    Autocomplete from list

    In the attached workbook I would like to autocomplete B2 as I type from list J2:J37.
    Is this possible?

    .
    Here is one way without VBA :

    Copy your list (J2:J37) and paste into B3.

    Now hide rows #3 to the bottom of the list.


    Each time you type in B2, it will autocomplete based on the list contents that are hidden.

    Thank you.
    That's slick but B3:B11 already have contents.
    Is there another way?

    Method #1 (has autocomplete):

    Method #2 (no autocomplete, acts like a dropdown):
