Definition
HRESULT IProfileService::GetProfile(VARIANTsValue,BSTRbstrType,VARIANT_BOOLbReturnError,IProfileObject**ppProfileObject);
Parameters
sValue
[in] A VARIANT that contains the primary key value.
bstrType
[in] A BSTR that contains the profile schema type.
bReturnError
[in, optional, defaultvalue (-1)] An optional VARIANT_BOOL.

Error Values
The Errors property stores the collection of errors encountered in the last Profiles resource operation. For more information, see IProfileService::get_Errors.
Remarks
If the optional bReturnError parameter is set to True (-1) and the specified ProfileObject object is not found, an error message, E_PS_PROFILE_NOTEXISTS, is returned instead of a ProfileObject object.
If the bReturnError parameter is set to False (0) and the specified ProfileObject object is not found, an empty ProfileObject object is returned without an error message.
Properties with the IsCached attribute set to False are not loaded by this method.
The Fields property of the returned ProfileObject object provides access to the profile properties.
Use the GetProfileByKey method to retrieve a profile by specifying a key member name/value pair and schema type.
Call the Initialize method before you use this ProfileService method.

The ppProfileObject parameter contains valid data only if the method completes successfully.
