    Hi,





    It seems that the control you are testing is not supported. Please let me know the control's version, vendor, and the value of the 'ClrFullClassName' property. At the moment, I suggest that you try adding the 'WindowsForms*' class to the list of accepted windows and re-record a part of the script interacting with the control. You can find this list in the 'Open Applications | MSAA' section of the project properties page.

    Hi, here are the details you asked for:



    'ClrFullClassName' property value =BMS.LTD.Presentation.WinForm.Controls.LTDFindByTypeLookUpEdit

    Vendor = Black Mountain Systems

    control's version = 3.2.1.8979



    3rd party control : DevExpress

    devexpress version : Version 9.3.4



    could you please look into it ASAP. I am approaching the deadline.

    Hi,





    Did you try my suggestion to add the 'WindowsForms*' class to the list of accepted windows to be exposed via MSAA? Did you re-record the code interacting with the control after that? Let me see the code that was generated.





    However, if this suggestion does not help, you need to use native properties and methods of the control to interact with its internal objects. This means that you need to manually write script code. If you provide us with a sample application containing the control, we'll try creating sample code demonstrating how to set a value in the drop-down list.
