    Autocomplete on combobox

    Hi guys

    I am contacting you for help regarding data validation / combobox for my shops in Colombia (on office 2007, that will be shared on a network).
    I would appreciate your help because I have been trying to get this combobox working for a while now…

    On the following URL you will find the excel file: http://www.speedyshare.com/file/Kkym...fice-2007.xlsx
    -in the sheet “informe diario”, I would like to have autocomplete on the data validation for columns “cliente” and “producto” (the data for "cliente" can be found on another sheet “clientes y descuentos”, same for “producto” data can be found in “lista de precios”).

    I really hope you can help me, because without autocomplete I will lose a lot of time…

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards.

    Seba

    P.S.: It has to work in office 2007 (am not able to upgrade/downgrade office versions)

    This is more what you need.... http://blogs.office.com/b/microsoft-...-controls.aspx


    That link will help you get your Controls Tools visible and then you add the ActiveX ComboBox quickly. Give that a try.
