Re: Combobox List using like statement
It's not possible with the standard ComboBox control. You'd have to find a third-party auto-complete combo box control on the web and then customise it to behave that way. It shouldn't be too hard to find a freebie. I'd start looking at The Code Project.

jmcilhinney, thanks for your responce.. anyway i don't know what kind of third party is it... can you give me the name of the software?
Re: Combobox List using like statement
There are two parties involved in your development. You are the first party and Microsoft, who provide the IDE, is the second party. A third-party tool is anything that you haven't created yourself and Microsoft hasn't provided with the IDE.
I have no specific third party in mind. You may have heard of the World Wide Web. It lets you search for things. You might find it useful in this case.
