Does anyone have any information on using IE’s autocomplete feature in a custom VBA form inside Word? Essentially, I’m trying to create a text box in a Userform that will keep track of previously entered information and then resolve any matching entries.
For example, let’s say a user enters a list of names… [Jane Doe, Robert Smith, Bob Jones]
The next time the user goes to the text box and enters “Jones”, I’d like the autocomplete feature to offer an option of using “Bob Jones”.
I have a method of doing this by storing the last x number of unique entries in the registry or in an INI file and checking the field on exit using the “LIKE” operator with wildcards, but IE’s autocomplete feature seems to be prospectively more elegant. Any tips?
Thanks!
