Default Auto Fill from Drop Down list

If you wish to use a DV dropdown you will have no autocomplete feature.

That was the message I was trying to impart with my first response.

Thanks for the info, Gord.

I'm not sure I'm wanting a combo box, do I need to have one for this to be
possible?

Howdy All,

I have several cells that have drop down lists associated with them.

What I would like to do is have the cell populate from the drop down list
when the first few letters are typed, even though the value hasn't been
typed previously.

Is this possible?

Thanks,
Brian
