"Auto Find" listbox

[Bill nguyen]

How can I get a listbox to display the most closely matched items when user
types in the first few letters/digits of displaymember value?

Thanks a million

NET 2.0 now has it for comboboxes

BTW, how would this apply to a listbox?

Take a look at the control's 'FindString' method and its 'SelectedIndex'
property.
