I already have a project that use ShAutoComplete with the URL and Files in my disk. But the MSD mentioned that you can you can use a predefined autocomplete source, or you can write your own custom autocomplete source.

I'm trying to find a way to create a custom autocomplete source.

Does anyone knows how to do this?

Thanks

WOW! this is a really OLD post. I wonder if Moshky is still around.....

Anyway, I need the same thing that he does. I found this address (http://www.vb-world.net/api/tip493.html) for using the SHAutoComplete but it doesn't say where it's pulling the info from. I'd like to pull the info from an Access database to be able to autocomplete a textbox. Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks,

Tom
