The **EntryCompletion** property indicates whether FileDropComboClass tries to automatically complete the end user selection. A value of one (1) or True enables the automatic completion; a value of zero (0) or False disables automatic completion.

When EntryCompletion is enabled, the FileDropComboClass object displays the list item that is nearest the value entered by the end user. The FileDropComboClass object reevaluates the display immediately after each end user keystroke.

**Implementation:**

The Init method sets the EntryCompletion property to True. The TakeEvent and TakeNewSelection methods implement the behavior specified by EntryCompletion.
