ClickButton

You use the ClickButton keyword to click on a button control present in any list or form applet or in any multi-value group or drop-down applet, and to click Close (the X icon) to close a pop-up window.

Signature

The ClickButton keyword supports the following signature:

ClickButton(AppletRN|ButtonRN,OK/CANCEL/NULL)

Note the following about the ClickButton keyword signature:

  • If the action is to be performed on Tile applets, then the SelectRecordInListApplet keyword should be used before the Click button.

  • You must provide OK and Cancel options in case a Delete confirmation dialog box is expected.

  • You must provide NULL for other buttons, even if a pop-up window or dialog box is expected. Other keywords will carry out any subsequent action on the pop-up window or dialog box.
