Hi John,
I think you have issues with your xpath. Please double check it or try with different locators.

yeap you are right! i fixed the xpath and it worked! thanks! i didn’t know that the xpath for a create and edit function is different even though they are technically the same page.
Thanks!!

Hi. I am running into a similar issue where my script is unable to set text. The xpath is //input[@id=‘DateofBirthSearch’] just as it says in the screenshot.
