Hi, I was reading some Interview question on net I found somebody mention to use getcolumncount method for counting column.But I've tried in Qtp but couldn't found anything.Please clear this doubt.If this property do exist then how to use it.

Thanks in advance,

Yes it exists:
GetParameterCount -This will return the total number of columns in the run-time Data Table sheet.

[newqtp]

Means there is no such GetColumnCount instead of that there is GetParameterCount ??

[Ankur]

Yes!

[SmithaQTP]

Yes getcolumncount exist

ex:

Code:

Browser("Browser").Page("Page").WebTable("acura").ColumnCount(1)

here it will fetch the no of column present in first row of acura webtable

HI ,

Actually datatable will have maximum limit of 256 columns only(Maximum worksheet size—65,536 rows by 256 columns)
And by the by ,there is no method(i.e getcolumncount) for retrieving the coulmn count of datatable...
