Access denied error ( Visual Studio and WatiN )

Question

I\'m using the WatiN testing tool with Visual Studio 2005. When I try to select a value from my list box I am getting an \"access denied\" error.

Answer 1

I noticed this happens if you try and select a value that is already selected.

You can work around this with a pre-check:

if(_sel_ddlPeriodFromDay.GetValue("value")!="1")
   _sel_ddlPeriodFromDay.SelectByValue("1");

or maybe use a try catch?

try{_sel_ddlPeriodFromDay.SelectByValue("1");}
catch{}
