Auto fills the combo box as you type in, from the drop down list of the combo box
VBcoders
'Private Sub cboEvaluators_Change()
' Call Proc_ComboAutoFill(cboEvaluators)
'End Sub
' where cboEvaluators is the combo box filled with a list of items
Public Sub Proc_ComboAutoFill(cboCtl As Control)
Dim i As Integer
Dim szEntry As String
If cboCtl.SelStart = 0 Then
szEntry = cboCtl.Text
Else
szEntry = left$(cboCtl.Text, cboCtl.SelStart)
End If
If IsNull(szEntry) Then Exit Sub
If cboCtl.ListCount = 0 Then Exit Sub
Do
i = Func_BinaryListSearch(cboCtl, szEntry)
If i <> -1 Then
cboCtl.ListIndex = i
cboCtl.SelStart = Len(szEntry)
cboCtl.SelLength = Len(cboCtl.List(i)) - Len(szEntry)
Exit Sub
Else
If Len(szEntry) <= 1 Then
cboCtl.ListIndex = 0
Exit Sub
Else
szEntry = left$(szEntry, Len(szEntry) - 1)
End If
End If
