Thanks just needed the right terminology for searching. Found this code which works with a DropDown syle combo box. http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/autocomplete_combobox.asp Added: cboRaisedBy.DroppedDown = True to the the keydown event of my combo box and it works like a charm.

Hello I'm writing my first VB .NET app and have a combo box with style of DropDownLlist and for example values: Chris Craig Ralph If I type C in the dropdown list it goes to Chris, when I then press R it jumps to Ralph rather than going to Craig as it used to do in VB 6. Is this by design? Is there a way to get round this? Thanks
