I want to set a filter for my search routine. I have a dropdown list of search orders that the user may select. As it goes through the LostFocus of the dropdown list for the search orders, there is a text box where the user types in the string to search.

The search orders are by index, of course and they are:
1. Part Number
2. Project Name
3. Customer

I have some code in the Interactive part of the text box control that searches for every keystroke. However, I want to only show those records which have the same exact string through every keystroke.

So, if the user types in a part number such as, "ABCDEF" and there are 3 records which being with "ABCDEF", let's say, then I want those records to show in my grid on the form. I want it to change (when there are matches) as the user types in more keystrokes. If this were a simple SQL statement, it'd be an easy one time shot, but this is using a filter and searching for every keystroke the user enters. How do you do this? If the userr has typed in "ABCDEF" and 5 records appear in the grid, I don't want to see any other records that don't match at least the first five characters.

ABCDEF123
ABCDEF435
ABCDEF789
ABCFGH120 < - - This one would not show up if the user had already typed in "ABCDEF" in the search text box control.
