BaseListBox.FindItem Method (Typed)

 VIRTUAL METHOD FindItem(
	cItem AS STRING,
	 lWholeItem AS LOGIC,
	 nStart AS LONG
) AS LONG

public virtual int FindItem(
	string cItem,
	[DefaultParameterValueAttribute(true, 0)] bool lWholeItem,
	[DefaultParameterValueAttribute(0, 0)] int nStart
)

Parameters

cItem

Type: String
The text to search for.

lWholeItem

Type: Logic
Indicates how the search is to be performed. TRUE matches an exact cItem string to a 'whole' list box item (for example, a 'can' string does not match 'scan'). FALSE finds a match for any list box prefixed by cItem (for example, the string 'cat' would match 'catalog' in the list box). The default is TRUE.

nStart

Type: Long
Specifies the one-based index of the item before the first item to be searched. When the search reaches the bottom of the list box, it continues searching from the top of the list box back to the item specified by the nStart parameter. If nStart is 0, the entire list box is searched from the beginning.
