It is exactly what I am looking for. I am actually using a Windows connection 
to do web scripting and was looking for a way to get the first section(9 or so 
places) and then from there I know the exact placement of checkboxes on the 
webpage.

Thank you again Thom.

Subject: RE: [talkbws] Programmatically determine Smart Sequence

Hi,
I am not sure I understand what you're asking. But I'll take a swing at it.

Let's say on a given screen you have an Ok button.
It's Smart find string is likely to be OK<Push Button>

If you were on that screen and connected and also executed
Smart.First
If Smart.Find("OK<Push Button>") then
                Debug.print smart.Sequence
End if

That would print out the sequence for that button.

That's a long way of explaining that Smart.Sequence property returns the 
sequence for whatever Smart represents.

Something you didn't ask, but worth pointing out. Sequences  (Smart or 
cGetWindow) are not unique identifiers for a given control. They simply are a 
string representation of a parent child relationship within the application:
T- top
2 - second child of the top
1 - it's first child
3 - it's third child
Etc....

This means a sequence is a valid way to locate the control only if you are on 
the screen that the desired control is on when it is used.

I was trying to see if it was possible to get the "T|...." Sequence from doing 
a text search.
