comboBox: Type: System.Windows.Forms ComboBox
The combo box.

regExp: Type: System String
A regular expression to match.

Return Value

The combo box item matching the given regular expression, or null if not found.

Unlike the Online

FindString(String) method, FindComboBoxItem can locate a substring starting anywhere in the Item text, not just at the start of the Item text. Also, by using regular expressions, you have more resolution over what to find.
