Here is a method from msdn to provide data to an autocomplete extender / textbox:
<System.Web.Services.WebMethodAttribute(), System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethodAttribute()> _
Public Shared Function GetCompletionList(ByVal prefixText As String, ByVal count As Integer, ByVal contextKey As String) As String()
' Create array of movies
Dim movies() As String = {"Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Superman", "Memento", "Shrek", "Shrek II"}
' Return matching movies
Return From m In movies(6) Where _
(m.StartsWith(prefixText, StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
Select m).Take(count).ToArray()
End Function
The errors are:
m.StartsWith - ('Startswith' is not a member of 'Char')
Select m - ('Select Case' must end with a matching end select)
.Take(count).ToArray() - (End of statement expected)
Can you please let me know how to get this function working? Thanks
