[VCOM] Search method doesn't return an object of Nothing when it should

[Joakim Schramm]

Hi,

This is 2.5.7 VCOM, and it has been put into Mantis as #2238

With some of the fld.Find methods, when a search fails, it doesn't return an
empty (Nothing) object, although the set contains no records. This same
error has been before and has now comeback (it was in 2.5.6 also). 

Example below:

Set ItrSearch = Nothing
Set mLink = mAtlasDB.Link(lnkCountryHasPlaces)

If Not CBool(SearchScope) Then
    Set col = mLink.FindLinkedAsBitSet(CountryID, tCountry, tPlaces)
End If

Select Case SearchCriteria
    Case 0&
        Set Res = fPlace.FindValue(PlaceName, col)
    Case 1
        Set Res = fPlace.FindStartsWith(PlaceName, col)
    Case 2
        Set Res = fPlace.FindEndsWith(PlaceName, col)
    Case Else
        Set Res = fPlace.FindContains(PlaceName, col)
End Select

In the search code above non of the fPlace.Find methods returns a record
because the place doesn't exists. However, fPlace.FindValue(PlaceName, col)
result in

Res = Nothing, while all the others return an object that that is NOT
Nothing, but still they contain no record.

Joakim
