Control for tags with auto-completion in Winforms?

问题

I am seeking a WinForm control that would provide an autocomplete behavior for multiple space-separated - exactly ala del.icio.us (or stackoverflow.com for that matter).

Does anyone knows how to do that within a .NET 2.0 WinForm application?

回答1:

ComboBox can autocomplete, but only one word at a time.

If you want to have each word separately autocompleted, you have to write your own.

I already did, hope it's not too long. It's not 100% exactly what you want, this was used for autocompleting in email client when typing in email adress.

/// <summary>
