1) Did you search the forum? Questions on "auto complete" are asked regularly.

2) What is an auto complete text area? I've seen seen a component like that.

Basically, what you are looking for is similar to the functionality of an AutoComplete JComboBox. Try searching for that instead. (Both this forum and on Google)

Also, such a functionality sounds a bit abstract cause an Auto Complete component would have to have some sort of list of items to compare the typed content with. This means you would also have to create a component to store what is typed into the textArea (save to disk in some format) and then reload this data when the application runs so a search can made from the list.
