presumably you tried 

@ie.text_field(:name, 'J_LDESC').value='yes'

and that didnt work?

This did not work for me as my webpage has J__LDESC(the textarea in question) 
as the required field and so, on clicking submit button, I get the error 
message to fill in the field. Any other suggestions? Suman      try using the 
value method: @ie.text_field(:name, ..).value='some text' the set method fires 
all appropriate evens, and generally obeys what the web page is doing ( ie not 
letting you enter something that is hidden) but value= will get round that Paul
