aris script Find function

Hello,

maybe anyone can help me. I am trying to find a String within an object attribute using the Find function:

var Items_Found = db.Find(Constants.SEARCH_OBJDEF, 22, Constants.AT_EXT_1, g_nLoc, search_Term, Constants.SEARCH_CMP_GREATEREQUAL);

This is not working, I never find any result. But if I search for Objects (typenum 22) and compare the search_Term to each object-attribute I find results. Normally for example the search_Term "test" has to be found in an object attribute "testing was finished". The problem seems to be with the compare flag, cause every other parameter is tested and works fine.

What is wrong with this code? Any idea?

Thanks in advance!

This is not working as well:

var searchItem = db.createSearchItem(Constants.AT_EXT_1, g_nLoc, "test*", Constants.SEARCH_CMP_EQUAL, false, true) //case sensitive, allow wildcards

var Items_Found = db.Find(Constants.SEARCH_OBJDEF,null,searchItem);

Hi Anja,

As for the first comment:

search_Term = "test*"

var Items_Found = db.Find(Constants.SEARCH_OBJDEF, 22, Constants.AT_EXT_1, g_nLoc, search_Term, Constants.SEARCH_CMP_WILDCARDS);

The second comment however should work.....
