I want users to be able to enter 3 or 4 characters into a field if these characters have been recognised before then offer them otion of accepting the whole word similar to how excel does it. Is there a procedure anyone has written or do I start from Scratch?

 
Sounds like you need a combo box to me.
If you don't tell it to limit to the list, they can continue to type in stuff not in the list.

If you notice a pattern, you can add them to the list later.
