Shachar,

The listview in detail mode with one column comes in my opinion very near to
what you ask.

Take a look at the listbox's 'FindString' and 'FindStringExac t' methods.

For multiselect?

AFAIK does that find the first.

Shachar,

I am always strugling finding that multiselect settig of a listbox, I knew
it again, this can be the code with a listbox.

\\\
ListBox1.Select ionMode = SelectionMode.M ultiExtended

For i As Integer = 0 To ListBox1.Items. Count - 1
ListBox1.SetSel ected(i, False)
If ListBox1.Items( i).ToString.Ind exOf("a") <> -1 Then
'"a" is any searchitem
ListBox1.SetSel ected(i, True)
End If
Next
///

I hope this helps?

ACK, but you can specify the index where the search should start. You can
use the index of the last element that was found using 'FindString' + 1 as
start index for the next call to 'FindString'.
