If you have a web form with 100 textboxes then you have a design issue.

Better put a grid or a plain text and work that way, 100 textboxes, well... it is not the way to go.

As Wes said, your design sucks. In general, I would use jquery though, because you can search all text boxes at once that way. I am pretty sure you can search on the basis of content, and then you could change the style of the controls that match to show they were a hit.
