Description

The value of the Match_Length property sets the number of character that must be typed into the invoking item to satisfy the requirements for a match with a value of an item in this object. The default (-1) provides behaviors that are sensitive to the values of Export_Description_State and Description_Offset, and are suitable for most purposes. If this property is zero (0) or one (1), a single (the initial) character satisfies a match. If you set the property above 1, that number or more of the leading characters must match to validate.
