Declaration
function PartialMatch(StartOfKey : TKey) : boolean;
Description
The PartialMatch method searches the list of keys for a match of the beginning of the key with the StartOfKey parameter. The search begins after the current item. If a match occurs ItemIndex is changed accordingly, the function returns true (otherwise false), and the OnFound event is triggered.
To catch a possible match with the first key in the list it is necessary to preface the first call to PartialMatch with PartialMatchInit.
