  Something like this:
  
  

  var fldAssignee = $("input[name='AssignedWorkItem']").data("kendoAutoComplete");

  // Force the list open
  fldAssignee.search();

  
  These controls are Telerik Kendo UI widgets, so their documentation is particularly helpful when trying to figure out how to do something like this.

  Cool thanks, I was looking for auto-expand on their documentation site (it helped me before with some CI filter), but didn't know Search() was the one

  That is understandable.  The same methods/events/properties have different names on some of the different controls, and there are also duplicates (and seemingly duplicated but with subtle differences) to make things even more confusing.  It takes a lot of trial and error to figure these out, even while staring at the documentation.  Add to that the fact that this product has some customized versions of a few controls, and it can definitely be tricky.
