Users asked for "Search As You Type" combo box.

Attached a form that will let you Search As You Type.
You can search the same list in two different fields.
Use spaces to search for multiple words in the same search field.
The limitation of this search routine is the use of a ListBox that can't roll over the form.

Comments are welcome.

new version with minor changes

G'day,

Every time I try to down load the mdb file you have attached to the repository I get the following errors. It appears as though it is trying to download a .php file instead of the .mdb file

I am also getting the same problem with other mdb file examples on this site.

Is there a reason why?

I am using Office 2010 running on Win7 (64 bit) and IE version 11
:banghead:

Numerous people have had this problem. If memory serves, it's an IE problem, so my first suggestion would be to try a different browser if possible.

It is a pain and does seem to be IE only but when downloading, either save as and change the file type to mdb/accdb as appropriate or if saved to the downloads folder, select open with and choose Access (you may have to search for it initially).

I also use Chrome and Firefox and they both work OK for downloading
