Autoshow whole word when typing one item in the data validation bo
I have created a data validation list. Now, I want to type the first
character of the word, then the whole word will be displayed like when you type a word in the combo box, the whole word will be displayed. E.g. The list is the following: 1. monday 2. tuesday 3. wednesday When type in "m", it should show "monday". What should I do to make the whole word shows when typing the first character? please advice. Thanks. |

Thanks. You might get away with inserting 3 rows directly above the validation dropdown, typing "monday", "tuesday" then "wednesday" respectively into the inserted rows, then hiding those three rows. This will work if Tools|Options|Edit..."Enable AutoComplete for cell values" is selected. Ken Johnson |
