How can I set value in code for AutoComplete?

[ArtyGreis]

I have collection List like autoComplete.DataSource. And I need select first value in datasource like current choose in programming code and the event AutoCompleteItemSelected needs to be triggered. autoComplete.SelectedValue = "value" don't work. I want to work like here: https://help.syncfusion.com/aspnetmvc/autocomplete/how-to?cs-save-lang=1&cs-lang=razor, only for WinForms.

Hey,

if you do this, also do it for the SyncFusion Blazor AutoComplete, because it is not working on that component also.
