The Condition property accepts the following values (run the “Find Panel” Demo Center module to test these modes).
FilterCondition.Default - inherits the global WindowsFormsSettings.FindPanelCondition property value.
FilterCondition.Contains - searches for all cells that contain the specified text, regardless of their position within the cell text.

FilterCondition.StartsWith - searches for cells whose text starts with the searched string.

FilterCondition.Equals - searches for cells whose text is an exact match with the searched string.
FilterCondition.Like - allows users to enter the “%” character that is a wildcard for any number of characters.
