Search in database is just a simple SQL query with
LIKE
clause to find a relative record. Although it just needs a simple input control (input element), and a page where you will handle the user input, the query and then generate results as per the query and database records.
For example, this article of mine,
How to search for related query inside the Database using ASP.NET[
^], covers the topic that you are finding. It simply uses a single input element, and upon submission it looks for records in the database that
might have the query in it.
A sample would be,
SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE column_name LIKE %parameter%
Always use parameters to prevent SQL Injections, above code would look for records that match (I have used %% that would search for any word, starting with, ending with or containing the keyword) your keyword, parameterized keyword. You can execute it in many ways, using ASP.NET Web Helpers'
Database
object or you can use
SqlClient
to connect to database.
