NoMatch Property

Indicates whether a particular record was found by using the Seek method or one of the Find methods (Microsoft Jet workspaces only).

Return Values

The return value is a Boolean that is True if the desired record was not found. When you open or create a Recordset object, its NoMatch property is set to False.

Remarks

To locate a record, use the Seek method on a table-type Recordset object or one of the Find methods on a dynaset- or snapshot-type Recordset object. Check the NoMatch property setting to see whether the record was found.

If the Seek or Find method is unsuccessful and the NoMatch property is True, the current record will no longer be valid. Be sure to obtain the current record's bookmark before using the Seek method or a Find method if you'll need to return to that record.

Note   Using any of the Move methods on a Recordset object won't affect its NoMatch property setting.
