This article was previously published under Q150753 SUMMARY
Although the default List Box control has basic incremental search
capabilities, the list box must have focus for the function to work. Its
functionality differs from the implementation found in other Windows
applications, such as the Search option of Help, where the string to be
searched for is entered into a text box above a list box that displays the
first matching item as each character is entered.
This article describes how to create a technique that allows a list box to
searched incrementally, regardless of its RowSource type.
