Newbie problem with sample Search_2003
I just installed Visual Studio .NET 2003, the sforce toolkit, and the samples for VB.NET
Good news: Login_2003 worked like a champ on the first attempt!
Not-so-good news: I am a bit confused on the behavior of the Search_2003 sample. It works fine if I enter an account name that exactly matches (e.g., "sForce"). However, if I enter a search value like "Un", it returns 0 items. Is this the expected behavior? I thought it would return a list of items that matched the search (e.g., "University of Arizona", "United Oil & Gas, UK", etc.).
Can somebody explain what is going on?
Thanks,
Ebez
Oops. I'm lame. Search works as expected if I use a "*" wildcard (e.g., search for "Un*")
I guess I was confused because I was looking at the 2.0 API documentation for search, which says that a phrase search is used, but it looks like the behavior is pre-2.0 (advanced search syntax). Is this correct?
Hi EBez,
Yes that is correct. Also, search requires at least 3 characters.
