How to automate download of a file(Save As) in internet explorer
When I tried to download a file in IE I can interrogate the Notification Bar, but not buttons in it. I have used parent controls and for Saving the file using method ClickChildByText with parameter "Save", Anyways I couldn't do the same for "Save As". Can anyone help me on this?

Have you tried writing a script that can interact with the buttons within the notification bar? If you're unsure of how to do that, here are two links that will help:

Hi,
I tried different approaches suggested in articles but I couldn't find a working method so I came up with my own.
1. Interrogate the notification bar wait for it to create.
2. Follow the screenshot. It works, every time.
Note: 'SendKeys' won't work when the PC/VM is locked.
