Hi friends,

  I have 1000 items in the select control. I want to select an item automatically while typing the characters. Just like " index in the HTML help"

How can i do this.

Thanx in advance

You'll need to create some javascript functionality to do this.

Use the onKeyUp event in the textbox you are entering the search string.
Loop thru the items in the select control and compare against the search string. You'll have to do a partial comparison so you can match the beginning of the options with what you have typed.

I have seen some ready built ones, search for DHTML combobox on Google.
