Shared XML Api not returning records

Shared XML Api not returning records

 Sorry if this is a bit of a newbie question, I have searched the forum but not found an answer.

I have built up an XML rpc query :

<ZohoCreator>
  <application name="myapp">
    <form name="Client_Offer">
      <criteria>
        <field name="ClientID" compOperator="NotEqual" value="Frank" />
      </criteria>
      <range>
        <startindex>1</startindex>
        <limit>100</limit>
      </range>
    </form>
  </application>
</ZohoCreator>











ClientId is a string, I have used compops of EQUALs, NotEqual,Contains, NotContains (I would expect something back). If I try this on one of my own Apps I get returned XML with my records. If I try this on a shared App I get an empty set of records but a status of success. am I missing something?


Returned :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<response>
   <form name="Client_Offer">
      <criteria>
         <field name="ClientID" compOperator="NotEqual" value="Frank"></field>
      </criteria>
      <records>
      </records>
      <status>Success</status>
   </form>
</response>


Any help?
