font strike through in a Combo

[mc13]

I am needing to creat a font strike through combo box. The client would like it to act like the combo in Access.<br>I have it working for the first letter type and it searches the list and retieves the first value that matches this letter. Now I need it to work on any string that is typed in the combo and either come up blank or with value.<br>thanks

mc13 -- i'm confused now -- are you looking for a combobox with a better search (not just first letters) or do you want to use strike-thru fonts....? <p>Mike<br><a href=mailto:michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com>michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com</a><br><a href=

Sorry for the confusion! What I am looking for is a better search. Where it searches as you type if in the combobox.

Ok<br><br>There's a good control described in &quot;Instant Visual Basic 5 ActiveX Control Creation&quot; by (quite a list of people actually) isbn 1861000235 from Wrox Press<br><br>You can get the just the code for the control (all code in the book actually) from:<br><br><A HREF="

on code - choose the above title from list<br><br>We use a slightly modified version of this control at work - it seems fine.<br> <p>Mike<br><a href=mailto:michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com>michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com</a><br><a href=
