Exist a way to use Find Method without PropNames, only with PropValues?
Documentation:
Hello, exist a way where I can use Find Method, without check in source code the Property Name? Lets check the following example, in a grid of Delphi Application:
I don't know the property name, but making manual test I see the text <Sem dados para exibir> inside the grid.
Reading documentation we can see the:
PropNames [in] Required Variant
PropValues [in] Required Variant
But only in PropValues we can use special char * or ? and regular expressions:
"Values can contain asterisk (*) or question mark (?) wildcards, or regular expressions. The asterisk (*) wildcard corresponds to a string of any length (including an empty string), the question mark corresponds to any single character (including none). To specify more complicated parts of the value, use regular expressions."
Hi,
I think that your current approach is way better then search by text and no, it is not possible to use .Find() without property names.
P.S. For me this seems to be logical - object itself does not contain any text but only object property can contain some text. What property to consider when searching for the text? So you will need to iterate through all or some of properties. I believe that you can write such iterator yourself if you really need it. Also, it is quite possible that the text that you see does not belong to the grid but is some another object created and displayed by grid when it is empty.
