Find All Employees That Live in the Same City
Sub GetCellData_GetRowWithCellText_Example()
‘The following example retrieves the names of all employees that live in
‘the same city as John Smith so that he can arrange rides home with them.
‘First, the example finds the table row containing
‘”John Smith”. Then it checks the value of the CityColumnn cell to determine
‘the city in which John lives. It searches the table cells to find all other
’employees that live in that city. Finally it uses the GetCellData method to
‘return those employees names and, using a function, generates a list
‘containing those names.

CityColumn = 4
NameColumn = 2
‘Get the row number for employee ‘John Smith’
RowNumber = Browser(“CorporateEmployees”).Page(“CorporateEmployees”).WebTable(“EmployeesTable”).GetRowWithCellText(“John Smith”)
Set AccommodationsCity = Browser(“CorporateEmployees”).Page(“CorporateEmployees”).WebTable(“EmployeesTable”).ChildItem(RowNumber, CityColumn, “WebEdit”, 0)
TableRows = Browser(“CorporateEmployees”).Page(“CorporateEmployees”).WebTable(“EmployeesTable”).RowCount
‘Search for all employees that live in the same city as ‘John Smith’ and add them to his ride home list
For i = 1 To TableRows
Set CurrentCity = Browser(“CorporateEmployees”).Page(“CorporateEmployees”).WebTable(“EmployeesTable”).ChildItem(i, CityColumn, “WebEdit”, 0)
If CurrentCity.GetROProperty(“value”) = AccommodationsCity.GetROProperty(“value”) Then
