Searches items for a string using an exact match.
Syntax
| VB.NET | FoundIndex = object.FindCellTextExact(ByVal ItemIndex As Integer, ByVal ColIndex As Short, ByVal SearchString As String) As Integer |
| VB | FoundIndex = object.FindCellTextExact(ByVal ItemIndex As Long, ByVal ColIndex As Integer, ByVal SearchString As String) As Long |
| C#.NET | int FoundIndex = object.FindCellTextExact(int ItemIndex, short ColIndex, string SearchString); |
| VC++ | long FoundIndex = object->FindCellTextExact(long ItemIndex, short ColIndex, _bstr_t SearchString); |
| C | HRESULT object->raw_FindCellTextExact(long ItemIndex, short ColIndex, BSTR SearchString, long* FoundIndex); |
object
A SftTreeItems object.
ItemIndex
The zero-based index of the item where the search begins (including ItemIndex).
ColIndex
The zero-based column number to be searched.
SearchString
The text to be searched.
FoundIndex
Returns the zero-based index of the item, where the specified SearchString is found. -1 is returned if no item is found matching the specified SearchString.
Comments
The FindCellTextExact method searches items for a string using an exact match.
The string described by SearchString is compared to the Cell.Text property of all items and columns involved in the search. The search starts at the item described by ItemIndex and is restricted to the column specified by ColIndex. If an item with a matching Cell.Text property is found, its zero-based index is returned, otherwise -1 is returned.
Only one column can be searched at a time. Items.FindCell can be used to search multiple columns and with additional features not available to FindCellTextExact.
The comparison of SearchString and the Cell.Text property is not case sensitive. The Cell.Text property and the SearchString must match in their entirety, partial strings do not match. To find a partial match for SearchString use the Items.FindCellText method.
| SearchString | Cell.Text Property | Match | Comment |
|---|
| ABC | abc | Yes | Same string, case is ignored |
| abc | abc123 | No | Not the same string |
| abc | Thisabc | No | Not the same string |
| abc | ab | No | Not the same string |
