Hi
I have got a WinForms application written in C# compiled under .NET framework version 4.0. On a form I have one Textbox control with AutoCompleSource property set to AutoCompleteSource.CustomSource. I want to provide a autocomplete functionality for that textbox.I assign AutoCompleteCustomSource property with a AutoCompleteStringCollection. AutoCompleteStringCollection contains a list a strings that can appear while the user is enetering characters into a textbox. That functionality works fine and I achieve what I wanted BUT only for some amount (event for thousands it works fine) of strings stored in AutoCompleteStringCollection. Recently I have tested my application against 211 thousands of items and something different is going on. When I enter up to 3 or 4 characters into textbox autocomplete list does not show all strings that are matching filter criteria. It shows most of them but not all of them. Some items are missing. After I enter more than 4 characters suddenly the list is recalculated and shows all matching items. Is there any way to control that behaviour? I would like to show always all matching elements, not only after 5th character is entered. Any help would be appreciated.
