search box in java like the one in web browsers

Question

I have an application where I implemented an onKeyPressed event listener for a text field.

In this listener I do a search for results like the input inmy database.

Is there a way that I can show an autocomplete list for the text box displaying the results of the database search?

Is there a question here somewhere? – Rick Mangi Jul 16 '13 at 16:23 — Rick Mangi, Jul 16 '13 at 16:23

If you are using swing you can attempt to link the textbox with a list and then you can achive autocomplete functionality using the swing autocomplete package.

Also see this question. Or this one.
