i'm trying to do a simple intellisense where you type a word and the listbox pops ups with possible matches, like vb6 does. My only issue is when it gives focus back it flickers, and is really annoying. Google the only examples i've found have the listbox on the forum in question and just move and show that, that works fine if the forms large enough to hold it, mines not so I need a popup solution. Any ideas?
