Thanks Gary,
 
I will try that.  I was having a hard time selecting a button.  It just
doesn't seem to recognize it at all.

Janet,

i don't know if it would be any help but xpathexplorer is a big help for
tricky x paths. and my team and i ran in to an issue with badly formated
html code. we had an issue were webtest could not select a raidio button
because of how it was imbeded in a table imporerly. try running jtidy on
your code and making sure it is at standereds be4 uing webtest. i hope this
helps in some way.
