How do I get a List Pulldown from Data Validation to
Autofill when users enter the first letter(s)?
 
What you can do is place the source range for the
validation list directly above the validation cell, then
hide those rows.

And just to add to Jason's reply, I think you'll want to turn on:

Tools|options|edit tab|Enable Autocomplete for cell values.

Another option may be to just add a combobox from the controltoolbox toolbar.
There's a setting there that allows you to match the entry (.matchentry). And
with the .style set to fmstyledropdownlist, it might suffice.
