'The following example retrieves an object repository's objects and properties,
'looks for specific test objects using several methods, and copies a test object
'to another object repository.

Code:

Dim ImageObj, PageObj, RepositoryFrom, RepositoryTo

Set RepositoryFrom = CreateObject("Mercury.ObjectRepositoryUtil")

RepositoryFrom.Load "C:\QuickTest\Tests\Flights.tsr"
RepositoryTo.Load "E:\Temp\Tests\Default.tsr"
Function EnumerateAllChildProperties(Root)

'The following function recursively enumerates all the test objects directly under
'a specified parent object. For each test object, a message box opens containing the
'test object's name, properties, and property values.

Code:

Dim TOCollection, TestObject, PropertiesCollection, Property, Msg

    Set TOCollection = RepositoryFrom.GetChildren(Root)

    For i = 0 To TOCollection.Count - 1
            Set TestObject = TOCollection.Item(i)
