SectionExists property returns unexpected value

For some reason SectionExists property returns me an unexpected value:

Watch :   : ActivePage.Shapes.Item("Dynamic connector.811").SectionExists(visSectionProp, True) : -1 : Integer 

while both Shape Data window and ShapeSheet shows no signs of this section existence nor I have created it.

Any ideas about the reason for such a behaviour?

one possibility is that the shape you're querying via code is not the shape you're examining manually.

Thanks Al!

But how is it possible when they have identical names?

Is it returning a value of -1?

-1 = false i.e. section doesn't exist.
