
