How to select the first matching row in the MultiColumnComboBox?

[Ammar]

Hi,

I wanted to know what are the possible solutions to select the first matching entry in a MultiColumnComboBox

For example,

Data

a1

a2

a3

b1

b2

b3

c1

c2

c3

c4

-----------------

 Now suppose if i type "a" in the textbox the control should automatically move the selectedItem/SelectedValue to "a1" and from there I can select either a1,a2,a3

Similarly if i type "b" it should select "b1" and from there onwards I can select b1,b2,b3

How can I achieve this?
