[Rajesh]

Let us wait for Ankur's comment and see If he has any other option.

[Ankur]

In tools > options >windows aplications > advanced >record settings option> Menu

Select "Ignore menu initialization" record the menu part and let me know the result.

Hi Ankur,

I tired as u said, but didnt see any change,
script is recording as usual Window("Flight Reservation").WinMenu("Menu").Select "File;Open Order..."
and i did object spy on file;New orders and file;Open Orders, obects are geting identified as Window::Window

I didnot see any change.
I think it is not at all possible to use descriptive programming for WinMenu("Menu").

Let us know your comment.......

Guys,

After analyzed i got solution for this so please try this code in QTP 9.2 for Window menu option

Code:

dim A,B
set A=description.create()
set B=description.create()
A("text").value="Flight Reservation"
B("menuobjtype").value=2
window(A).Activate
window(A).winmenu(B).select "File;Open Order..."

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

[Rajesh]

it's great dude,

it's working fine but i am not able to understand "B("menuobjtype").value=2"
is this a property of the object, what does that 2 stands for.
if possible could you pls explain this.

[vadivelan]

I write this script based on the OR. In OR, for Winmenu description properties shown as "menuobjtype value=2".

Sorry Rajesh, I dont know exactly what "2" indicates. Because we implemented tool this month and we are in knowledge base.

If any body know please explain its useful for all.

hi ,
back on the forum after a vacation
The WinMenu(windows menu) test object does not have any test object properties.

The number 2 is called the index number of the item in the menu.

the index starts from 1 and continues.I.e
if you want to select the first item the index will be 1
if you want to select the second item the index will be 2
and it goes on

and the question is not clear you can use it like this

Code:

Browser("Customize Your Settings_2").WinMenu("ContextMenu").Select "<Item [b]2[/b]>"

[vadivelan]

Thanks Hari.. You mean that index 1 for New and Index 2 for open
is it ?

[hari]

yes ,

the above mentioned code is for WINDOWS browser

if it is to be used for the flight application then it can be used as

Window("Flight Reservation").WinMenu("Menu").Select "<Item 1>;<Item 2>" (TO SELECT FILE AND THEN OPEN)


in case of any thing else reply back

[Rajesh]

it's cool.......

Thanks man.....
