Remarks

If AssistedInputConfigure is called on a edit control, the option "Assisted input based on data binding" is automatically enabled on this control ("Details" tab of the control description window).
The list containing the choices is not opened immediately. To do so:
- the user must type a value corresponding to the beginning of one of the choices found in the list,
- AssistedInputOpen must be called.
If the edit control is linked to a data file:
- only the default filter ("Starts with" filter) is available.
- the linked item must be key (optimize the browse performances).
