    list and text box??

    I would like to have an option on my form to search for a certain description from a table. This is the only field in the table. I would like to start writing in the text box and for the list to automaticall update to what I have written - i.e if i start to write - flu - I want all the options with this in the descriptions to come up.

    my table is 'Descriptions'
    my text box is 'txtDescriptions' and my list box is 'lstDescriptions'

    What is the code I need?

    Many thanks
