Answer / naresh

I dont know exact answer but,

Yes. In descriptive programing, we dont use object
repository. we give proprties of the object in order to
recognise it uniquely, in script.

Plz correct me if i'm wrong

Answer / megha s iyer

Descriptive programming is doing programming giving
description for an object in terms of value of the
properties of the object and recognising the object during
runtime without storing the object and its properties in
object repository.
For example:
If you want to identify the winedit object with the value
100 and ie editable in it we can write descriptive
programming for this in the below given manner:
Set objdesc=Description.Create()
objdesc("Class Name").value="winedit"
objdesc("text").value= "100"
objdesc("Enabled").value=True
Window("XYZ").Winedit(objdesc).Set "123"

Answer / bharat

Maha Lakshmi, you are wrong we can recognise objects using
descriptive programming as suggested by naresh and megha or
the other way round is we can specify the properties in the
statements itself like

Browser("name:=Google").Page("title:=GoogleHome").Link
("name:=Search").Click

You can see about Descrition.Create() in QTP help.

ya without object repository the object can identified by creating the desription for that object

ie, for example we have one edit box

oedit("any property").value="WinEdit"(for windows application) or "WebEdit"(for webapplications)

Browser("").page("").WinEdit("").set"XXXXXXXXXX"
