I am trying to create an invoice template and added a drop down list
box in the description field to provide valid available product
description to select from to avoid typing.

Problem that I am having is that this only allows me to select
description by scrolling down in the list box. I would like to be able
to type first couple of letters and have the cursor move down to the
correct section to make selection quicker and easier specially since I
will have approx 500 different description to pick from....

Would greatly appreciate any assistance with this request.
 
Data validation doesn't support autocomplete. If you can use
programming, there's a sample file here that provides a combobox from
which you can select one of the values from the data validation list. In
the combobox, you can enable autocomplete:
