Hi, in my VB.NET app, I'm using a combobox.

I want to check if the item which is taped in the combobox is existing in the items collection of the combobox.

I seen the method contains called like :
VB.NET Code:
  1. Combobox1.items.contains("Name_Of_The_Item_Taped")

But I don't want to check the exact string, just the beginning, someting like that :
VB.NET Code:
  1. Combobox1.items.contains("Name_Of_The_Item_Taped" & "*")
OR
VB.NET Code:
  1. Combobox1.items.contains( Like "Name_Of_The_Item_Taped *")

As you see, I don't know how to write it , if you have any idea, I'm listening !

Thank you by advance !
