Yes I think I reported this fror FindValue and it was fixed, but others not.
I probably didn't check further at the time. I noticed this as I removed the
check on VSET.Count, which I had put in before as a workaround. I shouldn't
have to though, first check If Not obj IS Nothing Then, and after If
obj.Count > 0 Then.

I put back this workaround again for now, so I am not in panic but as there
probably will be only 1 more update to 2.x it's nice if this is fixed.
