Quick Search TextBox

Original Post: Phil 15/06/2012 15:39:25

" Hi all is it possible though code to get and set the text of the quick search text box, on a search list.
If so what is the property and is it on the SearchList Class or the ucSearchControl Class?
Many thanks Phil "

" Hi Phil,
Did you ever work out how to do this? I'm trying the exact same thing now, but none of the obvious properties seem to work.
EDIT: Well I managed to work this out... in my circumstance, it is all based on when the control is ready. You need to wait for the SearchCompleted event to fire, then
you can set the search list's QuickFilterControl property:

ucSearchControl searchList =
EnquiryForm.GetControl(“searchControlName”) asucSearchControl;
searchList.SearchCompleted += delegate(object innerSender,
SearchCompletedEventArgs innerE)
{
searchList.QuickFilterContol.Text = “Filter Text”;
};

I hope this helps you and possibly other members of the forum
Dwayne."

" Cool nice work .I did have some success with
SearchControl.ExternalFilter = ““
and
SearchControl.SearchList.Filter for the dataset
But I was taken off that project to work on something more pressing so stop searching for an answer.
So cheers for this.
Phil"
