AutoComplete programmatically select an item

[reza fotovat]

Hi, I set a Textbox that link to the autocomplete control populated with a bindingsource,

I want to add an new item that typed in the textbox to the dataset and I do that with BeforeAddItem Event

my question is how can I select the added item or pass it to AutoCompleteItemSelected Event ?

Hi Reza,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

Please find the following code snippets that selects the newly added item from the Autocomplete control.

 void autoComplete1_AutoCompleteItemSelected(object sender, 
Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.AutoCompleteItemEventArgs args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(args.SelectedValue);
            Console.WriteLine(this.textBox1.Text);
        }

Please find a simple sample in the following link:

If I have misunderstood your requirement, could you please explain me in detail so that I could work out in depth and provide you a better solution?

Please let me know if any concerns.

Regards,
Fathima
