    Datagridview - Search and filter particular column(s) only

    Apologies if this has been answered in a similar post, I did check but could not find a solution to my specific problem.

    I have a form, button, datagridview, textbox.

    DataGridview has 5 columns already added to it, but no data. The data is being pulled from a .CSV and then populating the datagridview.
    • Actor Name
    • Movie Name
    • Year Released
    • Movie Rating
    • Review Score



    I'm currently pulling the data by using the command button (code) as below.
    Code:
    Private Sub Button4_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button4.Click
            DataGridView1.Rows.Clear()
    
            Dim TextFieldParser1 As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser("C:\Data\VB.net\Actors.csv")
            TextFieldParser1.Delimiters = New String() {","}
    
            While Not TextFieldParser1.EndOfData
                Dim Row1 As String() = TextFieldParser1.ReadFields()
                DataGridView1.Rows.Add(Row1)
            End While
    End Sub

    I want to search within a particular column and only show the data relevant. For example I want to find all the movies released in 2020, the datagrid shows me that. I don't want to search all the columns matching 2020, I only want to focus on the column "Year Released" and retrieve that information. Eventually I'm going to have a range of multiple actors names as well as movie release dates to search and retrieve data. I want to start nice and easy so that I can understand this further.

    Can anyone assist or advise ?

    Many thanks!
