Default Textboxes remembering previous entries

I have a Userform with around 25 textboxes on it. What I am wondering is it
possible to have the textbox remember previous entries in order to make it
quicker when filling in my form. Example, if i enter "Tom" into the textbox
is there anyway to make it so that the next time I enter "T" it will
automatically bring up "Tom" or any other word that has been entered into the
textbox that begins with "T". If not is it possible to allow the person
entering data into the textboxes to copy an answer from one textbox and
pasting it in another textbox because currently I can't right click on any of
the textboxes. Thanks.

Maybe you could use a combobox instead--and give the users a list to choose
while allowing them to type.

Try ctrl-c to copy and ctrl-v to paste in your textboxes.
