Need help retrieving innertext of a link - pujamukho - 04-29-2011

Code:
Set link_item = Browser("ClaimCenter v6.0.x").Page("Reserves").Frame("Set Reserves").WebTable("Page Number Table").ChildItem(1,2,"Link",0)
msgbox link_item.GetROProperty("innertext")
The following line above outputs the value "Next"

Dim innertextvalue
innertextvalue = link_item.GetROProperty("innertext")
msgbox innertextvalue


This time the msgbox outputs blank.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. Why is the innertext not being saved to the innertextvalue?

Appreciate your help!!

Hi,
I could not find any issue here... i thought there could be a typo in the vairable name.. but it is correct only.
Please try this .. You would see 2 message boxes..both should display same value...

Code:
Set link_item = Browser("ClaimCenter v6.0.x").Page("Reserves").Frame("Set Reserves").WebTable("Page Number Table").ChildItem(1,2,"Link",0)
msgbox link_item.GetROProperty("innertext")
Dim innertextvalue
innertextvalue= link_item.GetROProperty("innertext")
msgbox innertextvalue

Hello thanks for the response.
I tried what you had suggested but I get the same result.
msgbox link_GetROProperty("innertext") prints "Next" (which is what I expected)
msgbox innertextvalue prints nothing

Any further ideas with what the problem might be?
The object class for link_item is Link

Thanks

Try removing Dim STATEMENT from the code. ie directly assign value to the variable. and also try with first declaring the innertextvalue = "" statement. Hope this works.
