Solution 2

Here is a windows version in codeproject: AutoComplete TextBox[^]

It did not work for me, but there are recent positive comments. There is also a solution that uses a listbox with a textbox that is a lot simpler. I would just hide the listbox when not on the control: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/csharpgeneral/thread/a8e31841-1ba9-4990-b0e3-bdee489555af[^]
