Hi there,
Is it possible for a drop-down list to have quick select or speed select functionality?
For an example, considering the following alphabetized drop-down list "apple, banana, cantaloup, corn, kiwi". If I would like to select "corn", is there a way set-up the drop-down list such that to select "corn" only the first letter of the word "c" needs to be typed, which would bring me to the start of the "c" items in the list to then select "corn". It seems like scrolling the drop down list using the mouse is the only way to choose items.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Skylee

It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
