Embedded Browser and Web Forms

Hi, I'm encountering a problem in filling web forms with RT 4.4 .I'm sure that I'm overlooking something simple, but here is the problem sequence:1) Command: Run URL. (This works: The URL opens in the browser).2) Command: Fill Web Form. After I enter the URL in the "Web Address" field, and then hit "Load"...3) nothing happens. Is there supposed to be some kind of embedded browser?4) "Form to Fill" doesn't find anything, and it seems to require a value.5) Entering 0 doesn't seem to help.Actually, I'm sure the error occurred in Step 2, so I'll stop here. (Apparently "WebObj.WebObj" isn't being found).Any suggestions?Thanks!

What URL?
RoboTask uses COM object of Internet Explorer (embedded IE). It exists in any version of Windows.

Hi,Firefox is my default browser; RT is successfully opening it and getting to the URL.I'm a bit confused, though:Do I again enter the URL in the "Web Address" box, even I've already entered it in the Run URL step, and it has successfully reached the URL?And what should appear on the screen after I hit "Load"?Thanks!

Actually, I'm sure the error occurred in Step 2, so I'll stop here. (Apparently "WebObj.WebObj" isn't being found).

It seems you need register WebObj in your system. It is unregistered by some reason.
You can install RoboTask again and fix problem. This object will be registered during installation.

Also you can do this manually.
1. Go to RoboTask folder. By default it is
"C:\Program Files\"
or
"C:\Program Files (x86)\"

2. Run the command line
RG WBObject.exe /regserver

When I navigate to the folder RT is in, and then use Run to open"G:\Program Files\Utilities\RoboTask\RoboTask\RG WBObject.exe /regserver"Windows reports that it can't find the file.

Check the folder name, please.
It seems it is incorrect:
G:\Program Files\Utilities\RoboTask\RoboTask

In addition:
if you don't want to change folder you should use full path for WBObject.exe. Like this:

"G:\Program Files\RoboTask\RG.exe" "G:\Program Files\RoboTask\WBObject.exe" /regserver"

What OS do you use? If XP you don't need to use RG.exe. Use such command line:
"G:\Program Files\RoboTask\WBObject.exe" /regserver"

Why do you not want simply to reinstall program?

>Why do you not want simply to reinstall program?I got RT from your special on Giveawayoftheday.com... so I assume that the license doesn't extend to RT 5.0 .Here's the folder address:G:\Program Files\Utilities\RoboTask\RoboTaskThe command line I'm using,cd /"G:\Program Files\RoboTask\RoboTask\WBObject.exe" /regservermust have an error; the system isn't finding the file...

must have an error; the system isn't finding the file...

This error message indicates that:
- you have specified incorrect path
- file doesn't exist.

Check this.

Yes, I've retyped this several times (I'm unfamiliar with using the command line and DOS, and have made many errors). After (apparent) correction, though, it's still sayingfilename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect
