set VB.NET ListBox.selected index as you type into it

Asked by mah8473 in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net

Tags: listbox

Using VB.NET 2.0, how do you select a listbox item as you type into it? This was default behaviour in VB6.0 but I can't seem to make it work in VB.Net. I have found some samples that allow you to set the listbox selectedindex as you type into a textbox but I want to allow the user to type into a listbox and select the relevant item (or nearest match) as they type.

Is this possible?

I first thought it may have something to do with the IMEMode property but can't seem to make it workStart Free Trial
