C# code to display names in text box from backend alphabetically

HI,

In myWindows project i am using text box to disply names which are stored in the database, when i type the specific name it displays the name from database. But what i want is, when i type "v" it should display all names starts with "V".Any one help me by giving the appropriate CODE in C#.

Use ListBox instead. It already handles the keystroke selection for you.

Hi Vinod,
What are you using to display list of database ? I think instead of textbox , combobox would be better option, it will do what you needed.
