[Uniface-L] Auto-complete combo box
Kevin Darbin
Hello,
Does anyone know of a way of coding an auto-complete combo box in Uniface?
For example, I have a combo box which contains the following values:-
Andrew Andrews
Andrew Smith
Andy Jones
Andy Lewis
If I type the “A” in the combo box, it should automatically complete to “Andrew Andrews”, with the cursor placed after the initial “A”, and the rest of the name selected.
Then if I were to continue typing, after each key stroke, the first item in the list that matches what has been input should be selected. Therefore if I typed “Andrew S” then “Andrew Smith” should be automatically selected.
Hopefully this does make some sense !!
If anyone has any ideas on how to achieve this, it would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Kevin
