Why ControlCommand function is not working for the combobox

[sagirajuramaraju]

Hi,

I have a combobox with classname "TOraLookupCombobox1", function ControlCommand is not working if I mention the classname at the palce of ControlID. But the remaining functions "ControlClick, ControlSend, ControlGetText, ControlGetHandle" are working well with the same class name.

Why the controlCommand is not working can any one help me in this issue.

Some controls will resist automation unless they are the active window. Use the WinActive() function to force the control's window to the top before using ControlCommand() on these controls.

Certain commands that work on normal Combo and ListBoxes do not work on "ComboLBox" controls.

The classNN should be the first param not the third.

The first three params of ControlCommand should be the same as ControlGetHandle (if its the same control)

I tried with WinActive(), after using also it is not working is there any other way thanks in advance.

For ControlClick = ControlGetText("Import Options","","TOraLookupCombobox1") - Working

For ControlCommand = ControlCommand("Import Options","","TOraLookupCombobox1","SelectString",'ICN_IPD_MAP') - not working

ICN_IPD_MAP - what this?

ControlCommand() works only with standard Windows controls.

So if it's non-standard control then you must use ControlSend/ControlClick/ControlSetText
