Wild card within object repository

Post by EugeneF » Mon Sep 26, 2011 11:28 pm

Is it possible to use wild card with Object Repository?
If so, how to do it?
I tried ".*" with no success.

I had -

cell[@accessiblename='Address Row 6']


and I changed it for -

cell[@accessiblename='Address Row .*']

Anything wrong?
