Hello william5065,

The container is recognized as a win32 element. Also, the elements within the container are identified with unique RxPaths. We are not exactly sure what’s causing issues while automating the calculator on a Win7 machine.

Robert

Hello

I can not valicate the Text 'Static'of Element 'CalcFrame', just using image to valicate it value.
can you tell me how to valicate it by using text value?


Thanks

Hello William,

It should work when you use the following RxPath: "/form[@title='Calculator']/?/?/container[@instance='0']/text[@controlid='150']".
The value is stored in the "Text" attribute of the specific Text element.

Markus
