Hello.

I can search for items in first listview column using FindItemWithText. I wonder is it possible to search in other listview columns and highlight found text, not all item line ? :?: Searched on google all day long but no luck... :sad:

My Listview contains multiple items and each item has 9 subitems. I would like to search in column 4.

Thanks in advance for any help! :icon_wink:

My code i use to search in first column.

Dim findItem As ListViewItem = ListView1.FindItemWithText(TextBox1.Text, False, 0, True)


        If findItem IsNot Nothing Then
            ListView1.MultiSelect = False
            ListView1.TopItem = findItem

            findItem.Selected = True
        End If

Bump. ;)

Seems like you could do it with this

ListView1.Focus()

 For i = 0 To ListView1.Items.Count - 1
     If ListView1.Items(i).SubItems(3).Text = TextBox1.Text Then
          ListView1.Items(i).Selected = True
     End If
 Next

The code given is looping through the listview Items and seeing if the sub item at index 3 ( which is column 4,) has the text that was entered in the textbox.
