Hi 

 

I am not sure if this sounds a bit absurd, but is there a way we can autocomplete/auto select an item being search for if the letter/word appears any where in the item e.g. 

 Following are the items in my combo box 

 A - Red Apples

 B - Oranges

 C - Bananas

 D- Green Apples

If i start typing the first word it picks the item fine but if i start typing the 2nd word e..g. Apples it won't auto complete the text as Green Apples.

 Please advice is this is even possible ?

Hello Rishi,

I am afraid that the desired functionality is not supported with the RadComboBox. If you type Apples in the input, the control cannot be aware if you need to autocomplete the Red or the Green Apples.

Hi,

Do you use filtering?

Please take a look at http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/combobox/examples/functionality/autocompleteclientside/defaultcs.aspx

Hope this helps.
