Hi,

if you mean the one built-in with IE (when user has also enabled it) you can
get that quite easily:

<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" AutoComplete="on" Runat="server" />

However, if you mean something like you'd want to bind the values (like
DropDownTextBox) you need to look for a custom control somewhere. Web is
full of them.

This is a custom control (although written in .NET 2.0), which shows
off a rich autocomplete feature (ala google suggest). It gets "auto
completion" data from the server using callbacks (read: xmlhttp).
