Finds the next row in a table that matches specific search criteria and moves the cursor to that row.

HRESULT FindRow(
LPSRestriction lpRestriction,
BOOKMARK BkOrigin,
ULONG ulFlags
);

Parameters

  • lpRestriction
    [in] A pointer to an SRestriction structure that describes the search criteria.

  • BkOrigin
    [in] A bookmark identifying the row where FindRow should begin its search. A bookmark can be created using the IMAPITable::CreateBookmark method, or one of the following predefined values can be passed.

    • BOOKMARK_BEGINNING
      Searches from the beginning of the table.

    • BOOKMARK_CURRENT
      Searches from the row in the table where the cursor is located.

    • BOOKMARK_END
      Searches from the end of the table.

  • ulFlags
    [in] A bitmask of flags that controls the direction of the search. The following flag can be set:

    • DIR_BACKWARD
      Searches backward from the row identified by the bookmark.

Return Value

  • S_OK
    The find operation was successful.

  • MAPI_E_INVALID_BOOKMARK
    The bookmark in the BkOrigin parameter is invalid because it has been removed or because it is beyond the last row requested.

  • MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND
    No rows were found that matched the restriction.

  • MAPI_W_POSITION_CHANGED
    The call succeeded, but the bookmark used in the operation is no longer set at the same row as when it was last used; if the bookmark has not been used, it is no longer in the same position as when it was created. When this warning is returned, the call should be handled as successful. To test for this warning, use the HR_FAILED macro. See Using Macros for Error Handling.

Remarks

The IMAPITable::FindRow method locates the first row in the table to match a set of search criteria described in the SRestriction structure pointed to by the lpRestriction parameter.

Usually, FindRow searches forward from the specified bookmark. The caller can set the search to move backward from the bookmark by setting the DIR_BACKWARD flag in the ulFlags parameter. Searching forward starts from the current bookmark; searching backward starts from the row prior to the bookmark. The end position of the search is just before the first row found that satisfied the restriction.

If the row pointed to by the bookmark in the BkOrigin parameter no longer exists in the table and the table cannot establish a new position for the bookmark, FindRow returns MAPI_E_INVALID_BOOKMARK. If the row pointed to by BkOrigin no longer exists and the table is able to establish a new position for the bookmark, FindRow returns MAPI_W_POSITION_CHANGED.

If the bookmark passed in BkOrigin is either BOOKMARK_BEGINNING or BOOKMARK_END, FindRow returns MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND if no matching row is found. If the bookmark used in BkOrigin is BOOKMARK_CURRENT, FindRow can return MAPI_W_POSITION_CHANGED but not MAPI_E_INVALID_BOOKMARK because there is always a current cursor position.

The PR_INSTANCE_KEY (PidTagInstanceKey) property column is required for all tables, and all implementations of FindRow are required to support calls seeking a row based on PR_INSTANCE_KEY.

Notes to Implementers

The type of prefix searching performed by FindRow is only useful when the search follows the same direction as the table organization. In order to achieve the required behavior, the comparison function implied by the RELOP_GE passed in the property restriction structure should be the same comparison function on which the table sort order is based.

Notes to Callers

You can use FindRow to support scrolling based on strings typed in by the user, especially in list boxes within address dialog boxes. In this type of scrolling, users enter progressively longer prefixes of a desired string value, and you can periodically issue a FindRow call to jump to the first row that matches the prefix. Which direction the cursor jumps depends on which direction the search is set to run.

To use FindRow, a bookmark must be set. The string search can originate from any bookmark, including from the preset bookmarks indicating the current position and the beginning and end of the table. If there are a large number of rows in the table, the search operation can be slow.

Use a restriction to find a string prefix for scrolling as follows. For forward searching on a column sorted in ascending order and for backward searching on a column sorted in descending order, pass a property restriction structure in the lpRestriction parameter with the relation RELOP_GE and the appropriate property tag and prefix, using the format tagGE prefix.
