<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>
      Use the <span class="xref">GrapeCity.Win.Spread.InputMan.CellType.GcTextBox.AutoCompleteCustomSource</span>, <b>AutoCompleteMode</b>,
      and <span class="xref">GrapeCity.Win.Spread.InputMan.CellType.GcTextBox.AutoCompleteSource</span> properties to create a <b>GcTextBox</b> that automatically
      completes input strings by comparing the prefix being entered to the prefixes of all strings in a maintained source.
      This is useful for <b>GcTextBox</b> controls in which URLs, addresses, file names, or commands are frequently entered.
    </p>
<p></p>
<p>
      The use of the <b>AutoCompleteCustomSource</b> property is optional,
      but you must set the <b>AutoCompleteSource</b> property to <b>CustomSource</b>
      in order to use <b>AutoCompleteCustomSource</b>.
    </p>
<p></p>
<p>
      You must use the <b>AutoCompleteMode</b> and <b>AutoCompleteSource</b>
      properties together.
