Suppose I have an autocomplete control for search purpose in my wp7 app, and I have a listbox(populated). When I select an item from the listbox, it is copied to the textbox(autocomplete) but it displays the autocomplete options. In this case, I do not want to display the autocomplete options (only for this instance). How can I disable the autcomplete feature when pasting something into the autocomplete control?
