Actually, no, it returns the card number on which the database is found. You need that 
info for other DmXXX calls. DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator searches all cards... or 
rather will, someday, if we ever build a device with more than one card... ;o)

My guess is you're running into the onlyLatestVers bug fix. David Fedor sums up the 
difference in behaviour rather nicely:

  "In 3.0 and earlier, setting this flag while providing both
   a type and creator id could return you multiple databases
   (if there were in fact multiple with that type/creator
   combination). In 3.1, you'll only get one database which
   has the given type and creator... it'll be the database
   with the highest version number which matches the criteria."

Does this sound like the problem?
