TypeDescription
Boolean A boolean expression that indicates whether the control expands items while user types characters to search for items.
Use the ExpandOnSearch property to expand items while user types characters to search for items using incremental search feature. By default, the ExpandOnSearch property is False. Use the AutoSearch property to enable or disable incremental searching feature.
