autocomplete ends at forward slash

Hi, I've been searching the forum for a solution but they are all deadends.
When using autocomplete on a combobox then the autocompletion stops asa it reaches a forward slash.

F.ex. if one of the items in my combobox is "AnyInc A/S" then my autocomplete (with suggestappend) suggests "AnyInc A/" and the last 'S' is dropped.

Any suggestions on this one Not too keen on replacing the '/' character and then rereplace it or anything like that.

    I fear you're running into the original use for the AutoComplete window: entering URLs in Internet Explorer. "/" means something special of course. I see no option to disable this in IAutoComplete2::SetOptions(). You might want to record this problem at Product Feedback.
