Default No drop down list type-ahead?

Depends on how you create that dropdown list.

If you use the combobox from the control toolbox toolbar, you can get this
effect.

I've added a drop down list which pulls its list data from another worksheet,
this all works exactly as expected, except there is not type-ahead feature.

For example, if the list contains the following entries:

ABC
DEF
GHI
JKL

I would assume once I typed in 'D' in the list, 'DEF' would be displayed.

Is there any way of enabling this? The customer requires this as their list
may contain a few hundred entries and they do not want to scroll through the
lists to find an entry.

Thanks.
