How to search Records by keywords in DataGridView using Windows C#.Net

To implement this concept you need to follow the below steps :

Step1 :
First you need to design a table in MS Access 2007 Database to retrieve the records from database.

Step2:
On the File menu, click New Project. Select Windows Forms Application as your project type.
Design the Form using controls from Toolbox.

Step3:
Now open the Form.cs page and write the following source code.

Form.cs Code :

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using System.Data.OleDb;

namespace Visiting_Card

{

    public partial class Form2 : Form

    {

        OleDbConnection con = new OleDbConnection(@"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=E:\VisitingCard.accdb");

        public Form2()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

        }

        private void btnSearch_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            con.Open();

            OleDbCommand cmd1 = new OleDbCommand("VisitingCard_Search", con);

            cmd1.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

            cmd1.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Names", txtKeyword.Text);

            OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter(cmd1);

            DataTable dt = new DataTable();

            da.Fill(dt);

            dataGridView1.DataSource = dt;

            con.Close();

        }

    }

}
