Search file from folder and show the matched records in Gridview using C# and VB.Net in ASP.Net

Hello,

I have followed your post here:

https://www.aspsnippets.com/Articles/Search-records-in-GridView-and-highlight-results-in-ASPNet-using-C-and-VBNet.aspx

However, I want to show in the Gridview only the matched records instead of highlight them since I have so many records. Could you please help me to do this task?

Thank you very much.

Here is the code:

protected void OnRowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
         e.Row.Cells[0].Text = Regex.Replace(e.Row.Cells[0].Text, txtSearch.Text.Trim(), delegate (Match match)
         {
            return string.Format("<span style = 'background-color:#D9EDF7'>{0}</span>", match.Value);
         }, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
     }
}
