This version allows for multiple keystrokes to refine the search.� It works much like the Windows searchable lists do.� Every keystroke within 3 seconds of each other will be added to the criteria for the search.� After 3 seconds the buffer is reset and starts at the first character again.

�

That's 3 seconds between each keystroke, so you can keep typing if necessary.� It won't reset until the next keystroke when it checks the inter-keystroke time to see if it is more than 3 seconds, if it is, the buffer is set to the current keystroke rather than appending to the buffer.

�

It's not perfect yet, will skip down one match even when you still match the current line, but it's darn close for 30 seconds worth of work.

Hi Marshall -

Nice job! I updated your code a little because of a small change required for jBase compatibility, and moved the source to the Code Samples forum.

Thanks,

Pete
