  Hi there,

  I’m trying to select a date from a Calendar using your example (with a table). However if I what to select a pre-selected date I can’t because on my app it will be displayed like [8] instead of 8 and ZapTest can’t find it. I tried to use a Try Catch to select another date case mine was pre-selected (not found) but no success because the catch never run.

  Any idea how to solve that?

  try{
Application("Myapp").View("SelDate").Object("Calendar").Table("Date").ClickCell(Datatable.Value("Date"));}
catch(e){
Application("Myapp").View("SelDate").Object("Calendar").Table("Date").ClickCell(Datatable.Value("Date"));}

  Hello nuno.seixas,

  There are 3 options you can try in order the Table object will recognize its specific cell:

  1. Add the Boolean statement “True” at the end of the code line, this will ensure the Table object will be set to handle a Web Calendar object type:
  Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).ClickCell Datatable.Value(“Date”), True

  2. Use the same “Clickcell” method’s attributes but this time instead of using the cell number use string such as:
  Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).ClickCell “[8]”, True

  3. Basically there are another “Clickcell” method’s attributes, which help locate the specific cell by its row and column, you can set them instead of the specific column’s cell text – For example today’s date (The 10th of July) in the Windows’ OS based calendar it will be the row 3 and the column 3, so if you’d like to click on it your code will be:
  Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).ClickCell 3, 3

  Hope this helps.

  Thanks,

  Hello SashaY,

  Thanks for your answer.
  Problem is, I never know if the date what I want to pick from the calendar has the [] or not.
  For example, if I want 4, I don’t know if in the calendar I have 4 or [4].
  I want something like if(4 exist) {sel 4} else { sel [4] }

  Thanks.

  Hello nuno.seixas,

  Basically you can add a similar condition as the following one:

  bFound = False
  intNumofRows = Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).GetRows
  inNumoftColumns = Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).GetColumns
  For i = 1 To intNumofRows
  For j = 1 to inNumoftColumns
  strCellText = Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).GetCellText(i, j)
  If InStr(strCellText, “8”) Then
  bFound = True
  Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).ClickCell i, j
  Exit For
  ElseIf InStr(strCellText, “[8]”) Then
  bFound = True
  Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).ClickCell i, j
  Exit For
  End If
  Next
  If bFound = True Then
  Exit For
  End If
  Next
  If bFound = False Then
  Application(“Myapp”).View(“SelDate”).Object(“Calendar”).Table(“Date”).Report False, “Cell Error”, “The cell ‘8’ or ‘[8]’ was not found.”, True
  End If

  Thanks,
