Set Value of dropdown box in browser

[Snickers]

I am using MS12 but have tested using MS14 on internet Explorer v 11.0.9600
Findobject wizard does not set the value of the drop down box

On the webpage, there are three drop down boxes. I need to get the available values from the box and then set the value to one of those values

Is this possible using MS12 or MS14? It doesn't seem to work using findobject wizard in MS14
Is this possible using VB?
if so, what would be the code for getting possible values and then setting one of the values?

Thank you greatly for any assistance!

Hi,

To do this you need to use the IE set of commands which control IE and let you access the HTML elements. You can then set the value of a drop down and/or extract the HTML behind it to e.g. get an array of option values.

Have a look at:

this feature works for setting text box values, but it doesn't want to set the value of a drop down box selector.
For example, it will successfully fill in the address, address2, and city, but it will not set the value for the State, which is selected in a drop down box. I haven't been able to get it to set the value for any drop down boxes.

Are you able to share the URL so that we can test? There may be something unusual about it, or some trick needed. If you can't share it here feel free to email support.

Hey Snickers,

Populating the state works for me MSv14...
Try this:

Code: Select all

Let>url=https://www.printrunner.com/portal/my/address-book/
IEGetFromURL>%url%,ieRef
IEFormFill>%ieRef%,{""},{""},{"state_or_province"},#INDEX#:10,0,ie_res

'Or

Let>state=FL
Let>url=https://www.printrunner.com/portal/my/address-book/
IEGetFromURL>%url%,ieRef
IEFormFill>%ieRef%,{""},{""},{"state_or_province"},%state%,0,ie_res

Are you able to set the value of a dropdown box such as changing the Quantity dropdown box?
