Hi

I have a large table with names, dispalyed in a listbox. How is it possible to do a incremental search, like the combobox, in the listbox? The listbox uses only the first letter to search, combo uses all letters you type in for searching ::

I think the best approach is to actually use a text box, prompt the
user..and THEN fill the listbox.

Having the listbox fill as each character is typed really does not help
much. I mean, you get a bunch of flickering..and it really hits the
processing hard also.

I mean...let the user type in a few characters..and then do the search.

Here is some screen shots of what I mean:
