Thank you Colin_McCrae. I agree that it is somewhat inefficient but I am trying to avoid name mapping all together.
tristaanogre has a good point to narrow the search while pointing to the label object. What is the best way (without name mapping) to find the label (Gender)?
Well, without knowing exactly how the "Gender" panel shows up in the object browser, hard to give you specifics. My assumption is that "Gender" is in the innerText of a "div" panel. So, I'd do a FindChild to look for the container with that innerText (perhaps other properties as well to make sure you get the right one). Then, from that container, do your FindChild to get your "Select" control. It's two searches rather than one.
And see, that's where NameMapping give you the benefit. The two searches are going to take time, reducing performance of your overall test. NameMapping will give you improved performance if done correctly because the "search" that NameMapping does is in the compiled code of TestComplete and not in the interpreted code of your script. If you are adamently against NameMapping, then two FindChild calls it is.
