Use the Ordinal identifiers (index) property...each of the objects will have a different index value

QTP identifies the object in following manner-


1) First with mandatory and assistive property. If these are not sufficient
then "Ordinal Identifier"
2) By using "Smart Identification".


In your case you have different object of same type. First they have
different names, so object will be identified easily.
If there are more than one object with the same name than use "Ordinal
Identifier - Index".
With "Index" property object will be identified.

We can use the descriptive programming for identifying the 6th checkbox from a bunch of checkboxes on a page.

Dim obj_ChkDesc

Set obj_ChkDesc=Description.Create
obj_ChkDesc(“html tag”).value = “INPUT”
obj_ChkDesc(“type”).value = “checkbox”

Dim allCheckboxes

Set allCheckboxes = Browse(“Browser”).Page(“Page”).ChildObjects(obj_ChkDesc)

allCheckboxes(5).Set “ON”

As index value start from the value '0', so 6th object is having index value '5'
