autocomplete - Auto append/complete from text file to an edit box delphi -

I am trying to create an edit box and I want the text entered during typing to auto-fill Able to do. The text will be added with a "suggestion" from a text file.

Let's say that my suggestion file contains: Marilyn Monroe Marlon Brando Mike Myers

As I started typing "M", in the edit box, the rest highlight ( Or not) will appear: "Arylin Monroe" and as I keep typing "MI", then "the myers" will appear in the end, I hope I am making this obvious enough for you! Thanks for your help!
