I have a RodComboBox that has default values loaded in from a dataset, but I am also allowing the user to enter a new value if their desired option is not in the list.  I have auto complete on, but if a user types fast enough they can enter a duplicate of an existing value.  What I want to do is verify the entered value does not match an existing value.  If the value does exist I would like to return it's value.  ASP's ComboBox has the method FindStringExact which seems to be perfect for this scenario, but I have not seen this method in the RadComboBox.  I'm using Q2 2012 if that helps.

Thanks

Hi,

You can set the MarkFirstMatch property to True when using AutoComplete feature of combobox. Check the following help documentation for more.
