Can I use the AutoComplete control in a UserControl?

The AutoComplete control can be used in a UserControl just like it can be used in a form.

In the case that the AutoComplete control is used in a UserControl, the parent form of the UserControl has to be set to the ParentForm property of the AutoComplete control.

C#

private void UserControl1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    this.autoComplete1.ParentForm = this.ParentForm;
    this.autoComplete1.DataSource = this.items;
}

VB

Private Sub UserControl1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
    Me.autoComplete1.ParentForm = Me.ParentForm 
    Me.autoComplete1.DataSource = Me.items 
End Sub
