New issue 576 by chr4... at ...1601...: TextBox.Select not reliable
https://code.google.com/p/gambas/issues/detail?id=576

Hi,

1) By developing an alternative combobox I found an issue with Gambas  
TextBox. The alternative combobox inherits TextBox. If the user enters  
letters in the combobox it searches in a list and completes the user's  
entry with matching words as a selection. This is done in the project in  
Sub SelectToInput() on line 460 with the code
Me.Select(lensearch, lengridtext).

To reproduce (but is it not always reliable reproducible):

Enter one Letter after the other in the combobox
M - i (the combobox shall complete to Mi-lben)
n - e - r - a - f - u - t - t - e - r
(the combobox shall complete to Min-eralfutter after the "n" and so on)

After a couple of entered letters, sometimes after the second, very often  
within five, the combobox suddenly does not display the completed text as  
selection anymore. But as one can see by watching debug output in the code,  
the selection is registered by the interpreter.

This bug prevents me from further developing of the combobox. tux_ in the  
German forum gambas-club.de could reproduce this bug on his system.

2) Give information about your system. Use the 'System information' menu in
the Gambas IDE, and paste the result there.
