TransactionSearch Component
Properties Methods Events Configuration Settings Errors
The TransactionSearch component searches the merchant's PayPal account for transactions that meet the specified criteria.
Syntax
nsoftware.InPayPal.Transactionsearch
Remarks
The TransactionSearch component allows the merchant to search his PayPal account for transactions that fall within a date range, by the buyer's name or email address, and auction item number, among other search criteria. After calling the Search method, the component will contain limited information about each transaction that matches. These details are returned in the "Result" properties (i.e. PayerEmail, Status, etc). For more detailed information about the transaction the TransactionId property may be passed to the TransactionDetails component.
After calling the Search method, up to 100 exact and partial matches are returned. For example, a FirstName of "Jess" returns results for the names "Jessica" and "Jessie".
Please note that you must always set the StartDate before performing a search.
