does ListView have a search feature?

I'm just wondering if there is a way to search a listview? Just need to know if there is already a function or something for it, I couldnt find anything myself....

u mean serch a list box??

ListBox1.Items.Contains()
it will return true or false depending if it finds the thing or not

well, I'm trying to search in a ListView control, not a listbox. And I want to search in different ways:

search for a word with and without case sensivity
partial search and exact search

I guess I'll do it manually :D
Umm I just dont know how to check for case sensivity?:confused:

I think the string.compare() function.

this will compair with case sensitivity.

intReturnVal = string.Compare(string1, string2, true)
if intReturnVal = 0 Then
MessageBox.Show("They match case sensitivity")
end if


or without case sensitivity:
intReturnVal = string.Compare(string1, string2, false)
if intReturnVal = 0 Then
MessageBox.Show("They match but may not be a match as far as case goes")
end if

never noticed their was a list view as well :o

it has the same function but it wont work for parts of the words, u could use an iterator from the collection and the string functions, i think the string function do case sensitivity
