Hi Gowtham,

You can spy the window in w32 mode and use the 'Select Menu Item' action in the navigate stage and pass menu path as "{File}{Open Application}" .

Thanks

Hi Gowtham,

If I understand your original question correctly you are able to spy the File menu item, in that case you should be able to use the Global Mouse Click Centre. If that doest work you will have to use the Region mode and identify the button and then use the Mouse Click Center.

Thanks

Hi @Gowtham Bopaiah,

Can you try to use the following steps once:

1) First activate the application window using a 'Win32' element as the first action by using 'Activate' function.

2) Then use 'Global Send Keys' function on the 'Application Root' node (top-most element in your element tree) where you need to use the {ENTER} command.

Reason being Global Send Ke​​ys or Global Send Key Events work most of the time perfectly with application root node elements only. As per your use case though, I believe the challenge is that you need to somehow select an option called as 'Open' within file menu if I am correct. 

For this I would suggest, try clicking the file menu and then use down arrows {DOWN} and {ENTER} command together if you are not able to click on the button directly.
