Remarks

For example, if

• the table is EcoResCategory ,

• the _matchingFieldId is CategoryHierarchy,

• the _matchingFieldValue is 12345678,

• the _strFieldId is Name,

• the _strValueExactMatch is "New Node",

• the _strValueFormatter is "New Node # %1",

• the _excludedRecId is 87654321,

then,

1. If the EcoResCategory table, excluding 87654321, has no record with CategoryHierarchy=12345678 and Name="New Node", the return value would be "New Node".

2. If the EcoResCategory table, excluding 87654321, has no record with CategoryHierarchy=12345678 and Name="New Node # 1", the return value would be "New Node # 1".

3. If the EcoResCategory table, excluding 87654321, has no record with CategoryHierarchy=12345678 and Name="New Node # 2", -- return value would be "New Node # 2".

An exception is thrown if we cannot find one after exhausting all possibilities.The formatter should take one argument, which will be replaced by an integer starting from 1 and incremented by 1 when searching for non-match.
