View Mode

To view this method in the Object Browser panel and in other panels and dialogs, activate the Advanced view mode.

Result Value

The Prompt object that corresponds to an input box that the web page is showing.

If the page is not showing any input boxes, the method will return a stub object and post an error message to the test log. If the Error handling > On error or the Error handling > On object recognition error property is set to Stop current item or Stop project, TestComplete will stop the test run when the error is posted to the test log.

Remarks

To avoid errors when accessing an input box, you can use the WaitPrompt method. Then, use the Exists property of the returned object to check whether it is a stub object or an actual Prompt object.
