JavaTable Object
Description
A Java table.
IMPORTANT
The OpenText Functional Testing Java Add-in provides built-in support for several standard Swing JTable cell editor types. This means that by default, OpenText Functional Testing records operations on these standard cell editors in the same way as other table objects, using SetCellData statements. This default behavior can be modified if required. For more information, see the Java Add-in section of the OpenText Functional Testing Help Center.
Operations
The sections below list the built-in methods and properties that you can use as operations for the JavaTable object.
Note: You can also view a list and descriptions of the JavaTable description properties, for use in object repository descriptions, programmatic descriptions, checkpoint and output value steps, and as argument values for the GetTOProperty and GetROProperty methods.

IMPORTANT
When typing keys during a recording session, OpenText Functional Testing records the PressKey method when one or more hot keys (such as F-keys, Alt, and Ctrl) are used.
It also records the PressKey method for any typed key in a Java object that supports text editing, but does not support the Set method.
Example
Use the Ctrl-X and Ctrl-V Shortcuts to Cut and Paste (VBScript)'The following example enters text in an edit box and then uses the PressKey method to cut the word 'edit' 'and paste it in a different location using the Ctrl-X and Ctrl-V shortcut keys. 'Place the cursor at the beginning of the text box. Browser("Java Examples").Page ("Java Examples") .Frame("MAIN").JavaApplet("TextAreaApplet").JavaEdit("Text field").SetCaretPos 0, 0 'Enter a sentence in the text box. Browser("Java Examples").Page("Java Examples").Frame("MAIN").JavaApplet("TextAreaApplet").JavaEdit("Text field ").Set "Set the edit text." 'Select (highlight) the word 'edit'. Browser("Java Examples").Page("Java Examples").Frame("MAIN").JavaApplet("TextAreaApplet").JavaEdit("Text field").SetSelection 0, 8, 0, 12 'Cut the word 'edit' Browser("Java Examples").Page("Java Examples").Frame("MAIN").JavaApplet("TextAreaApplet").JavaEdit("Text field").PressKey "X", micCtrl 'Place the cursor at the end of the text. Browser("Java Examples").Page("Java Examples").Frame("MAIN").JavaApplet("TextAreaApplet").JavaEdit("Text field").SetCaretPos 0, 12 'Insert a space at the end of the text.

IMPORTANT
This method is not recorded. (Keyboard operations are recorded using the Set or PressKey methods.) The Type method is useful for entering a combination of text and keyboard modifiers. You concatenate text strings and keyboard modifiers using the ampersand (&) symbol. For example, you can enter: Type "Hello World" & micCtrl & "S"
To add this method to your test, use the Step Generator or enter it manually in the Keyword View or Editor. For more information, see the OpenText Functional Testing User Guide.
Note: Although the Type method is supported for most objects, if you enter a Type statement for an object in which a user cannot enter text, the method has no visual effect.
Example
Type Text in an Edit Box (VBScript)'The following example uses the Type method to type ABC in a Java edit box. Browser("Periodic").Page("Periodic").JavaApplet("Periodic").JavaEdit("Text").Type "ABC"
