If you supply a list of strings to an edit control and set the autocomplete mode and source then you automatically get autocomplete functionality. My question is can I get the same functionality in .NET somewhere without a control. In other words I want something like:

string[] ProgressivePartialMatch( string[] Strings, string MatchText )

and so I want the strings back that would have showed up in the autocomplete, so to speak.
