FW: Getting Standard Text without text recognition

The code below shows how you can get the text from any standard object without using text recognition in Quicktest

Standard Examples

'Get text from a ListView - report style (for example, Windows Explorer)

msgbox Window("C:\Program Files\Mercury").WinListView("SysListView32").GetSubItem(1,2)

'Get text from a toolbar

msgbox Window("C:\Program Files\Mercury").WinToolbar("ToolbarWindow32").GetItem(1)

'Text of a message-box, the Static control is not in the object repository/shared object ' 'repository

set StatObj = Dialog("DlgTB").Dialog("DlgTB").Static("nativeclass:=Static","Index:=1")

msgbox StatObj.GetROProperty("text")

Web Example

' An example for a Web Table (in the Mercury Tour site)

Set Cell = Browser("Welcome: Mercury Tours").Page("Select a Flight: Mercury").WebTable("RETURN").ChildItem(3, 2, "WebElement", 0)

Msgbox Cell.GetROProperty("innertext")

Visual Basic Example

'Retrieving the text of a label in a VB form: (There is no Test Object for a label)

msgbox VbWindow("VBForm1").Object.Controls("Label1").caption

.NET Example

'Get the text of items in a CheckListBox (has no Test Object)

'Get run-time object reference

Set CustList = SwfWindow("Win").SwfObject(ìlst").Object

'Get Items collection

Set ListItems = CustList.get_Items()

'Get Items count

ItemsCount = ListItems.Count

'Loop over all items

For i = 0 to ItemsCount-1

text = text & ListItems.Item(i)

Next

ActiveX Example

' This example will retrieve the text from the Visual Basic Flight 1A sample application's flight grid

' This retrieves the flight number from the 3rd row.

VbWindow("VbWindow").VbWindow("VbWindow").AcxTable("Grid Control").Object.Row = 3

VbWindow("VbWindow").VbWindow("VbWindow").AcxTable("Grid Control").Object.Col = 0

msgbox VbWindow("VbWindow").VbWindow("VbWindow").AcxTable("Grid Control").Object.Text

Hi I tested your code for VB script, I got an error at line Set ListItems=CustList.get_Items()
I'm stuck in a similar scenario where i need to retrieve all the items in the combobox, My app runs on Devexpress controls, .net 4
Any help regarding this will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
