  Hi,
  
  I am using wijmo combo-box that has more than 4000 values in the dropdown list. I want to search by type head search by using “contains” logic but by default, it searches using “startswith” logic.

  Is it possible to search value in drop-down box by contains logic? If yes, let me know how?

  Thank You

  Hi,

  Instead of using the ComboBox, you may use the autocomplete control. Autocomplete controls offer a default search functionality based on contains logic. You may check out the following demo to test if Autocomplete fits your requirement:
