The SearchExpression filter option uses the SearchType enumeration when it performs a string comparison. You set the SearchType property to one of the SearchType enumeration values.
The following example shows how to use markup to set the SearchExpression filter option to the StartsWith value of the SearchType enumeration.
<asp:SearchExpression SearchType="StartsWith" DataFields="Name" >
