Hi,

I am developing a small program which involves a combo box control. Whenever the user types values into the combo box, i want the list to scroll automatically to the first value that matches that value.
Ex:
List values -> Red, Reddish, green, gray...

so as soon as user types "gr", gray shd be selected. but when he types "gre", "green" should be selected automatically.

(This combo box items are listed alphabetically. i am doing this in Vb-in-Excel)

Pls help.
