Issue/Introduction

The "search for use" function returns wrong results for calendar keywords. Actually the "search for use" function on calendar events gives back the same result as "search for use" on calendar objects.

AWI 12.2 and Java Gui behaves the same way.
Multiple Calendar Events of the same Calendar must be used in the same taks
It is NOT possible to execute "Search for Use" directly on the field "Task Calendar Conditions" if multiple events are selected.
Search for use can only be applied to a single calendar event from the list box.
Search for use will only return one line for the specific calendar event in a new frame

Problem observed in AWI 12.3 and 21.0

A) Multiple Calendar Events of the same Calendar must be used in the same taks
It is possible to execute "Search for Use" directly on the field "Task Calendar Conditions" if multiple events are selected.
If the user runs "Search for Use" on "Task Calendar Conditions" the application will as much new frames as there are calendar events.
Each frame will show each time as many lines as there calendar objects, in other words the same content will be opened n time the same browser panel.

B) If a user clicks on "Task Calendar Conditions" to open the listbox and runs "Search for Use" for a specific Calendar Event a message box shows up
"The object 'JOBP.SUPPORT_KB' has been modified. The Message Box 'Do you want to save changes before closing?" comes up without any reason because the user did not modify anything.
The user must click on "Save and Close" to be able to get the result of the "Search for Use"
The user selects a specific Calendar Event BUT the result shows for a line for each selected event from the same Calendar Object, the select Calendar Event who would be the relevant information is missing.
