1) Try not to have any empty cells throughout the range.
2) Check the Auto-fill feature in the first empty cell below the last cell
of the range.

Hi,

I have column with DropDown List.. The items are

a. Documentation
b. Logic
c. Optimization

Is there a option to automatically fill a cell, if I type the first letter
of an item?

Also when I type alt+ down arrow the list appears. I would like to fill the
cell when the first letter of an item is typed.

Is that possible?

Thanks!
