On the cell where you want this to happen, click on Data | Validation
and on the Settings tab of the dialogue box click on the drop-down
under Allow. Select List and then put the cell references where your
invoice numbers are in the Source box. Click OK when finished.

Now when you select that cell you will see a pull-down which will give
you the list of invoice numbers when you click on it.

Hope this helps.

I'm not sure if this is what you want, but let's try!

Put your invoice numbers in cells in a range, say A1:A10. (This is just an
example - you can make the list as long as you need.)
Select the cells where you want to be able to choose one from this list and
do
Data Validation
In the box called "Allow" choose "List".
Click in the box called "Source" and then select your range (A1:A10 in my
example).
Click "OK".
Now, whenever you select one of the cells you have just "validated", a
drop-down arrow will appear that will allow you to choose any value invoice
number.
