I am trying to design a search system that uses  a string of characters to bring back a list of search results...

 

Example

user enters 123456 into the search bar 

 

on the back end the 123456 references an ID 

 

The ID references a list of associated results

 

 

How would I go about doing this?

Your question is too broad and needs more detail for any helpful response. For starters, what programming language are you using to create your code?

 

It sounds like you want to create a search function, is that right? What is it for? Searching for files like File Explorer offers? Looking for data within cells, like in Excel? Searching the Internet for websites?

    • Windows 11 is now five years old

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      Apart from a few very specific hiccups, Windows 11 has been good for me. Rock solid and stable. Unpopular opinion, I know, but it's mine.

      No. Windows 8 had little to no spywhare, is actually faster than 7 but it has the dreaded start screen, nothing that you could not fix with start8. Windows ME crashed often, but was shotlived and replaced by XP, which is a much better windows in itself.

      Windows 8 was uninspiring but it was fine / worked. It was just overshadowed by how great Windows 7 was. Windows ME seem to be just unstable for most people - I was using Windows 2000, which was far superior. The two best versions are Windows 7 and 2000

      I don't think ME was that bad. The stability issues were mostly caused by drivers. This was when the switch from vxd to wdm was happening. The other complaint was not being able to shut down into DOS anymore which was silly with XP right around the corner.

      As much as I hated Windows 8, although I never used it personally on any of my own machines, I think Windows Me was hands down the worst OS from MS. I have Windows 11 on 2 unsupported machines and haven't had any issues and I actually kind of like it. Still hate how slow Windows updates are though.
