Tab completion of variable names in Editor

Is it possible to have tab-completion of variable names, that are not stored in the workspace?

Example of what I want to accomplish: While writing a script, I might state the variable

verSymLineNos = [...];

A few lines later, I need that variable again, and type

verS<tab>

I get: "no suggestions" But I want verSymLineNos suggested.

It seems to me this is very basic functionality. Am I missing something?

What version of MATLAB are you using? The feature is available. My 2010b version can do that. I think it probably starts at 2010b.
