[solved] search as you type

[gin]

Hello,

Is this possible?

An example would be google's "instant search" that shows related search phrases as you type.

Thanks.

Where it would be used? In a custom dialog? Possible. Need some programming.

I think so. I have a list of text that I want to search-as-i-type.
