I would like to make a program that searches a file for lines containing the word you write. Preferably live, while writing. For example a file with: STO - Stockholm (Sweden SE) Stockholm - STO (Sweden SE) ARN - Arlanda (stockholm, STO, Sweden SE) Arlanda - ARN (stockholm, STO, Sweden SE) UME - Umea (Sweden SE) Umea - UME (Sweden SE) And if you write: Ar it would show the lines: Arlanda - ARN (stockholm, STO, Sweden SE) ARN - Arlanda (stockholm, STO, Sweden SE) Any tips? As it is now, I have a combo box (with the lines) and an edit box (that you write in). It's live but it only shows one line, and you have to be completely accurate, and the word has to be in the beginning of the line. Current projects: "Vollo Arena" God bless you

It searches for matches anywhere in the line, and the query can be uppercase, lowercase or a combination. n/a
