Search An Entire Column For One Or Two Keywords?

Aug 4, 2011

I am in the process of creating a program, using Visual Basic Express, for a physics professor who has recently had to rename all 1500 questions for his course. I created a database that has the old names, new names, and the entire contents of each question. The program seemed an easy enough idea, but has proved to be very difficult for me. I am new to programming (this is only my third go at it) and have searched for an answer to my problem for at least 20 hours, and have yet to find anything that will work for what I need.

What I would like is to have a text box in which he can type in a keyword (such as "Sun", "ISS", "Force", etc) and for the program to search throughout the entire "questioncontents" column and pull out any questions that contain those words into the datagrid. As of yet the closest I have gotten is for it to search the first word of the column, which is not very useful since most of them start with "The". I had also thought of creating several keyword columns and then just having it search through those, but I couldn't figure out how to apply the filter to multiple columns.

Search Txt File For Keywords?

Nov 22, 2009

How would I make a program that would search through a .txt file, and find certain predetermined keywords. Basically, I have a very simple keylogger on my son's laptop to keep an eye on him. My hope is that I would make a program that would go through the .txt file, and if one of the keywords is found, then I would have the program execute a little something I have cooked up to warn to stop. The only problem is, I do not know how to search through the .txt file.

Hi, I need to program a simple Web Browser that can search for keywords and store relevant data in another file.I am facing a problem with authentication, mainly cookies and maintaining a session.So I read that Web Browser Control is based on I.E.?

C# - Using LINQ To SQL To Search Entire Database?

Is it possible with LINQ to SQL to search the entire database (obviously only the parts that are mapped in the .dbml file) for a string match?

ListView BackColor Fill Entire Column?

Dec 21, 2009

In the screenshot, you can see where the BackColor is set for each item added to the ListView on the right. How can I fill the white space between the columns as well? I'm assuming the column width is the highlighted portion plus the white space. I thought setting the BackColor would fill this whole portion so that there essentially would be no white space at all showing anywhere in the listview (except maybe at the bottom). Is there a Property I need to set to do this? the listview has 1 column and it's autoresize property is set to CellContent.
