Remarks
The obj parameter is a object to compare against the object associated with the items in the combo box list. The search performs a partial match starting from the beginning of the object, returning the first item in the column located by findTargetColumnIndex of the combo box list that matches the object. You can then perform tasks, such as removing the item that contains the search object using the ListItemCollection.Remove method or changing the object. This method is typically used after a call has been made using the version of this method that does not specify a starting index. Once an initial item has been found in the list, this method is typically used to find further instances of the search object by specifying the index position in the startIndex parameter of the item after the first found instance of the search object. If you want to perform a search for an exact word match instead of a partial match, use the FindStringExact(String,Int32,Int32) method.
