    textbox

    Hi All:
    When my user tries to add a new record in the table, is there a way that would give the user a dropdown list of already existing records that matches the user input as each letter is typed? For example lets use the internet. When typing the address in the url address box, the address pulls a list of previously visited address and the selection can be made from the drop down list without the user having to type in the whole address. This is what I want to accomplish in my desk top application.

    Thanks
    Zus

    You can do an auto type ahead from a combo box control.
