Predictive text?

P

You can create a lookup table through Data, Validation, List. But can you do
a similar thing where the lookup list is sorted depending on what you type
in? eg: If you start to type "peter" the list shortens to items begining with
p when you type "p" and then shortens to items begining with pe when you type
"pe" etc.
Many thanks

Excel will auto complete the word if that same word
already exists directly above or below the validation
cell in the same column. I would move the source list for
the validation cell directly above it, then hide those
cells (rows really).
