Hi,

In order to automate a site and get around using the date picker ive found I can remove the 'read only' part of the input on the site which allows me to input the date, however i cant seem to automate this.

Im trying to change :

<input id="fromDatePicker" placeholder="" readonly="readonly" style="width:130px" type="text" class="hasDatepicker">


to:

<input id="fromDatePicker" placeholder="" style="width:130px" type="text" class="hasDatepicker">


Ive tried using ie.document.getattributebyID("fromDatePicker").removeattribute("readonly") But i cant see, to get it to work.

for reference I'm using internet explorer

any help with this matter is appreciated, Thanks!

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Try this:
Code:
    IE.Document.getElementById("fromDatePicker").removeAttribute ("readonly")
