I changed my app by adding a few more files to search and now it doesn't
work at all! - once again. with or without "starting at top".
I can't find any references to how to use the list of matches returned when
"returning results" is selected. I can't access the "found matches" although
the error messages show that they exist and look like your
example: {found:true, found object:characters 22 thru 32 of text document 1
of
application "BBEdit", found text:"name=\"I1267"}  How do you get at this?
