How to always click on the record on the top of a table

Question

This is a table in my application.I want to always right click on the record on the top of the table, but during keyword test recording if I click on the order with ID 13532 and I add another record to this table on top.When I run this keyword test it only clicks on the order with ID 13532 even though it has gone down in the table i.e in the second/third row.Right now to resolve this issue temporarily I am doing the right click through coordinates which is not good enough as I run the test on different screen on which the coordinates may differ.What can I do to make it click on the top record?

Use the Object Spy tool to see what properties are exposed from your UI object. If it's a table control, you should then see property values of "row", "column" or "cell" something along those lines. You can then uses these property values to pick the exact row/column you want.

If you click on Advance View, it should show more information.&nbsp;
So it's a WPFObject of grdMultiLegView - multi grid view, and not a table view. Have a look at Working With Grids, and Working With Microsoft DataGridView. Refer to the coding examples, on how to go about selecting an item. You should then be able to achieve what you want.
