Hey Coders,

I got a question on how to make this:
How can I make a program with a textbox in which you enter the name of a file and it searches for it on your hdddisk. So if i type "notepad" (without the "" ofc) it will search for the good old fashioned notepad. The results should be displayed in a listview.

Ill award the one who helped me out with a +rep & 10 credits. Thank you!

You know where it has that MsgBox thing? You can change

Code: Select all

Invoke(Sub() MsgBox("Match at '" + f + "'."))

in Form1.vb to

Code: Select all

Invoke(Sub() ListBox1.Items.Add(f))
