That is exactly what the Visual Extend framework does. By intercepting the KeyPress() event, data is sent to a special incremental search method.

First, an index must be set. Visual Extend will search if there is an index on the search expression (a field, in the simplest case). If there isn't, it will create a temporary index (IDX).

>or maybe another solution ?

Another feature which this same framework offers is a user-defined filter.

Both features, of course, are defined in the base classes. All forms must be derived from these classes.
