Field API selectMatch() does not work

Hi.

I'm writing a simple search box extension that takes a value, selects the matches and moves to the next sheet with the selected values.  I don't need to display the matches.  So I'm trying to use the field API method selectMatch() but with no success.  The other methods of the field API seems to work.  I tried:

app.field("[Global Search]").select([600,601,602],true,true);   // works

app.field("[Global Search]").selectAll();  //works

but, 

app.field("[Global Search]").selectMatch("car",true);  // DOES NOT work.

The field has a lot of data with close to 650,000 entries.  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Elias

Would you mind taking a screenshot of your field's data? Maybe it's 'Car' and not 'car'?
