<p>how can I compare value property of item to datatable column called Value?  Please help me with the syntax</p>

<pre><code>if ((String)item.Value.IndexOf((string)results("value") Stringcomparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase) &gt; -1)
                        {
                            returnItems.Add(item);
                        }
</code></pre>
