    Hi,

     

    The best, fastest and most reliable solution is to talk to Development and ask them to provide unique and stable identifiers for all UI elements that your test code needs to work with.

    If this is not an option, then you still may try .FindAllChildren() and use the fact that the first subtotal section will be the last element of the returned array. This is not documented, but this is how .FindAllChildren() and .FindChild() work for more then decade since their implementation.

    Hi,

     

    Not sure I got the question...
    The code seems to be fine...

    To get the first UI object just use the last found one:

    Set myObject = arrobjects(UBound(arrobjects)) ' last found object corresponds to the first UI one

    What I am missing?
