Hi!  I'm looking for a way to make this function offer suggestions even when the entry does not match the first word in the phrase but matches the second or subsequent  word. 

For example, if my customer types in "Henry," our auto-suggest currently offers Henry Altman, Henry Boyd, Henry Cruise.  HOWEVER, we also want it to offer other names like John Henry, Mary Grace Henry, etc..  Can this be done?

Will really appreciate any help/suggestion anyone can offer.  Thanks!

Try this:

In the properties of the DNNTextSuggest control set TextSuggestScriptPath to js/

Go to the js subdirectory in the DNN installation and edit dnn.controls.dnntextsuggest.js  and debug/dnn.controls.dnntextsuggest.js deleting this:  this.formatText(tsNode.text).indexOf(this.formatText(this.getText())) == 0 &&

Assuming that it uses a web service to return the suggestions - I think this requires a change to the server side code.

The control can only show what the server sends it.

Richard,

The .js code filters what you send to the control in the PopulateOnDemand event.

Modifying the .js is the way.

Gino.
