Hello all,

I have 2 systems. On 1 system when I fill out info a small box will appear
with info that fits what I am typing and I then can choose what I want. The
other system does not do this.

How can I set it up so when I am filling in info it will remember and have a
drop down box with that info so I do not have to type in the complete info.

Also is that just of IE or a Windows feature.

Running XP SP2, IE 6.xx

Thanks,
Xanth
