I am using a form to input data and in one of the fields I want to type a
letter and have all previous entries with that letter display so that one can
be chosen. Is there a way to do this? I'm trying not to creat a separate
table with this information, it would be a lot of extra work as there are
well over a thousand different choices.

I can so some programming if VERY clear instructions are given on where to
insert the code.
 
Use a combo box and set the Auto Expand property to Yes. As you type it will
go to the frist match like this --
Typed -- AS
Display -- As
Ask
Astro
Astronomical
