Hi Tom,
I'm not sure if I was clear enough on my post. I'm trying to get the same
affect that Yahoo has on it's search engine. On Yahoo, if you were to type
in the search field, let's say "Dog ", it would automatically show a drop
down list of anything that begins with "Dog " and any trailing words in their
search list. As you type more like "Dog B" for "Breed", it would go down the
list for the closest match. Once you find what you are looking for you would
hit the enter key. This is what I'm trying to do with this Masterlist using
a combo box. I want to be able to have the cursor go down to the closest
match on my "Masterlist" range name and allow me to scroll up or down until I
find what I'm looking for and than simply hit the enter key to select. I
guess you can say it is like an autofill based on the "Masterlist" data. Is
this possible?
Thanks for your help.
