There are instructions in the workbook for viewing the combobox and
changing its properties. To show more rows, change the ListRows
property, which is currently set at 12.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply. The sample is almost fit to my needs. But I
have about 500 customer data base and I could not expand the drop down box
more than 7 and 12 rows. Please help.

This previous post by Debra Dalgleish would be of interest:

"Although data validation doesn't support autocomplete, there's a sample
file here that provides a combobox from which you can select one of the
values from the data validation list. In the combobox, you can enable
autocomplete:

Under 'Data Validation', look for 'Data Validation Combobox' "

Hi,

I want to create a drop down menu for my customer list. The drop down

menu

should have a auto search function. eg. If I type in "Mic", the drop

down

menu will bring me to the customer name close to "Mic". How can I do it?
Can I update the customer list regularly.

Pong
