Hi Guys
in Silverlight application, I would like to use element value from previous screen (Screen 1) in the current screen (Screen 2) see the attachments. The element value from the screen 1 is highlighted in Red. The element in screen 2 highlighted in Red too, the display value of this element in screen 2 depending on the value of screen 1, the value of the element in screen 1 is between 1 - 3 for each value there will be different display value in screen 2. I have tried to make the element in screen 1 as a variable and use it in screen 2, I have add script step and use If..else statement in the scripted statement, but the problem the value of the variable in screen 1 (data driven) not recognised in screen 2.

If you have any idea or example for this situation please let me know 


Best Regards
Talal

Hello Talal,

It sounds like you've already used the Extract feature on the Hierarchy Depth value on screen 1. Now double click that step and set the DataBindVairableName to HierarchyDepth.

To reference that variable in a later coded step, you'll need to Get the Extracted Variable in Code. Now you can use it in your IF statements.

Here's an example I crafted against http://random.org/. I set the Maximum value to 3 in the "True Random Number Generator" area on the right. Then I clicked the Generate button. Finally I extracted the value in the Result area and set the variable name to HierarchyDepth. Here's sample code from the coded step:

object myData = GetExtractedValue("HierarchyDepth");
string hd = myData.ToString();
 
if (hd == "1")
{
    ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://ask.com");
}
if (hd == "2")
{
    ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://bing.com");
}
if (hd == "3")
{
    ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://cnn.com");
}

You can easily replace the NavigateTo lines with the verification you'd like to perform.
