Combo Box
Hi,
I am trying to create a combo box for first time. Have followed instructions from Debra Dalgleish website, but the combo box will not appear or be activated when a data validation cell is double clicked. I have also downloaded the example from the website and again when the cell with data validation is double clicked nothing happens. Have I a setting out of place??? Any thoughts Richard |

I have the data validation list set up, however I need the ability for 'autocomplete' when users are typing. Therefore I need the matchentry facility, hence the combo box.
