Is this what you are looking for ?
Inspired by the code from your link and using the Door library.
Unfortunately it works only on the desktop because SelectionStart and SelectionLength for a ComboBox are not supportd on the device, it seems also that the KeyUp event is not supportd on the device.
For the device you could mix the code below with the one in the other thread.
Best regards.

Attached a version that works also on the device.
With a TextBox covering the ComboBox.
Using the Door library.
Unfortunately the KeyUp event for a TextBox is also not supported on the device, even though it should be according to MS's documents.
So I use the KeyDown and TextChanged events.
