asp.net autosuggest control

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for an autosuggest control to use in my asp.net application. I'm thinking of one like the google suggest or something alike, which is based on ajax. But I don't want to develop it from scratch, so I'm hoping that somewhere there's already someone who did it, who's code I can use and adapt.
do you know of any?

There is one related to the anthemdotnet framework: http://www.anthemdotnet.com/ , but the visual studio 2003 version that I tried doesn't work well in internet explorer and it actively tries to autosuggest in the textbox itself which is pretty annoying, when it isn't the right option.

Another is this one: http://www.entechsolutions.com/Developer...
But it only gives you solutions based on the first character, it doesn't continue to shorten the options as you type.

Maybe you should take a look at the atlas framework from Microsoft, which I believe is now called just AJAX: http://ajax.asp.net/Default.aspx?tabid=4...

forgot to mention that the Microsoft AJAX framework requires the .NET 2.0 framework.

there is also this framework called ajaxpro.net, which has a demonstration of a autocomplete control: http://munich.schwarz-interactive.de/aut...

But I never got it to work, the instructions of how to set it up are not very easy to find or follow

thanks multani.sarbjit, it looks easy like that, but I really wanted a finished control, so that I wouldn't have to develop it from scratch.
There are a lot of finer details that it would take a while to develop.
