found the following with a search on google for "msdn autocomplete onchange"
(without the quotes).

http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/forms/autocomplete_ovr.asp

  "To determine when a user updates the content of a
   field from the AutoComplete dialog box, use the
   onpropertychange[1] event, rather than the onchange[2]
   event, because the onchange event does not fire."
