TCustomComboBox.AutoComplete Property

Positions to matching list items as you type.

Pascal
property AutoComplete: Boolean;
C++
__property Boolean AutoComplete;

AutoComplete will position to matching list values as you type, saving you keystrokes.  

As you type, the ItemIndex property is updated with the list entry that matches the characters you have entered. As you type, different list entries may match, and ItemIndex changes accordingly.  

There is a delay of AutoCompleteDelay milliseconds between the characters typed and the autocomplete operation.
