Notice:
FmMatchEntryComplete 1 Extended matching. As each character is typed, the
control searches for an entry matching all characters entered (default).
says it is the default - This appears to be what the OP wanted so it should
require no additional action beyond assigning a sorted range of values in the
ListFillRange property.

if it's sorted you can use one of the matchentry properties for the combobox:
select the cobobox and press F4.
look for matchentry
fmMatchEntryFirstLetter 0 Basic matching. The control searches for the
next entry that starts with the character entered. Repeatedly typing the same
letter cycles through all entries beginning with that letter.

FmMatchEntryNone 2 No matching.

Tom: I'm new at this could you help me a little more on comboboxs. I read
the help file but it didn't really help me!

If your data is sorted, then you could use the Combobox from the Control
