I am trying to write a textbox that will search on 5 DB columns and will return every result of a given search, ex. "Red" would return: red ball, Red Williams, etc. Any examples or similar things people have tried. My example code for the search.
Thanks.
ItemMasterDataContext db = new ItemMasterDataContext();
string s = txtSearch.Text.Trim();
var q = from p in db.ITMSTs
where p.IMITD1.Contains(s) ||
p.IMITD2.Contains(s) ||
p.IMMFNO.Contains(s) ||
p.IMITNO.Contains(s) ||
p.IMVNNO.Contains(s)
select p;
lv.DataSource = q;
lv.DataBind();
