Dmitry,
I had to check this for myself. When you View Source on the topic they use a metacharacter #0150 instead of a plain minus sign in the text at that point. There are other regular old - characters elsewhere in the text. The #0150 is a longer dash than the minus sign, but that makes it "unfindable". You might want to click the send feedback link and let them know about the problem this caused you. I will post a message up in the MVP newsgroup about this too.
>You are right, I missed it. But something is strange the way Find works in the Help. When I saw your message this morning, I went back to VFP 8 help and scanned to look for -1 as parameter. I didn't see it (probably my old eyes <g>). Then I pressed
to open Find window. I entered -1 in the Find window. But Find does not find -1 even though it is clearly there, in the Remarks section.
