SAP scripting findbyID

[waddoum81]

Hello friends,

I generated an SAP script and it runs perfectly fine when executed from the vbs file however after I convert it to Python, it keeps giving an error (619, 'SAP Frontend Server', 'The control could not be found by id.')... any suggestions? this is the part giving the error, its supposed to select a checkbox in a table in VA13 tcode... thanks!!
