Ranorex Forum

Hey all!

I am working on evaluating this tool, and have run into a snag.

On our web page, There is a table that appears as screenshot "S2". I want to uniquely identify the row of this table that is currently at the top.

However, I can't use the Xpath that Ranorex found because the TR it finds is a GUID that is uniquely generated each time the file gets uploaded.
How can I alter the xpath to tell Ranorex to only look for the TD for the filename and the TD for the status?

Hi,

Please upload a Ranorex snapshot (not screenshot) of the table in question. It would be much easier to help you with snapshot, because it contains much more detailed info about the GUI

If you ALWAYS want the first row you can change the path for the TR element to this:

/tr[1]

You don't have to keep the path the Ranorex generates if it isn't going to work for what you need.

Thanks so much everyone!

I actually figured it out, krstcs was right on point. That is the solution I went with.
