Description

FindCaption is a TListItem function used to find the first list item in the container which matches the specified search criteria. The return value is the TListItem instance with a Caption that matches the specified Value, or Nil when a match is not found.

No actions are performed in the method, and the return value is Nil, when there are no list items in the container (Count = 0), or StartIndex is not valid.

FindCaption visits the TListItem entries in the container to compare Value to the Caption in the list item. Use Partial and PartStart to indicate if (and how) partial matches are performed. Case is significant in the comparison.

Use FindData to locate a list item which contains the specified binary value in its Data property.
