Autocomplete for a Combo box
This is more of a helpful item to put into my program but it would be very handy to have it. Is there a control that has this property that i'm missing or does it have to be coded for it to work. I found a Active X autocomplete component but you had to buy it and i found code as well. i'm not sure which is the best way to go.
Any suggestions? |

use the keypress event - on every keypress, detect the combination of characters and build a recordset filter and reload the list?

or, are you wanting to make it such that the when the user types in a letter, the list will automatically scroll to the list items that match?
