    Type-Ahead in a control

    I'm looking to get type-ahead functionality in a control in InfoPath. I'm trying to avoid using any code-behind. I'm using a web service to load the contacts from my sharepoint team site using the following format: http:///_vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx. Can anyone point me to a resource for implementing this? It could be in a text box. Thanks in advance.

    You get AutoComplete out-of-the-box when you use Internet Explorer and InfoPath, but that won't really help you.

    The stock drop down and combo box will scroll the list to the location matching the typed in prefix. That should be good enough no?

    Otherwise, you'd have to create a special control (ActiveX) since InfoPath doesn't support this out-of-the-box.

    Thanks very much! I'm having trouble binding a list of values to a combo box or drop-down list box to the results of a web service. It only seems to be showing the first value. Can you point me in the right direction for a resource on this? Thanks again
