[font=verdana, arial, helvetica]Hi!
I am trying to figure out how to code for an Autocomplete Textbox
in VB.NET!
All i want to do is :
1. When a user types in the textbox, a "select" statement starts to bring data in a dataview, where i keep all the information that i want, from a database.
2. While he types, and the "select" statement finds a record that begins with the characters typed, i want the textbox to be filled with this record and to select only the remaining characters that filled the textbox.
3. Also i want the pointer in the textbox to remain in the typing position and not at the end.
As you probably understood, i want to do exactly what Microsoft Excel does when you type similar words or phrases.
Please , urgent help!!!!
Thanx in advance!!!!!!!!!![/font]
