what GUI control should I use?

[Jeff]

hey

asp.net 2.0

To my webpage I want to use some kind of a list (DropDownList or ListBox).
This GUI control will have many items, but only a few (lets say 10 here) is
visible. That means the user have to scroll in this GUI control to view all
the items.

In addition I want to have some intellisense/type-ahead feature in this
control. So that the user can start typing a value and the list of items in
the GUI control automatically get limited to what the user entered.

If what user entered don't exists. Then the user should get an option of
saving it to the database (adding it to the list)

any idas what controls to use and how to accomplish this is greatly welcome
