I am using windows form(C#) for searching employee details based on name and ID. I am able to get details if i provide full name but i want to get the names if i provide some part of name. For example, if i give "la" it should display all names from database table starting with "la" (laxmi, lalitha, latha etc)in a drop down and upon selecting desired name all the details of that particular employee should be filled in appropriate textboxes.

The question your asked is very vague. All I can suggest you is, to implement AJAX search(if you are using ASP.NET).

To help you better, can you please provide more information on:
What presentation (ASP/Windows/WPF..) you are using?
Where you are stuck?
What is the issue you are facing?

Thanks for the response.
But i have already designed a web form and added search employee groupbox which has ID and First name. Like google search which searches based on patterns i want to search for a particular employee based on First name by giving only part of his/her name so that it displays all the names of employees based on that portion of given string.
