Jamie,

Ths listbox has an IncrementalSearch property is it set to .T.? If you do the seek yourself you need SET NEAR ON and SET EXACT OFF.

>I'm having a problem figuring out how incremental searches work. I have a form with a text box to key in a last name. The form also has a list box with the rowsource type being fields from a table called CLIENTS and the rowsource being clients.lastname, firstname.
>
>As the user keys in the name, I would like the list box to incrementally reflect the entered text.
>
>I have the following code under interactivechange of the textbox:
>
> xname = thisform.txtlastname.value
> seek upper(xname)
> thisform.list1.value = xname
> thisform.refresh

>The list will "jump" to the correct item once an entire match is made but not "incrementally". In other words, you have to type Flick before the item with whose last name is Flick is selected. Make any sense?
