    when I click on the EH section of the component I get these options

     

     

    They can only call scripts

     

     

     

    SmartBear has confirmed to me yesterday that you can only call scripts, although you can create a script that calls the KW test these can not be called directly

     

    SB has suggested that, since the UserForms are not the most frequently used tool this functionality is not lightly to change

    - it is a limitation that can easily be worked around and good to know this is the only option available here for now

Hi,

 

> I can use the OnClick event to call a script test but NOT A KEYWORD test

Can you provide your code for OnClick event?

My expectation is that it must be possible to use KeywordTests object as suggested by mattb.

      Hi,

       

      Ah, I see now...

      Yes, only script routines can be assigned as event handlers for both User Form events and Project events (like OnUnexpectedWindow).

      Thank you for the detailed update and reference to Support's reply.
