  You would need to use a regex search() for that, something like search('^arn', true, false) - see examples here.

  This thread shows you how to reuse the existing search box for your own purposes.

  Thanks a lot for this response. I've try it but each request hide all lines, so I've disable option "searching" in dataTable and script my personnal code:

  $(".globalSearch").on( 'keyup', function () {
              var rec = $(this).val();
              $.each($("#example tbody tr"), function()
              {
                  var ch0=$(this).children()[0];
                  var ch1=$(this).children()[1];
  
                  var colCode = $(ch0).html();
                  var colUsuel = $(ch1).html();
  
                  // si on trouve le mot recherché au début
                  if (colCode.substr(0, rec.length) == rec || colUsuel.substr(0, rec.length) == rec)
                  {
                      $(this).show();
                  }else
                  {
                      $(this).hide();
                  }
              });
          } );
  

  Now It's OK
  Have a nice day
