Try using a CSS selector to target the element within the iframe.

If you think it is a timing problem you can

1) loop while target element is nothing i.e. not set; with timeout to avoid potential for infinite loop

Dim t As Date, ele As Object, waitTime As Long
t = Timer
waitTime = 10 '<== secs
Do
    DoEvents
    On Error Resume Next
    Set ele = IEDocument.frames("IFRAME").document.querySelector("a[href=javascript:choose('Objektnummer, Referenznummer')]")
    On Error GoTo 0
    If Timer - t = waitTime Then Exit Do     '<==To avoid infinite loop
Loop While ele Is Nothing
Call IEDocument.iframe.execScript("Choose('Objektnummer,Referenznummer')", "JavaScript")

2) Set an explicit wait

Application.Wait Now + TimeSerial(0,0,5) '<== adjust 5 which is number of seconds
Call IEDocument.iframe.execScript("Choose('Objektnummer,Referenznummer')", "JavaScript")
