Alternative for GetVisibleText method???

[Amit Singh Chauhan]

Hi All,

I have a problem in my script an error message occurs for read only exel sheet.

I am using GetVisibleText method to get the error message and then check it.
But this functions well for some iterations and not always gives correct value.

Is there any other way to get the text from error message window.

I have tried GetROproperty("text") it returns title of the window and not the text present in it.

Hi Amit,
Why don't you try with Text Output Checkpoint. I had the same scenario and i used the mentioned above.

Is there any other way to do the required operation.

Hi Amit,
As far as my knowledge there are three ways of capturing values from message window
1) Use GetVisibleText
2) GetROProperty("text")/GetROProperty("innertext")
3) Using Text Output Checkpoint/Standard Output Checkpoint

Thanks,
I first two options are not working for me, but the last one is.

There is one more way to do this
use GetTextLocation method...
