Hello All,
I am wondering if anyone can help please?
I am writing an Attachmate Macro which will open an intranet webpage, and will edit several values within a form before submitting the form. The problem I am having is discovering the name or ID of the certain form elements I want to manipulate. Several of the webpage elements have the same name, so I am unable to change their values. I don't have MS Front Page to help me steer round this.
I also thought about the possibility of having the Explorer page Tab through the relevant elements until it highlights the fields I want, yet I am unable to get IE to send the tab command, to the web page.
Can anyone help me expand either of these ideas please, before I go bald from pulling my hair out??
I have included a snippet of the intranet page, so you can view those fields with the same name.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.....
