Few of the key differences between reusable actions and
functions here.

Passing Data

Actions - can only accept primative data types as
parameters (strings, integers, etc)

Functions - can accept arrays, dictionary objects and test
objects (i.e. Pages, Frames, WebRadioGroups, etc.)

Resource Usage

Actions - For each action, there’s a folder, three separate
vbs files, a local Object Repository, a subfolder
containing snapshots, an Excel spreadsheet, and a few
seconds of load time.

Functions - There’s the code contained in the Function, and
that’s all

API

Actions - You cannot insert calls to Existing Actions
through the QTP API, you can only do it through the
interface

Functions - You can attach Function Libraries to Test
Scripts through the QTP API

Return Values

Actions - Return values are difficult to understand and
read in the syntax

Functions - Return values work like they do in other
languages (i.e. as lvalues)

What we are looking for is to load properties of object dynamically as for our application the global repository will pretty huge. It will be really helpful to us if something similar to following functions of Winrunner is available in QTP. #Define descriptor auto strDesc; #set property in the descriptor Gui_desc_set_attr(strDesc,?Class?,?Edit?); --- put other properties #Add Edit box to GUI Map Gui_add(? ?,strWindowName,strEditboxName,strDesc);
