    Is your button visible on the screen at the time the line of code is executed?  TestComplete can't see the button if it's off the edges somewhere.

    The other thing that happens to us sometimes is that there is a second copy of our application running in the background (left over from another session).  Check your Task Manager and make sure there's only one of the app you are testing.

    There's a setting you could try... right click your project -> Edit | Properties and turn on 'Ignore overlapping window'
