How to find text in a webpage and click a checkbox next to it

I need some help with a roadblock I have been having. I am using UiPath to find text on a webpage and click a checkbox next to it.

The issue I have is a, the checkbox is not aligned with the text, and b, the order that each one of the fields is placed in (WBC Count, MCV) changes each time I enter a new user. This means that right now, WBC count might be the first field, but for a different patient, RBC Count or Hemoglobin might come first. Thus, I need to navigate to a specific field (ctrl-f?), and then click the checkbox next to it. I am sorry if my question does not meet standards, I am somewhat new to UiPath and would appreciate any help I get. Thank you in advance.

PS: The webpage can only be opened using internet explorer. To access it, I needed to download something called a citrix receiver. I am unsure if this is a citrix virtual machine, but I just want you all to know the webpage is not loaded on chrome.

Hi @automations,
I’m afraid that in this particular case you need to work with OCR activities only. As you said you need to run citrix receiver before. This means that this website is shared locally on the citrix servers environment. By running receiver you are connecting to this environment and opening IE which comes from the server. The trick is that you think this IE runs locally on your machine but it isn’t :slight_smile: This is streamed IE from citrix server. As you are not able to install necessary plugin on citrix server (you are not the admin) the standard activities will be not able (probably) to catch selector that’s why OCR functionality is needed.
