What THY was getting at is right, to me. A postback after each keystroke is
too much. If you send all the data to the client, in a hidden div, you can
then use JavaScript to do the filtering on the client.

The control looks like this:
TEXTBOX:
|____user entry____|
LISTBOX:
|-- match 1--|
|-- match 2--|
|-- match 3--|
and the listbox should change as the user input changes; exactly like
Intellisense works.
I am using AUTOPOSTBACK=TRUE for the Textbox and at the
TextBox1_TextChanged() function I refresh the Listbox.
The problem is that TextBox1_TextChanged() is called ONLY after the RETURN
or TAB key is pressed, not after every key press that is what I need.
Attached goes a simple program that shows this behavior. unzip it at
c:\inetpub\wwwroot and will create a folder named intellisensedemo with
all the stuff.
thanks again,
ant.

news:%2****************@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... that should be done by javascript or any client side scripting ...
or else you gotta set the autopostback = true ...
but this is not a good idea I think ...
