Test Complete is not giving row and column count of VCLObject("GridPanel").

Test Complete is not giving row and column count of Grid object of Delphi Application. Whenwver I try to do the same it gives the following error:

Error: 
An error occurred.
Possible reasons:
1. The application stopped responding.
2. The application was compiled incorrectly (see the Open Applications topic in the help system).
3. An error occurred in TestComplete.

Technical information:
97 0x80020006 (Unknown name.) Levels

    Hi,

     

    -- Version of TestComplete?

    -- Version of Delphi?

    -- Tested application bitness?

    -- Component name and Window Class of the grid?

    -- Was the tested application prepared as required (https://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/74507/) and was correct file with debug information used? (I.e. wasn't occasionally used the debug information from some previous build?)

      Hmmm.

       

      I don't have any that match your type of grid unfortunately.

       

      I have a .NET type "GridControl" which the wColumnCount and wRowCount work fine.

       

      And I have a Delphi grid of type TwwDBGrid. But that uses completely different properties to get the column and row counts. The column count is simple, but the row count has to be obtained from the underlying DataSet object which populates the grid.

       

      Is your Delphi app compiled with debug info on? I can't use the TwwDBGrid without it as I need access to native methods and properties that are only exposed if compiled with debug info. (If your executable uses BPL files - like DLL's - these need to be embedded into the exe at compile time. Without them, TC can't access a lot of the native stuff)

    I might use this logic to calculate which I have used for one of the grids which dont have any row or column count properties in Test complete. My grid was in a desktop application but I am sure you can use it on web application grid  as well. I know its a roundabout process but it works if you have no choice in Test complete.

    function ReturnOleGridRowAndColumnCount(var RowsCount:integer;var ColumnCount:integer;grid:OleVariant);
var
count,colCount,rowCount,i:integer;
endOfData:boolean;
colVlu:string;
begin    
  count := 0;
  colCount := 0;
  endOfData := true;
  while (endOfData) do
  begin
    try            
      colVlu := Evaluate('grid.TextMatrix[0,' + VarToStr(count) + ']');            
      count := count + 1;
      colCount := colCount + 1;           
    except                        
      endOfData := false;          
      ColumnCount := colCount ;      
    end;
  end;
    
  rowCount := 0;
  count := 0;
  endOfData := true;
  while (endOfData) do
  begin
    try                 
      colVlu := Evaluate('grid.TextMatrix['+VarToStr(count)+','  + '0]');     
      count := count + 1;
      rowCount :=  rowCount + 1;            
    except                                              
      endOfData := false;     
      RowsCount := rowCount;                
    end;
  end;
      
end;

     

     All you need here is some Property like Grid.TextMatrix[Rowno,ColNo]
