I have a listview where i there has been loaded movies like RED but i want the user to be able to just search red and it will find it instead of having to search RED with upper case

what about this?

Code: Select all

    Private Sub searchBox_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles searchBox.KeyPress
        If Asc(e.KeyChar) = 13 Then

Dim itm As ListViewItem
Dim i As Integer

For i = 0 To lvUser.Items.Count - 1
lvUser.Items(i).Selected = False
lvUser.Items(i).BackColor = Color.White
Next

With lvUser
itm = .FindItemWithText(searchBox.Text, False, 0, True)


If Not itm Is Nothing Then

'.TopItem = itm
.Items.Item(itm.Index).BackColor = Color.BurlyWood
.Items.Item(itm.Index).EnsureVisible()
Else
MsgBox("No Record Found!")
For i = 0 To lvUser.Items.Count - 1
lvUser.Items(i).Selected = False
lvUser.Items(i).BackColor = Color.White
Next
.Items(0).EnsureVisible()
.Items.Item(0).BackColor = Color.BurlyWood

searchBox.SelectionStart = 0
searchBox.SelectionLength = Len(searchBox.Text)
searchBox.Focus()
End If
End With
itm = Nothing
End If
End Sub

How would i use this dunnno;

just copy this code
just add a searchbox --> textbox
type something and press return key

replace lvUser with your listview
