    Angry ActiveX ComboBox with Auto complete and Jump

    Hello,
    I have a spreadsheet that includes a combobox which fills from a named range.

    I am trying to make this combobox autofill, and I am trying to make it so that if you start typing, it only shows the items that match your typing.

    Does this make sense?
    If it does not I can provide example worksheets.

    Thanks in advance!
    Aaron

    If it's an ActiveX control from the Controls ToolBox then it should auto-complete, but not showing only selected items
    Hope that helps.

    Re: ActiveX ComboBox with Auto complete and Jump

    Can anyone think of a way to force the removal of items from a combobox if they do not match what the user has entered on the fly?

    In theory we could use the Change() event, but I don't know if this allows us to remove items on the fly.

    Thoughts?
