Parameters

hwndCtl

The window handle of the tree control.

index

The zero-based index of the item where the search for the specified string is to begin.

realCol

The zero-based column number to be searched.

lpszText

The string to be searched.

string

The string to be searched.

Returns

The return value is the zero-based index of the item where the string was found. -1 is returned if the string was not found or an error occurred.

Comments

The FindString function searches a string.

The column text searched is based on the column specified using realCol or last defined using SetAccessColumn. Functions, which do not allow the realCol parameter, access the column last defined by SetAccessColumn or the last column referenced by a column specific function. The last column accessed can be retrieved using GetAccessColumn.

The string lpszString is compared to the value returned by GetText for each item starting at index. The search starts at the item described by index and is restricted to the column specified by realCol. If an item with matching text is found, its zero-based index is returned, otherwise -1 is returned.

Only one column can be searched at a time. The comparison of lpszString and the cell text is not case sensitive. If the cell text starts with the string in lpszString, it is considered a match. To find an exact match for lpszString use FindStringExact.

The FindStringEx function can also be used and allows additional search options.
