Error Values
This method sets the Number property of the global Err object to S_OK (&H00000000) to indicate success and to standard COM error values to indicate failure. For more information about standard COM errors, see Standard COM Errors. Additional information may be available using the global Err object. In particular, the Description property may contain a text description of the error.
Remarks
This string contains the fields (from the Bid table) used as criteria for selecting the auction winners when equal amounts are bid for an item. The string is added to the ORDER BY clause of a SQL string passed to the database for selecting the winners. The default string is "desired, modified_date". This means if two bidders bid the same amount, the bidder requesting more items wins. If still tied, the bidder placing the earliest bid wins.
