## ControlMatchEntryType enumeration

Represents how a ListBox or ComboBox searches its list as the user types.

```csharp
public enum ControlMatchEntryType
```

### Values

| Name | Value | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| FirstLetter | `0` | The control searches for the next entry that starts with the character entered. Repeatedly typing the same letter cycles through all entries beginning with that letter. |
| Complete | `1` | As each character is typed, the control searches for an entry matching all characters entered. |
| None | `2` | The list will not be searched when characters are typed. |

### Examples

```csharp
using System;
using Aspose.Cells;
using Aspose.Cells.Drawing;
using Aspose.Cells.Drawing.ActiveXControls;

namespace AsposeCellsExamples
{
    public class ControlMatchEntryTypeDemo
    {
        public static void ControlMatchEntryTypeExample()
        {
            // Create a new workbook
            Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

            // Add a new worksheet to the workbook
            Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];

            // Add sample data to the worksheet
            worksheet.Cells["A1"].PutValue("Item");
            worksheet.Cells["A2"].PutValue("Apple");
            worksheet.Cells["A3"].PutValue("Banana");
            worksheet.Cells["A4"].PutValue("Cherry");

            // Add a ComboBox ActiveX control to the worksheet
            var shape = worksheet.Shapes.AddActiveXControl(ControlType.ComboBox, 5, 0, 1, 0, 100, 20);
            ComboBoxActiveXControl comboBox = (ComboBoxActiveXControl)shape.ActiveXControl;

            // Set properties for the ComboBox
            comboBox.ListWidth = 100;
            comboBox.ListRows = 3;
            comboBox.ColumnCount = 1;
            comboBox.MatchEntry = ControlMatchEntryType.Complete; // Set the MatchEntry type to Complete
            comboBox.IsEditable = true;

            // Add items to the ComboBox
            comboBox.Value = "Apple;Banana;Cherry";

            // Add a ListBox ActiveX control to the worksheet
            var shape2 = worksheet.Shapes.AddActiveXControl(ControlType.ListBox, 10, 0, 1, 0, 100, 60);
            ListBoxActiveXControl listBox = (ListBoxActiveXControl)shape2.ActiveXControl;

            // Set properties for the ListBox
            listBox.ListWidth = 100;
            listBox.ColumnCount = 1;
            listBox.MatchEntry = ControlMatchEntryType.FirstLetter; // Set the MatchEntry type to FirstLetter
            listBox.SelectionType = SelectionType.Single;

            // Add items to the ListBox
            listBox.Value = "Apple;Banana;Cherry";

            // Save the workbook
            workbook.Save("ControlMatchEntryTypeExample.xlsx");
            workbook.Save("ControlMatchEntryTypeExample.pdf");

            // Output the results
            Console.WriteLine("ComboBox and ListBox with different MatchEntry types have been created and saved to ControlMatchEntryTypeExample.xlsx");
        }
    }
}
