Need help with 'Find' coding

I am trying to implement a Find button in my form.
There are 2 text boxes : one for part code and the other for part seq number and 2 Find buttons, one for each of the above.

Here is my code:

Code:

---

Public Class MRP_Planning

    Private Sub Part_Planning_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Me.PartsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.PartDataSet.Parts)
    End Sub

    Private Sub btnFindSeqNo_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnFindSeqNo.Click
        Dim indexNumber As Integer = Me.PartsBindingSource.Find("SequenceNumber", Me.FindBySequenceNo.Text)
        Me.PartsBindingSource.Position = indexNumber
     
    End Sub

    Private Sub btnFindPartCode_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnFindPartCode.Click
        Dim indexNumber As Integer = Me.PartsBindingSource.Find("PartCode", Me.FindByPartCode.Text)
        Me.PartsBindingSource.Position = indexNumber
    End Sub
End Class

---

Is it possible for me to set the code where there is only 1 button and 1 textbox that the code will read the input values of part code and seq number?

And then how will the app know whether to search for a part number or sequence number?

Sorry my mistakes. It's 1 button and 2 textboxes. Will that still be possible?

So you want to search for both at the same time, or just one TextBox will be populated at a time?

If possible, I like it to search both at the same time...

That's a bit tricky. The BindingSource only supports searching by one column at a time. You could search the underlying DataTable:

vb.net Code:

Dim rows As DataRow() = myDataTable.Select(String.Format("SequenceNumber = '{0}' AND PartCode = '{0}'", _
                                                         Me.FindBySequenceNo.Text, _
                                                         Me.FindByPartCode.Text), _
                                           myBindingSource.Filter)
 
If rows.Length > 0 Then
    For index As Integer = 0 To myBindingSource.Count - 1
        If DirectCast(myBindingSource(index), DataRowView).Row = rows(0) Then
            myBindingSource.Position = index
            Exit For
        End If
    Next
End If

I gotten 2 errors while inputting the above code.
1. Name 'myDataTable' is not declared
2. Operator '=' is not defined for types 'System.Data.DataRow' and 'System.Data.DataRow'

How do I rid of the errors?

1. Say it to yourself: "myDataTable". What do you suppose that refers to? That code is an EXAMPLE. You have to adapt it to YOUR project, so you have to use YOUR DataTable. Don't just copy and paste blindly. Look, read and think about what the code is actually doing.

2. That one's my fault. It should be 'Is' instead of '='.

datatable as in? Is it the data source that I bind it to?

This:

Code:

---

Me.PartsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.PartDataSet.Parts)

---

is YOUR DataTable.
