There is no exact duplicate functionality. You can however use the Find method of a DataView to locate a record and return its index inside the table. The Find method uses the current sort index to locate the record. Then you can set the Position property of the CurrencyManager.

int nFound = 0;
nFound = oDataView.Find("StringToSearch");

The DataTable.Rows collection also has a Find method but you can only find the record based on a primary key that has been defined for the DataTable.
