I have noticed that Autocomplete stops working when you set a TextBox to
Multiline. Is this the designed behavior? Is there any way to make it work, other than developing your own custom control? I would also like to see a behavior where the list of suggested items resets after each space, so in other words you could use Autocomplete multiple times in the same TextBox. Do I have to start developing my own control for this? -- Paul Fountain, Software Engineer InsureMe |

Yes, this is by design. However, you could subclass the TextBox and
override the design. Take a look at the TextBox class in the Reflector utility from http://www.aisto.com/roeder/ -- Bryan Phillips MCSD, MCDBA, MCSE Blog: http://bphillips76.spaces.live.com "Paul Fountain" <PaulFountain@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:6E218A1D-1EF0-4B83-8297-FEEC7A700DA2@microsoft.com: > I have noticed that Autocomplete stops working when you set a TextBox to > Multiline.
