Don,
Combos already have incremental search functionality built into it. Set the IncrementalSearch property to .T. to turn it on. The issue with this is that users must type relatively quickly to get the search to work. The time between keystrokes can be set using the _DBLCLICK variable (prior to VFP 7) or _INCSEEK (VFP 7 and beyond).

See VFP Help for _INCSEEK for more information.

HTH.
