    Hi Does anyone know of a control that is a texbox that contains a dropdownlist. I need to be able to type into the textbox, if there are any matches in the contained dropdownlist (matching on starting characters of the list items) they are displayed in the popped out dropdownlist and the user can select one. If there are no matches the list won't be displayed and the control will just capture the users typed text (to be written to a database). Does anyone have/know of a control like this that I can use? Thanks

      There may be an ajax control in the ASP.NET library that does this.

          The ASP.NET AJAX library is easily found and downloaded if you look here[^]. Yes, you can add it any time you like.
