Search a string within a string

Question

Hi,

 

I have a search box and want to search a string from a  string.i.e,

Suppose, str[]= abf,fghi,acb,stabu

and if I search for "ab",then it should display "abf" and "stabu"

 

My Code:-

 

List<string> selectedValues = new List<string>(); 

foreach (string str in completeList)

{

   if(str.Contains(filterWith))   //filterWith is the sequence of characters to be searched

   selectedValues.Add(str);

}
