object browser

This may have been asked before,  Every so often i would have problems with internet explorer 8 recording.



This would record fine but playback always fails. keeps telling me:



There are several objects in the system that match the recognition attributes of the "iexplore1" mapped object.


This may cause the "Object not found" error.


Objects




Sys.Process("iexplore")


Sys.Process("iexplore", 2)


Sys.Process("iexplore", 3)



To solve the problem, you may need to modify mapping settings for the "iexplore1" object or one of its parent objects.


See Help for more information




So I go to the object browser and determine that i have 3 version of iexplore there.

Whenever I do record and play i make sure my ie tabs are closed, leaving only the app under test.



Is there anyway I can force the object browser to recognize the iexplore as 1 and not have multiple versions present?

This would solve my problem.



I even tried re-recording but when i use object spy, it point to one of the other iexplore versions out there



sys.process("iexplore")

sys.process("iexplore",2)

sys.process("iexplore",3)



is there anyway i can suppress the other other 2 versions of iexplore?
