How to auto complete a text edit field in app-designer?

I designed an app using Matlab app-designer. It requires a filename input as below:

File1 = ['working/', strtok(app.fileName.Value), '.xlsx'];

I have about 50 Excel files in my working folder ('working'). How do I implement auto complete for this field, so that after I type a few letters, the entire file name will show up?

Have you considered instead using a dropdown with the options being the spreadhseets in the working directory?
