so basically, (pretty simple) I have this listbox, filled with items like
(eg.)
Billy Bob
Jerry
Jo-Shmo
Okay, how can I 'search' and listbox item containing 'Bob', like I click a button on a form with the listbox presented, and then it auto-selects the one that contains bob? HOW COULD I DO THAT?

I've got the following txt file:
[code]...
Now I want that presented in the listbox with the semicolon and it should be aligned per column so that the numbers, the names, the prices and the quantity are exactly aligned per column.If I read the file like this:
[code]...
Then the semicolon is not presented in the listbox and I don't have any alignment per column. As the names of the woods are not equally long the prices and the quantity are not aligned directly below each other...
My questions are:
1) How to add the semicolon in the listbox as seperator of the columns
2) How to align the 4 columns in the listbox (as I have an array Item(3) )
Later on I need to be able to change the quantity (last column) from 0 to > 0 (that's why I have to use an array)

I'd like to modify that to be able to put part of the name and it find it. example: Search for Banana Apple pie what it finds is 1743 = Banana Apple Pie Also I'd like when clicked the item from the listbox is displayed in a text box. If I use textbox.text = moblist.items(i) it only shows it when I search and not when I click. I've tried textbox.text = moblist.selecteditem but it does nothing?
I am unable to do that and am getting anomalies when I use the SelectedIndexChanged event twice. It's all repeating.
