Title:
Incremental search in combo boxes
Hi,
I'm trying to use incremental search in a combo box which contains a large number of items (all the cities in a province, which can be over a thousand in some cases.) I'd like the user to be able to start typing a city name and the text part of the combo box to show up with the first city name that matches what has been typed so far - this is incremental search, right? The incremental search property is set to .T.
The help mentions modifying the value of _DBLCLICK, I've tried different values without any result.
The data comes from a remote view. The actual list works fine, all names appear in there.
Am I missing something here? Due to the nature of the data, incremental search is absolutely necessary in this case (and a few other combo boxes on the same form :-))
thanks,
Michel
