Looping through table within the UI Selector

[vds1 (Vishal)]

I am trying to get text from element which looks like a table (or list) and i see a pattern as below

<wnd ctrlname='alertList' />
<ctrl name='Data Panel' role='client' />
<ctrl name='Bucket row 0' role='cell' />


<wnd ctrlname='alertList' />
<ctrl name='Data Panel' role='client' />
<ctrl name='Bucket row 1' role='cell' />


<wnd ctrlname='alertList' />
<ctrl name='Data Panel' role='client' />
<ctrl name='Bucket row 2' role='cell' />

The pattern here is Bucket Row 0 >> Bucket Row 1 >> Bucket Row 2

How do i pass a counter to the selector in order to save the element on a variable which will be tested for particular text existence?

Hi @Hibb , The ideal and the efficient way of using a dynamic variable in selector can be achieved by using String.format You can save selector in a string variable : varSelector = "<webctrl aaname='Chapter {0}' parentid='Week2_control' tag='A'>" varChapterName = "1" You can then use String.format(varSelector,varChapterName) in Edit Selector window. You can read more about this function VB.NET String.Format Examples: String and Integer - Dot Net Perls Hope this helps. Regards, V

<wnd ctrlname='alertList' />
<ctrl name='Data Panel' role='client' />
<ctrl name='Bucket row " + counter_variable+ "'  role='cell' />
