Combo Box - selection, auto complete

[yogiwales]

I have a combo box that is bound to a list of products. I want the user to start typing in the product they want, and auto complete to narrow the search down. Is this possible with vb.net?

I am sure it is. You can probably handle the TextChanged event (if it has one) and do a search for the text they enter using the Text.StartsWith sub.

Go here:

and download the program - VBCodeBook.NET.

 

It has a bunch of code snippets and one of them tells you exactly how to do that.
