hi all,

this is a simple stuff but i am grinding my head to come up with a solution.

whenever i enter the Letter 'A' in the Search box, i need to get all the words that starts with A as a list box or something..

so that, i can select one of them, like we do in IE while entering the URL.

is it possible in Access...need your assistance..

thanks and regards,
Kathy

Try converting your Textbox to a Combobox with Autocomplete enabled
