Please, I need a search textbox for this code
Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()   
Dim x As Long, FileNum As Long, TotalFile As String, Lines As Variant
FileNum = FreeFile
Open "C:\Temp\History.txt" For Binary As [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FileNum]#FileNum[/URL] 
TotalFile = Space(LOF(FileNum))
Get [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FileNum]#FileNum[/URL] , , TotalFile
Close [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FileNum]#FileNum[/URL] 
Lines = Split(TotalFile, vbCrLf)
With rList
For x = UBound(Lines) To 0 Step -1
    .AddItem Replace(Lines(x), "|", vbNullChar, , 1)
    .List(.ListCount - 1, 1) = Mid(Lines(x), InStr(1, Lines(x), "|") + 1)
Next
End With
rList.ColumnWidths = "0;200"


End Sub
The listbox ColumnCount = -1
 
My code on the button and in the change event is the same, if it works on the button, it certainly works in the event. Check the data, it worked well in my tests.
You should try any provided code, for the benefit of the doubt.

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.

I'm sorry, it worked. I don't understand why it did not work initially. Thanks.

Now I understand what happened earlier. It was because, it is case sensitive . I don't think you can do anything to it without converting the ListBox Items to lowercase, do you?

Use this:

Code:
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
    Dim x As Long, FileNum As Long, TotalFile As String, Lines As Variant
    FileNum = FreeFile
    Open "C:\Temp\History.txt" For Binary As [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FileNum]#FileNum[/URL]  
    TotalFile = Space(LOF(FileNum))
    Get [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FileNum]#FileNum[/URL]  , , TotalFile
    Close [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FileNum]#FileNum[/URL]  
    Lines = Split(TotalFile, vbCrLf)
    With rList
        .Clear
        For x = UBound(Lines) To 0 Step -1
            If [COLOR=#0000ff]ucase[/COLOR](Lines(x)) Like "*" & [COLOR=#0000ff]ucase[/COLOR](TextBox1.Value) & "*" Then
                .AddItem Replace(Lines(x), "|", vbNullChar, , 1)
                .List(.ListCount - 1, 1) = Mid(Lines(x), InStr(1, Lines(x), "|") + 1)
            End If
        Next
    End With
End Sub

            End If
        Next
