Default choosing from drop down lists easily

I have several lists that appear as a result of
selections from other list through data validation.

Is there a way to go right to say ..all the words that
begin with "s" by selecting "s" on the keyboard then
toggling thru just the "s's"to make your choose after
activating the proper drop down list. Is there a function
formula or do I need VBA. I get so tired of scolling
thru long lists of data.

Thanks in advance

This is not a feature in Excel, but in Access. No...
