Enter some data into field

  • Follow


I would like to allow the user to type in the first letter or two into a 
field and have the closiest data display. 
Example: If they are typing the name Jonathon, when they put in Jo the rest 
of the closiest match appears (john), as they type the rest, it keeps showing 
the cloiest match (jonathon).
Is there a property value I can set to allow this to happen.  

Thanks

This is normal behavior if you use a Combo Box on your form (not a
text control) with it's AutoExpand property set to Yes, and the Combo
Box's Rowsource property is set to a table that contains the list of
name values you will be selecting from.
