Newbie needs help with c# and automating a wpf application

Sep 17 2015 8:22 PM
this is my very basic code (i'm trying automate some tests on an application and am using messagebox to display my progress thru the app) I get passed "here 3" but I get stuck further with an error below code

1.Is there a way to highlight all the controls within eventTab2 (or any object that I nominate?like some sort of recursive get?) and also return the type of object it is with all it properties?
2. Could you explain the solution above so I can manipulate it (remember newbie)

THANKS!!!
