That i can do something and put in "S" and all the companies starting with S

You can use autofiltering (Data - Filter - AutoFilter). From drop down list
select "custom" and set filter condition "s". Excuse me, I don't use English
version.
Before you use this, you need in first row names of columns (name, city,
tel, etc)

This can be done with a combobox from the control toolbox.
