public string Search( int sheetIndex, string searchString, bool caseSensitive, bool exactMatch, bool alternateSearch, bool useWildcards, int startRowIndex, int startColumnIndex, ref int foundRowIndex, ref int foundColumnIndex ) | |
Parameters
- sheetIndex
- Index of sheet on which to search
- searchString
- String for which to search
- caseSensitive
- Whether the search considers the case of the letters in the search string
- exactMatch
- Whether the search considers only an exact match
- alternateSearch
- Whether the search goes by alternate coordinates of column, row (instead of row, column)
- useWildcards
- Whether the search considers wildcard characters (*, ?) in the search string
- startRowIndex
- Index of row at which to start
- startColumnIndex
- Index of column at which to start
- foundRowIndex
- Index of row at which match is found
- foundColumnIndex
- Index of column at which match is found
Return Value
The entire string in which the specified string is found is returned.
Also, the foundRowIndex and foundColumnIndex parameters return the row index and column index of the cell in which the string is found.
Example
