Data table field value failing
Question ID: 105383

I’m trying to use my data table to pass data in my script and then use that data to pick a value from a list that drops down.

The value looks good and I see it’s in the list, but when I run the test it just sits there and doesn’t select the value I’m wanting.

I checked the spelling and it looks okay.

Anything else to check?

Check you value of the cell in the data table you are trying to work with. More than likely you have a preceding space or possibly space after the value in the field. These spaces have been known to cause QTP not to be able to find the value in a drop-down list. You can delete them manually in the cell or you could look at trying a trim function for the data, such as:

myListVal=Trim (DataTable(''CellValue'',dtGlobalSheet))
Window(''Whatever'').WinList(''Whatever2'').Select myListVal

or

myListVal=DataTable(''CellValue'',dtGlobalSheet)
Window(''Whatever'').WinList(''Whatever2'').Select Trim(myListVal)

and so on...
