Set the ShowSearchBox property to true to display the Search Box in the DevExpress Blazor Grid. Users can enter search strings/text within the Search Box to filter and highlight data. The Grid control attempts to locate search text in every visible data column. You can use the SearchEnabled property to exclude a specific column from search operations.

Use the SearchText property to specify search text in code. Handle the SearchTextChanged event to respond to search text changes. If search text contains multiple words separated by space characters, words can be treated as a single condition or individual conditions. Set the SearchTextParseMode property to one of the following values to specify how the Grid control treats search words.

• GroupWordsByAnd — Search words are treated as individual conditions grouped by the AND logical operator. Only records that match all conditions are displayed.
• GroupWordsByOr — Search words are treated as individual conditions grouped by the OR logical operator. Records that match at least one of these conditions are displayed.
• ExactMatch — Search words are not treated separately. Only records that match search text exactly are displayed.

You can press Ctrl+F to move focus from a Grid element to the Search Box.
