When you record an operation on an object, QuickTest adds
the appropriate test object to the object repository. After
the object exists in the object repository, you can add
statements in the Expert View to perform additional methods
on that object. To add these statements, you usually enter
the name (not case sensitive) of each of the objects in the
object's hierarchy as the object description, and then add
the appropriate method.But in descriptive programming it is
quite different.Let us see the below example.

Decriptive programming with an example on a webpage.

General programming:

Browser("Mercury Tours").Page("Mercury Tours").WebEdit
("Name:=Author", "Index:=3").Set "Uma Sankar"

Descriptive Programming:

Browser("Title:=Mercury Tours").Page("Title:=Mercury
Tours").WebEdit("Name:=Author", "Index:=3").Set "Uma Sankar"

The difference is quite very less. But is very important.

Note:If you specify a test object by its object repository
name after other objects in the hierarchy have been
specified using programmatic descriptions, QuickTest cannot
identify the object.

If any doubts please let me know.
