Read a file and add the list to an AutoCompleteEditText

[isuru]

I'm trying to read a file and add its content to a AutoCompleteEditText like in SearchView.

Sub Process_Globals
   Dim index As Object
End Sub

Sub Globals
   Dim ACT As AutoCompleteEditText
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
   Activity.LoadLayout("layout1")
    Dim countries As List
   countries = File.ReadList(File.DirAssets, "cities.txt")
   index = ACT.SetItems(countries)
End Sub

But it throws a compile time error 'Cannot assign void value.' on the line index = ACT.SetItems(countries)

It works fine on SearchView though. Is there a different method to add a list from a file to an AutoCompleteEditText?

Thank you

The SetItems method has not return value so you must remove the "index ="

I got it.

Dim countries As List
countries = File.ReadList(File.DirAssets, "Cities.txt")
ACT.SetItems(countries)
