I want to create an Auto-Complete Textbox, in which when the user types an alphanet, it should show a drop down box in which it will display all the entries started by that alphabet. Those entries should be displayed from a database.

Well, the AJAX you can do multiple ways. Personally, I would suggest looking at an autocomplete script I wrote a little while back...http://www.peejavery.com/coding/javascript/autocomplete.php

OK I will stick with AJAX. But can someone show me an example in which Values are Picked from an XML file for autocomplete instead of Database?The reason I wanna go for XML is, because if there are too many records in the Database, data access will become too slow in the autocomplete but thats not in the case XML

I have to admit that I read your first post wrong. I didn't notice "without using AJAX." Take a look at this ( http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=asp.net+autocomplete&btnG=Google+Search) Google search. If none of this will work for you, then come back and we can do the AJAX way.PeejAvery at 2007-11-9 11:56:03 >
