thanks alot but what do you suggest to create autocomplete words for my combobox

Hi,

Really good question. i don't know if this solution fit in your problem.

you can create one custom control as more number of record need more detail search criteria. so create your own custom control and through that you can achieve it.

let me know if you need idea about how you will create customized control.

Thanks

I don't understand very well but if you can show me how to create your own custom control
really appreciated

You do not need to add 40000 words to a combo box. What you need to do is achieving auto-complete.

(And as some have responded, adding 40k words to a combo box is a really bad idea)

Look at the way Google does auto complete. It does not load all the possible combinations even before we type anything. But after typing a letter it shows FEW most likely phrases. And after typing another letter, it clears out the current list and populates the suggestions with new set of phrases. That's the functionality you want to achieve.

Try hooking into the control's keypress event, and fetch few most likely suggestions.

yes your right and good idea but can you help me how to do that please
