    You could use Execute to run code as string:

    strTableName = "SDTCode1"
Execute("Tables." & strTableName & ".Check")

    Or something like this:

    strTableName = "SDTCode1"
Set tblCheckpoint = aqObject.GetPropertyValue(Tables, strTableName)
Call tblCheckpoint.Check

     

    Or if you want to compare the same table to multiple objects, use the CompareWithObject method instead of Check:

    Call Tables.SDTCode1.CompareWithObject(Aliases.MyApp.Object1)
Call Tables.SDTCode1.CompareWithObject(Aliases.MyApp.Object2)

Have you tried using aqObject.CallMethod? What you can do is use a call to FindChild or Find on your "Tables" to find the specific child object, return that object as a varible, and then call the "Check" method.  something like ( am NOT well versed in VBScript so consider this pseudocode):

 

Set MyObject = Tables.FindChild('SDTCode1');
aqObject.CallMethod(MyObject, 'Check')
