    selecting an item in combobox, the item does not get selected

    I am getting close to finishing the drop down menu capability when filling in column L in tab Transactions. However, there is a snag. When I enter part of account say "fin" (the important part here is that the part of the word should not be the beginning of the account name) - then I select an account from the menu - but it does not stay in the cell if the part of the name is the beginning of the account name - all is fine. How I can have this fixed?

    To which cells it refers
    Notice my main language is not English.

    Re: selecting an item in combobox, the item does not get selected

    What exactly happens when I select an item from the drop down menu in a combo box? Is it like property Text becomes equal to that selected item?
