Hi anshoo, it is very useful techniques to write a dp for starters.
I am also giving some techniques for dp....
Here i am giving dp to click on a specified button....

using object repository

'''''''''''''''''''1st method'''''''''''''''''''''
window("flight reservation" ).winbutton( "update order").click 'common method

'''''''''''''''''''''2nd method'''''''''''''''''''''''
set wndobject=window( "flight reservation" ) ' assigning window object to an object variable
wndobject.winbutton ("update order").click ' following normal syntax ( click on a button)

''''''''''''''''''''''''''3rd method''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
set btnobject=window( "flight reservation" ).winbutton( "update order") ' assigning button object to an object variable
btnobject.click ' clicking on button using button object variable

''''''''''''''''''4th method'''''''''''''''''''''''''''
with window("flight reservation" ) ' using with statement .winbutton(" update order").click
end with

using dp:

'''''''''''''''''1st method''''''''''''''''''''''''Without Object Repsitory

window("text: =flight reservation" ).winbutton( "text:=&update order").click ' descriptive programming

'''''''''''''''''''2nd method''''''''''''''''''''''''''
set odes=description. Create ' creating a description object
odes("nativeclass" ).value=" button" ' assigning description to the description object
odes("text") .value="&update order"
window("text: =flight reservation" ).winbutton( odes).click ' clicking on button using the created description object

''''''''''''''''''3rd method''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
set odes=description. Create ' creating a description object
set btnobjlist=window( "text:=flight reservation" ).childobjects( odes) ' 'flitering the objects
for objindex=0 to btnobjlist.count- 1 propval=btnobjlist( objindex) .getroproperty( "text") ' get property value from object if propval="&update order" then ' compare property value btnobjlist(objindex ).click ' click on identified object exit for ' exit for loop after clicking on the button end if
next

''''''''''''''''''4th method'''''''''''''''''''''
public const wndflight="text: =flight reservation" ' assigning window object description to a constant
public const btnupdate="text: =&update order" ' assigning button object description to a constant window(wndflight) .winbutton( btnupdate) .click ' click on a button using description constants '''''''''''''''

If any body is having other techniques please post them...

Thank you

hi, i have been trying to get the text value of a webelement. i have written description for the object, fetched objects matching the description and used getroproperty to get text value: set objwebelement = description.create() objwebelement("micclass").value = "webelement" objwebelement("html tag").value = "td" set lists = browser("implement").page("useragingreport").childobjects(objwebelement) numberoflists = lists.count() for i = 0 to numberoflists - 1 dtlastlogindate = lists(i).gerroproperty("innertext ") if some action to be taken end if next but i'm getting error something like: this object cannot use getropropety function
