Is it possible to skip dialog in a script when a Find doesn't find any records ?

Is it possible to skip dialog in a script when a Find doesn't find any records ?

(resulting in an empty "found set" but not interrupting the script, Instant Web Publishing compatibility required)

Thank you.

Someone might correct me on this but could you use the Error Capture and Get (LastError)

If [Get (LastError) = 401 ]

Do this instead....

End If

The problem is not that the script stops

- in FMP : I get a message box asking me if I want to continue event if there are no found record.

(anyway I only really care about what happens in Instant Web Publishing)

- in IWP, it just doesn't want to perform a Find that find no record, and it keep asking that I modify the find again and again. (I want to be able to perform a find that finds nothing)

Turn set error capture on. If you want to do something different if no records are found, do what grumbachr suggests (place it immediately after your perform find[] step). If no records are found, then Get(LastError) returns 401 when set error capture is on.
