Hi all,

I had implemented single word search, now I need to work with multiple key-word search..
I need to search files in server...

Code for searching files using single word key is as follows:

C#
string s = "", s1 = ""; //to get the file name
// string files = "";
string filename = "*" + tb_search.Text + "*";
DirectoryInfo MyDir;
ArrayList CellarList = new ArrayList();
MyDir = new DirectoryInfo(Server.MapPath("files/"));
string path = (Server.MapPath("files/"));
//FileInfo[] MyFiles = MyDir.GetFiles("*.*");
string[] fileList = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(path, filename);

foreach (string file in fileList)
{
    if (file.ToLower().Contains(tb_search.Text.ToLower().ToString()))
    {
        s = file.ToString();
        s1 = s.Replace(path, "");
        lb_search.Items.Add(s1);
    }
                }



Can any one help me...
Thanks in advance
