[Solved] Type Ahead Feature for searching list

[Brian Mains]

Hello,

I was wondering if this feature exists for the ComboBox; for the list of ComboBox items, I was wondering if it was possible to be able to type items into the list, and have those items selected.  For instance, if the combo is a list of states, and I start typing A, it would select the first A, but as I type RK, it would select Arkansas, not jump down to Kentucky (which is the default functionality because typing the letter evaluates only the first letter).

Does that exist?

Thanks.

Hi Brian Mains,

You can achieve this functionality by setting the property, MarkFirstMatch to "true" of the RadComboBox.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" Runat="server" MarkFirstMatch="true">
    <Items>
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Arkansas" Value="Arkansas" />
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="RadComboBox" Value="RadComboBox" />
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Kentucky" Value="Kentucky" />
    </Items>
</telerik:RadComboBox>

Thanks,
Princy.
