The example code I gave you highlights the row if your search string is found in a particular row.

If what you intend to achieve is that only the search string will be highlighted (for example, your search string is FOX and there is a row in the listbox with FOXPRO, only FOX will be highlighted?),
I don't think you can do that in a listbox.
