Excel Validation list
In a long validation list of people's names, is there any way to jump to the
J's if the user types a J? I have a list of about 2000 names and want the user to be able to quickly jump to a name that starts with the letter the user typed |

Excel Validation list
Hi SeniorVol,
Data validation does not include an autocomplete feature. To overcome this deficiency, consider using a combobox. See Debra Dalgleish's notes at: http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal10.html --- Regards, Norman "SeniorVol" wrote in message ...
