[Gambas-user] ComboBox as a SearchBox?

[PICCORO McKAY Lenz]

this are in a gambas web project or gambas desktop project?

i search for something similar .. how do you doing..

my idea was using json.. but on desktop can be a pain!

for search, in the input box, made a query with json to a collection with
preloaded data from database
