Question

Kindly provide me with the codes for a search feature within a gridview.

Say a gridview which has 5 fields i.e

the fields are 1. staff_no
2. first_name
3. last_name
4. social security no
5. home town

The gridview should do an incremental search by any of the above fields while taking out the unwanted record as you keep entering in the search text box.

Thereafter the user will select the requisite record from the gridview which will in tend fill the text boxes in the form.

Thanks
