Assign value to variable in datapool

Is it possible to assign a value to a variable in the datapool through RFT scripting.
I tried with the following:

dpSrting("UserName") = "TestUser";
// This is throwing error message "The left hand side of an assignment must be a variable.

dpSrting("UserName").value = "TestUser";
// This is throwing error message "The field String.value is not visible"


Can anyone help me with how to solve this issue?

Can you tell me what is RFT scripting.
I familiar with vb and java scripttings.
but not RFT.

Hi Rajaputra,

RFT scripting is basically scripting using an automation tool called as RATIONAL FUNCTIONAL TESTER.(RFT)

RFT provides 2 scripting bases - Java version and .NET version which supports VBScripting syntaxes. RFT was introduced as Rational Robot could not provide proper support to java swing applications.

Also RFT has a better user interface and user-friendly nature as compared to Rational Robot.

Hi Guest,

from what I understand to your error message stating that "The left hand side of an assignment must be a variable", did you try this.....

var strName = "TestUser"
strName = dpSrting("UserName");

Cheers.......
