Hi there

I'm trying to do that same thing, but using a comboboxentry, wich gets the
list from a DB.

This is my code and it gets the values from the DB and show them as a
combolist, but I have
no idea of how to add that autocomplete function to that. This is my code so
far.



	widget = "combo_widget" # "combo widget" is a comboboxenty and I0m using
glade to create it.
	self.combo = self.xml.get_widget(widget)

	self.c.execute("SELECT column FROM table")
	list = self.c.fetchall()
	for values in list:
		self.combo.append_text('%s' % values[0])

Thanks
