Howdy dudes.
Anyone seen code/component for doing predictive text in .NET like you can do on mobile phones?
Would seem like a good idea to have that capability in our apps? ;)
Cheers.

You mean entering words from the keypad? If so then you'll need to convert a wordlist into an encoded version based on the numerical entry from the user. You'll also need to take into account that telephone and keyboard numeric pads are not the same, the top row of a phone is 123, while on a keyboard its 789.
Lo Woss.
Actually no, sorry for the confusion. No numbers, just the keyboard. If you have ever used a PDA and used the on-screen keyboard, you start to tap the word you want, and it gives suggestions on what you might mean (like a phone).
Something like that :)
he means t9 mensage composing.
Yeah, T9 mensage composing. That's it!
Sorry m8, couldn't resist :D
t9 messaging is quite simple really. Its pretty much the same principle that gives you "type ahead" in combo boxes.
There are many threads and pages around here about type ahead so it may be worth your while to browse here and google. You'd still need to get yourself a comprehensive word list, happily there are MANY of these on google with whole sites dedicated to custom dictionaries.
