How do I select form a drop down box by typing the first part?
I have created a drop down box with many entries in it. Is there a way I can
begin typing and have it find the first match and then select with the mouse the right one? |

Data Validation drop-downs do not allow for autocomplete.
To get that feature you need a combo-box. Debra Dalgleish has done the work for you. http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlDataVal10.html Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Tue, 22 Nov 2005 12:45:05 -0800, StacieKTU wrote: I have created a drop down box with many entries in it.
