CListBox::FindStringExact

int FindStringExact( int nIndexStart, LPCTSTR lpszFind ) const;

Return Value

The index of the matching item, or LB_ERR if the search was unsuccessful.

Parameters

nIndexStart

Specifies the zero-based index of the item before the first item to be searched. When the search reaches the bottom of the list box, it continues from the top of the list box back to the item specified by nIndexStart. If nIndexStart is –1, the entire list box is searched from the beginning.

lpszFind

Points to the null-terminated string to search for. This string can contain a complete filename, including the extension. The search is not case sensitive, so the string can contain any combination of uppercase and lowercase letters.

Remarks

An application calls the FindStringExact member function to find the first list-box string that matches the string specified in lpszFind. If the list box was created with an owner-draw style but without the LBS_HASSTRINGS style, the FindStringExact member function attempts to match the doubleword value against the value of lpszFind.
