Hi santi,

If "text contains" doesn't work for you, I could suggest that you consider creating a custom comparison based on regular expressions. You can easily divide the text into groups among non-printable characters and compare them. You can find more information on how to work with regular expressions in the following article:

Hey,

Can you show the script responsible for this piece of application?
Also, write where you download the text for verification.

  Some of those non-printing characters are a pain to actually match. You might want to simply replace the non-printing with an asteristk.

    Possibly that is the reason, can somebody from smartbear give some idea on this, incase they see these threads.

  I can not share more code (apart from what i attached in png with original message) reason being it's production code in my company, restricted by terms and conditions. Its simple aqobject property check for a panel, where cmpEqual showing something diffrent even though i copied exact text what test complete read from the panel.
  I am surprised how come Test Complete engine rejecting it even though both texts as same.

    The thing is... it's not EXACTLY. That's the thing... those arrows represent a non-printing character. So, if you copied and pasted the ARROW, that's a mismatch. What I've had to do in the past is go to Object Browser and grab what's there and use that rather than what shows up in the logs.
