Hello Natasha,
this requires a coded solution. I've attached the test that gets the job done. Here's the actual code I use with comments explaining each line of code:
I hope this helps, let me know if you have any additional questions.

Hi Natasha,
this requires a very minor change. The value TextBlock has the following tagname:
So we need to verify that the element we want to select has that AutomationId. Here's the code that does it:
Here's how this integrates in the complete coded step:

Hi Stoich,
I noticed this solution is very slow. For a combobox with 50 comboboxItem the solution delay is 4 minutes.
You have any idea how minimize the delay???

Hi Natasha,
the slowness is there because we're waiting for this:
to timeout which takes about 10 seconds.
We can change the so-called 'Find Strategy" in order to change this and speed things up. Check out the following blog post on setting Find Strategy:

The new code should look like this:

Hi Stoich,
This solution didn't find the element.
I send you my code and the test.
Thank you.

Hi Natasha,
Test is attached. All the best,

I reworked the code so that you don't need to change the Find Strategy. Currently setting Find Strategy doesn't seem to work 100% as expected which causes the code I sent you not to work. Here's the revised code:
// Navigate to : 'http://localhost:11960/SilverlightApplication2TestPage.aspx' ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://localhost:11960/SilverlightApplication2TestPage.aspx"); app = this.ActiveBrowser.SilverlightApps()[0]; // radcombobox: drop down 'Open' action. String textBoxToSearchFor = "val6"; Pages.SilverlightApplication2.SilverlightApp.ComboRadcombobox.ToggleDropDown(); //Open drop down. //We access a pre-generated variable to access the element because we added it to the Elements Explorer //Go through each item in the combobox and find the one that hold the required textbox foreach (Telerik.WebAii.Controls.Xaml.RadComboBoxItem cbi in Pages.SilverlightApplication2.SilverlightApp.ComboRadcombobox.ItemElements) { // FrameworkElement fwe = cbi.Find.ByText(textBoxToSearchFor); FrameworkElement fwe = cbi.Find.ByExpression(new XamlFindExpression("textcontent="+textBoxToSearchFor)); if (fwe != null) { Log.WriteLine("Found "+fwe.ToString()); if (!fwe.AutomationId.Equals("content")) { Log.WriteLine("Found desired text but not in 'content' textbox"); continue; } else { cbi.Select(); break; } } }Test is attached.
