I do not understand your question.

how you filter data? are you using AutoCompleteSource or any event like KeyPress to filter and display data?
update the question with related code samples

set the following properties for combobox

C#

comboBox1.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend;
comboBox1.AutoCompleteSource = AutoCompleteSource.ListItems;

5*Worth mentioning that these can be set via the property windows at design time if desired

What you are after is AutoComplete functionality - but the default behaviour for a combobox is to just use the first letter of your "search"

This CP article might help (I haven't tried it personally) Auto Complete ComboBox[^] and there are further options on this SO Post[^]
