is it possible to something like the example in this code snippet?

I have a pulldown named VIOLATIONS (it is also using a lookup table). Some users like the select, some like to be able to type and see a list based on the first few characters. Is there a way to do both? I thought perhaps in aspmaker this was possible when choosing TEXT. User could either begin typing on double-click the input box to see all the values in a list.

1. You can enable Use modal dialog for lookup which also supports searching
2. You can enable Allow add to add new option to the lookup

Thanks, that does indeed work. From what I can tell what the user is looking for is a little more old-school. When entering information on this form the user is wanting to avoid going back and forth between the keyboard and mouse. So they click in the first input text, hit tab, input more text into the next field etc. They then hit tab to a SELECT input and would like to type the first letter of their desired value and have the SELECT drop to that letter where they can then hit the down arrow key on the keyboard to their desired value. As it is with the form in question, when they tab to that SELECT and type a letter nothing happens.
