I make a multi column combo box. if we type in that combobox then matched values are returning. But i want that if user hit enter key only then the matched values will return and will not search items on press of any other key. Please suggest me some solution. My html and c# code is given below:

<telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadScriptManager>
    <telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" runat="server" Skin="Vista" Height="190px"
        Width="420px" MarkFirstMatch="true" EnableLoadOnDemand="true"
        HighlightTemplatedItems="true" OnClientItemsRequested="UpdateItemCountField"
        OnDataBound="RadComboBox1_DataBound" OnItemDataBound="RadComboBox1_ItemDataBound"
        OnItemsRequested="RadComboBox1_ItemsRequested"
        OnClientKeyPressing="HandkeKeyPress" >
         <HeaderTemplate>
            <ul>
                <li class="col1">Name</li>
                <li class="col2">Number</li>
                <%--<li class="col3">Title</li>--%>
            </ul>
        </HeaderTemplate>
        <ItemTemplate>
            <ul>
                <li class="col1">
                    <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name") %></li>
                <li class="col2">
                    <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Number") %></li>
                <%--<li class="col3">
                    <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ContactTitle") %></li>--%>
            </ul>
        </ItemTemplate>
        <FooterTemplate>
            A total of
            <asp:Literal runat="server" ID="RadComboItemsCount" />
            items
        </FooterTemplate>
    </telerik:RadComboBox>

and c# code is:

private DataTable table;
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        DoDataBind();
    }

    public void DoDataBind()
    {
        DataTable dt = CreateData();
        RadComboBox1.DataSource = dt.DefaultView;
        RadComboBox1.DataBind();

    }
    protected void RadComboBox1_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        ((Literal)RadComboBox1.Footer.FindControl("RadComboItemsCount")).Text = Convert.ToString(RadComboBox1.Items.Count);
    }
    private DataTable CreateData()
    {
        table = new DataTable();
        table.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
        table.Columns.Add("Number", typeof(int));
        table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "one", "1" });
        table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "two", "2" });
        table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "three", "3" });
        table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "four", "4" });
        table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "five", "5" });
        table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "six", "6" });
        return table;
    }
    protected void RadComboBox1_ItemsRequested(object sender, RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs e)
    {

        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
        dt.Columns.Add("Number", typeof(int));
        DataRow[] foundRows;
        foundRows = table.Select("Name LIKE '" + e.Text + "%'");
        foreach (DataRow dr in foundRows)
        {

            dt.ImportRow(dr);
        }
        RadComboBox1.DataSource = dt;
        RadComboBox1.DataBind();
    }

    protected void RadComboBox1_ItemDataBound(object sender, RadComboBoxItemEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Item.Text = ((DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem)["Name"].ToString() + " (" +((DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem)["Number"].ToString() +")";
        e.Item.Value = ((DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem)["Number"].ToString();
    }
